Re: Asus P8Z77-V LE shorted mosfet twice



The 1 ohm resistor on the gate of the damaged MOSFET measures ~1.5 ohms. I will replace it. Thanks!



Will look into these. Thank you!...

Hi guys,

Noob here. I've done Arduino-type stuff, but not much on troubleshooting and repairs.

I have an Asus P8Z77-V LE (v1.03) motherboard that just turned off by itself one day. The 12V was shorted, and a single PH7030L mosfet at PQ141 was shorted (all pins = ground). I removed the mosfet, verified the short was gone, then replaced the mosfet. This worked for about 10 minutes, then it just shutdown again. Same as before, 12V shorted, the replacement mosfet shorted again.

I think the next step is to change mosfet driver, correct? I found these chips...

Hi guys,

I'm here to try and hopefully find a fix for my Asus motherboard.
