Sony Arc usb ammeter not reading, not charging

Block Image

Hello!

Attached is a picture of the Sony Arc. Where I am pointing there is a short at this capacitor. (Bare with me if I say anything wrong, just started learning how to fault find)


Phone is not showing any amp reading. Checked the charging port readings and it seems to be connecting to where it should be. This faulty capacitor seems to be on the same line as the charging port.


What would you do from this point? What should I do with this capacitor? Should I change this or the charging ic?

Thank you. Any answers will help :) Just to note, there is no water damage and the battery is new

@zenrepair that looks like a fuse. Let us know how you determined it has a short. Check it for voltage once your battery/power is reconnected on one of the contacts (either side) and see if it gets power. Check it for continuity. Also, let us know which Arc this is LT15i, LT18i etc.
