I got this board after someone droped a screw on it with battery conected. Result is in picture.
Image
I replaced PU4501, repaired missing track and now i have 3,3V. KBC was overheating, so i repleced it too.
I have 3,3V, 5V, 1.05V, but after pressing power switch all i get is orange LED near power connector, working only as long as switch is pressed. DCBATOUT is only 12V on power supply, or 16 on battery, so i changed PU4401 too. Did not help. All tranzistors around it are OK.
Any advice please.
TIA Matus.

Measurements taken after pressing the power on button.
Measure the voltages on pins 4, 18, 27, 36, 52, 122, 128 of KBC.
Measure the voltages on pin 126 of the KBC in the following cases:
to power OFF
with power on pressed
to power "ON".

- Measure the voltages to ground on both pins of quartzs X1802, X2401 (if both are present). It's best to measure it with an oscilloscope, if you don't have it, measure with a multimeter.
- Measure the voltage to ground on pin 3 of diode D2503.
Diode D2503 pinout:

- Measure the voltages to ground on pins 5, 25, 29, 30, 31, 54, 66, 69, 88, 121 of KBC chip.

- Measure the voltages to ground on pins 52, 127 of KBC chip in the following cases:
a) Power button released.
b) Power button pressed.
