So, I'm having a bit of trouble getting the voltage regulator to work.
I've already tested and trimmed the wii. But when I hook it up to the PMS with a battery and charger, there is no voltage coming from 1v, 3.3v, or 1.15v pads. I read that the RVL PMS doesn't turn on until a charger is plugged in, but I have a button and charger hooked up with about 5v reading on the charging pad. The battery is one of four Samsung 18650 3500mAh batteries which was giving off a stable 3.5v when soldered in. Ignore the one or two wires that are loose, they're ones I'm either not using or came out after I tested. I've triple checked that all the wires are on the correct pads and checked each one for continuity.
Could there be a short I'm not aware of on the board? I haven't taken the time to clean it yet. Or should I cut my losses and buy a new PMS?
