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

Sun, 07 Jul 2024 12:56:29 -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

Sat, 18 Mar 2023 09:44:24 -0700

i have a HP probook 430 g6 and it is turning on fine and working flawlessly except charging the battery. i bought and installed a new battery and it can run on the battery power that came in the new battery but it wont charge at all (i've tried using both the dc power jack and the usb c for charging). i did already try all of the software solutions i could find online without success like holding the power button down for 15 - 30 seconds and deleting the windows driver for the battery. it still doesn't charge it shows an orange light and it looks like it is charging but no incoming power is reaching the battery. does anyone know how to (attempt to) fix this problem?
