<p>Need some help on this one.</p>
<p>Just had a Switch that ain't strating anymore. The last owner told me that it doens't used it during a long time and when he tryied it, it didn't start anymore...</p>
<p> </p>
<p>So i check the battery inside and i got 2.5V so i think this one's dead, no?</p>
<p>When i plug the ubc charger i got those mesures :</p>
<p>15V</p>
<p>0.12A</p>
<p><a href="https://zupimages.net/viewer.php?id=22/48/en2b.jpg" target="_blank" rel="noopener">https://zupimages.net/viewer.php?id=22/48/en2b.jpg</a></p>
<p> </p>
<p>I tried an other battery ( 3.8v tested) and i got those measures :</p>
<p>15v</p>
<p>0.47A</p>
<p><a href="https://zupimages.net/viewer.php?id=22/48/tdae.jpg" target="_blank" rel="noopener">https://zupimages.net/viewer.php?id=22/48/tdae.jpg</a></p>
<p>better ones but still not booting, and no screen nor sound ...</p>
<p> </p>
<p>I check the M92,the PI3 USB and the BQ24 chips, it seems to be okay, no caps shorted.</p>
<p>But i've got a lot of caps shorted around the 3 MAXX77 chip.</p>
<p><a href="https://zupimages.net/viewer.php?id=22/48/zklt.jpg" target="_blank" rel="noopener">https://zupimages.net/viewer.php?id=22/48/zklt.jpg</a></p>
<p><a href="https://zupimages.net/viewer.php?id=22/48/qvrs.jpg" target="_blank" rel="noopener">https://zupimages.net/viewer.php?id=22/48/qvrs.jpg</a></p>
<p>I don't know exactly which ones must be coils or caps, but i know this is not normal for somes. I know maybe there are caps with small resistance that can bip tduring test.</p>
<p>Tx a lot ! </p>
