HP Pavilion 13-s128nr x360: Not receiving power from block or batt after RAM upgrade

Fri, 24 Apr 2020 10:49:31 -0700

After opening the cover and properly discharging static elec. and using only plastic tools while inside notebook. I disconnect Batt. and remover the weird metal cover in order to add a second 8Gb 2667mhz stick of ram. Once installed and i connected the batt, and now i longer get any power to or from batt, nor do i get any power from 3 different blocks of differeing wattages (nothing detrimental to over powewring hte components…. (I have upgraded and build from scratch over 100 desktop and laptop PCs and ive NEVER had an all component failure in my life, Esp not after a simple opening and adding of a RAM stick in an unused slot.

IMHO it can only point to something possibly shorting VRMs or something similar on the motherboard but i cannot think of a step when i caould have done that.

sorry for the Soapbox, lol… Its difficult to get repairs right now with the Pandemic, any ideas??

Thanks Y’all!

HP Pavilion 13-s128nr x360: Caps Lock key blinks error, device does not boot

Fri, 10 Apr 2020 07:34:31 -0700

I have been helping my brother troubleshoot his laptop, which seemingly died after connecting a device to the USB port. He told me that he connected a high-powered USB device to the laptop, and the display instantly went black.

Holding the power button to power on the computer results in only the fans spinning up. The display does not light up at all. After the computer turns on, the LED light on the Caps Lock key begins blinking a 3.5 code, which appears to mean “The CPU is not detected.”

I have already tried the following troubleshooting steps:

Unplug and reconnect the battery
Power on the computer with the internal keyboard and trackpad cables disconnected
Unplug the CMOS battery for a few minutes
Power on the computer with the power adapter connected, and the battery disconnected.

I would appreciate any advice on further troubleshooting or repair that I can do to attempt to get this laptop working.

Everytime I use my laptop it will start to hum/buzz. It could range from 10 min of use to 40 min of use. Then when I put it in a certain position it will stop, but when I put back to the original position it will start again.
