MKRGSM1400 - VIN (bq24195 dead?)

Hello,
I have two boards.
Been running them powered using the mkr-rs485 module. All good.

Recently one of the board doesnt work, but with a battery connected. Its no problem.
Charge lit up and everything act as normal.

Disconnect the battery again and its dead, Seems like the bq24195L doesnt produce 3.8V out on the pin, SYS.

Been testing out with some i2c-communications to the bq24195. But not there yet..

Anyone else experienced this?
Or have any sketch working to check statuses on bq24195?

Hmm, Dont know whats wrong, no fault codes. Nothing really off with the registers.
Might be somewhere else the problem on my board is..

Put some code together to read the registers. Use at your own risk.

Another Sketch to read out the registers. Still fighting with the fast blinking orange led coming out like a bolt from the blue...

#include <Wire.h>

#define PMIC_ADDRESS 0x6B

char debug = 1;

// this is for measuring battery voltage.
const long InternalReferenceVoltage = 1062;  // Adjust this value to your board's specific internal BG voltage

void setup() {
 
  if (debug) {
    //Initialize serial and wait for port to open:
    Serial.begin(9600);
    while (!Serial) {
      ; // wait for serial port to connect. Needed for native USB port only
    }
  }

  Wire.begin();
}

void loop() {
 
  if (debug) Serial.println("Reading voltage");
  int sensorValue = analogRead(ADC_BATTERY);
  // Convert the analog reading (which goes from 0 - 1023) to a voltage (0 - 4.3V):
  float voltage = sensorValue * (4.3 / 1023.0);
  if (debug) Serial.println("Voltage: "+String(voltage));

  byte reg, val;
 
   byte BQ_REG[10] = { 0x00, 0x01, 0x2, 0x03, 0x04, 0x05, 0x06,0x07,0x08, 0x09 };

  // byte BQ_REG[2] = { 0x00,0x09 };

  for (int r = 0; r < sizeof(BQ_REG); r++) {

    reg = BQ_REG[r];

    Wire.beginTransmission(PMIC_ADDRESS);
    Wire.write((byte)reg);
    Wire.endTransmission();
   
    Wire.beginTransmission(PMIC_ADDRESS);
    Wire.requestFrom(PMIC_ADDRESS, 1);
    Wire.endTransmission();
   
    val = Wire.read();

    char valHex[10];

    sprintf(valHex,"%02X",val);
   
    String value = "0x"+String(valHex);
   
    if (debug) Serial.println("Registry 0x0"+String(reg)+": "+value);

  }


  delay(2000);
}

The fast blinking on the charger chip was caused by a ublox gps connected by i2c. Since the charger chip is connected to the i2c, the blinking was a panic reaction to a massive fault on the bus caused by the ublox module
