Microsoft Surface Pro 6: Battery problem and internet wide failure to find solution!

Wed, 13 Nov 2024 15:53:04 -0700

I have completed a battery replacement in my Surface Pro 6 and am pretty confident I did it right. I am getting a “No Battery Detected” message and have tried every solution offered by my Google Search.

Fortunately I have not yet fully glued the screen back.

What I would like to understand is if there is a way to test the battery I have installed and if it is charging that uses some kind of meter and doesn’t rely on software.

Thank you

Microsoft Surface Pro 6: OK for CPU Temp to reach 355 F (Core i7)?

Thu, 22 Oct 2020 21:08:42 -0700

Hi, I have a problem with my Micro$oft $urface. It is getting very hot (cpu temp goes all the way up to 355 degrees F with only ~10 min of light usage). I honestly hate this computer, I wish to get rid of it. Once it got so hot it literally burned me. When this computer gets hot, it’s usually accompanied by lag and slow mouse pointer movement. I checked in Resource Monitor and nothing in the background is slowing it down, so it is obviously a hardware problem. Fan is working fine, it is running like crazy but the CPU is getting too hot. I DO NOT EXPECT THIS FROM A $2000+ COMPUTER! I am not trying to fix it, just please tell me what could possibly be wrong. Thank you

Microsoft Surface Pro 6: nand fitting on surface pro 6

Mon, 22 Feb 2021 04:20:44 -0700

I have a surface pro 6 which has had the nand chip removed and whoever carried out the removal has damaged some of the bga pads. Is it possible to fit a replacement nand in the second location instead. I have watched a youtube video of somebody swapping nand chips so its possible I think.

Hi here are some photos of the affected bga pads, I am not sure which ones need to be connected as I don’t have a schematic.

Microsoft Surface Pro 6: Spilled oil on my Surface Pro and it seeped inside.

Mon, 07 Jan 2019 06:11:03 -0700

I spilled oil on my Surface Pro 6 tablet and it seeped inside the left speaker causing some display damage (streaks and blotches). Some also seeped inside the top vents and got trapped above the camera and under the display casing. The tablet is still functional as well as the blotched areas.

What can I do?
