USB-C port failure

USB-C ports (soldered to motherboard)

Owner noted ports are soldered to the motherboard and asked about authorized repair options in Australia, expecting significant downtime as a main driver device.

Boot failure (4 logo flashes then black screen)

Likely motherboard / power management (PMIC)

Surface Pro 9 (i5, 16GB) drained to 0% and then stuck in a boot loop: Windows logo flashes exactly four times, then black screen with backlight remaining on. Owner tried original and PD chargers, forced restarts, and swapping back to the OEM SSD with no success, asking whether the 4-blink failure means a dead motherboard.
