Would someone please tell me the fuse location of Acer Chromebook CB315-3H?

Marwhitt

Have done troubleshooting. I believe the fuse is bad, but don't know where it is. Have looked at videos for other Acer Chromebooks, but this one looks different under the back cover.

Thanks.

You need to chase the power charging USB-C on the mainboard (see below) circuitries and trace the fault, the fuse circuit could be one of the problems as there could be other power circuits associated issues. Take your laptop to an experienced technician that can fix your laptop and don't attempt to do it yourself as you will do more damage than fix anything. Acer does not have a full Chromebook CB315-3H mainboard circuitry diagram, so we can't tell you exactly where this power fuse is, your power failure and/or charging failure could be from a shorted mosat or capacitor that is on the primary power circuitry trace that needs to be tested and diagnosed by an experience technician and pin pointed where it is. I've included the full caption of the mainboard and USB board of all the ports on this laptop for your information.
