Measure the voltages at the e-fuse and the inductors surrounding the PMIC.

If they are OK, short the safe mode / ROM mode test points and see whether the controller identifies itself.

I shorted the JP1!. Devmgr shows SanDisk Milpitas and there's no disk on disk management! Showing Disk 3 Unknown Not Initialised.

It looks like your SSD has a firmware fault.

As for step-by-step instructions, I have been through this process hundreds of times at this place and others. Also, I've written plenty of tutorials on the subject at HDD Oracle. Please take the time to learn something. After you learn how to drive one car, do you expect that you will need to repeat the process for every other car?
