HP ProBook 430 G2: Why power button and caps lock flashes once then turns off?

Wed, 22 Jul 2026 08:19:06 -0700

Good day, i have Hp Probook 430 G2 laptop. When i plug it in charging LED indicator lits but when i start it up the power and caps lock LEDs blink once and shuts down immediately together with charging LED indicator and the charging LED indicator turns on again. Already tried hard resetting it by disconnecting the battery and the charger and pressing the power button for couple of minutes. I tried different charger, recovery of BIOS using bootable flash disk but not responding also tried replacing and cleaning the RAM. What could be the possible problem? Thanks

HP ProBook 430 G8: Unknown SMD component, now melted on motherboard

Thu, 26 Feb 2026 07:24:10 -0700

Hi,

I am trying to identify a component on my HP Probook 430 G8 laptop Motherboard. I accidentally shorted the battery to this component.

Motherboard :

Model X8P

Year 2020

DA0X8PMB8F0 Rev: F

See photos of the component. I have lifted a trace when cleaning the area, but I believe it is fixable. I bought a 2nd laptop to try and help me get the first one working. I de-soldered what what looks to be the same component from the donor laptop.

The component is an 0603 from measuring 1.6mm between the solder tabs.

I used my DER EE DE-5000 LCR meter and get:

0.5 millihenry

0.010 milliohms

0.9 to 1.1 nanofarads

I am not sure what to order. It doesn't look like a capacitor, the resistance seems to low to be a resistor, and I can't find 0.5 millihenry inductors..... can you please help me order the correct part?

Broken laptop (Below)

(The orange led at the charge port fades in and out as orange)

Donor board whose part I measured. (Below)

I have now MAYBE identified the mosfet that is connected to the component.

Final repair
