Thermal shutdown on Razer Blade Stealth Late 2019 GTX

Hello,

I'm facing diffuculties booting Arch (or any other Linux, triede Manjaro and Kubuntu). While bootin the system instantly shuts down due to wrong thermal readings.

Output: thermal thermal_zone1: critical temperature reached (198 C), shutting down

I could only spot the problem after recording the output on video, as everything is happening too fast. Sadly I cannot even give more Information, as I can't even get into any live usb.

I already tries setting thermal.nocrt=1. Second attempt using thermal.off=1 as kernel parameter did also not chasnge the situation.

Any ideas?

Best,
Stefan

Short update. Tried later this afternoon. Behavior is the same, but it was thermal_zone3 and 238 C.

My best guess is that it is meassured ambient temperature x10. Any idea on howro further debug it? Also what could be the reason for kernel igoring the thermal options?

This thing is driving me mad. Obviously the reading can't be correct... After driving to work today I booted up an artox live stick as the Bootup time of Systemd makes debugging this impossible.
To my suprise Artix booted up without any issue. All temperature zones also looked fine...

So I rebooted to the Arch USB stick. Even more suprised it also booted up just fine and the problem seems to be gone...

Anyway, the laptop was quite new and I am exchanging it for a new one as i fear some underlying HW problem. I'll give a final update after the exchange.
