Can't thank you anymore sir, THANK YOU for making this video!!! I have ROG GL553VD not charging and about going to do the exact same way as this video demonstrates. But when i wanna open the screw, I suddenly have the urge to charge it first to check whether it's working or not. Surprisingly, it charged!! Then I remember if I left this thing in low battery state and the reason it worked again because perhaps the CMOS running out of the battery due to lack of battery capacity. Phew, now the trouble is gone! Back then i thought the capacitor/resistor/MOSFET is going to be replaced, i've guessed it's due to short. But now, it's wonderfully back to normal again 😃😃

Hi Sorin. I'm viewing many of your videos and they are great. About this particular problem, I have found them on many, many laptops with and without battery inside. Usually the process is to take out the battery or disconnect it and plug it back again and that's it. I think it's some kind of protection on the battery that makes the charging/power process to be blocked.

[@OriGiNaLxGoD]

That didn't work for me. My laptop is a year old... I'm pretty pissed because it's dead, and since this didn't work idk really what to do now. And I don't want to have to bring it in somewhere, but looks like I will have to. Knowing my luck, it's probably the power inlet that's messed up from having the cord dangling off the desk.

[@petrnavratil2084]

Hi, Mr Sorin I'd like to mention my experience. If I check the charger I use a resistor to load charger. At least 5W 10 ohms or whatever I find and than I do measuring to find out If the voltage drops down. I know You use your own charger to fix the computer but if you want to check a client's charger. It may show you false result without load
