Symptoms

  • Not turning on.
  • Pulling only 24–25 mA from the charge port.

Solution

  • PM_SLP_S4_L missing for random reason, thoroughly inspect clock chip, tiny specks of corrosion next to it can kill it. Sometimes shotgun replacement of the chip is a clean solution.
  • CHGR_DCIN_D_R shorted to ground.
  • Bad right I/O board. Unplug it, see if it works (short on 3.3 V or 5 V rail on the I/O board can cause this problem).
