I found a short on the SSD Power management ic. I removed the chip and 4 caps and the short is still there. I tested caps the back side of the board and none of those was shorted. Thinking it might be the ssd controller chip but didn’t want to do that till the last resort. I not real confident in my…

[image] EDM 010 - SSD Controller or DDR4 Error PS5 Questions what’s your resistance readings on those output voltages? [image] What resistance to ground do you measured on that “shorted” area?

put your prob on the 6 phase cpu mosfet coils you will also have “short“ to ground but it is just low impedance. Measure the actual resistance value and post here. Like the link img I provided, a 100 ohm to ground is measured from a working board, it might give your multimeter “beeps” but it is not …

Sorry just got back. This is what I got. [IMG_1442]
