So, I was dis-assembling this console,CECH-L04 VER-001 Motherboard.
I disconnected the power supply cable from the motherboard and bam, the connector was on the cable. The pad was not removed

So, I applied some flux, re-soldered it back. There are no lights.

Any idea ? @Mr.Dutch

you did solder it back the way it was, you did not rotate the connector?...lol , probably not, else the cable to psu will rotate too.

the soldering looks ok, did you allready measured pin 3 and 4? 5V

Na, Soldered it correctly.

EDIT : Do these pins have to be soldered on to the board ?


Is there any alternate points for that pins ? ( rounded ) @Mr.Dutch

they have no function, and btw they are soldered to ground.
do you have a meter to check if the 5V reach the board?

EDIT: @MJ999 , btw with no light you mean not even a standby led?

also measure resistance between the 4 solder points (pins that are next to each other) and all the pins to ground if there's not a short.

obvious pin 3 is ground, pin 2 is technically ground?

No, the standby LED is not showing up.

Yep, I will measure that.

EDIT : @Mr.Dutch So, I checked for continuity between those 3 points, found out 1 pin ( Black ) does not have continuity whereas 2 & 4 ( Orange ) have continuity

like this in the picture?

EDIT: @MJ999 , or measured to ground

No, those two points,like you did on the picture.

did you try to bridge those points with a wire, looking at the trace between them they should be connected right?

judge the trace yourself, and if you also think those two points should be connected then bridge them.

also measure point 1 to ground if there isnt a short, the solder looks abit like it would short.

To confirm this, I disassemble another ps3, checked continuity on those points.

Yes, there is continuity, So I am going to bridge the connection.

Thanks.

let me know if it works...

P.S if possible measure voltage between pin1 to pin 2 (or/and pin3) on standby mode
i'm curious what you read.
