The invention discloses a PCBA short-circuit point detection method. The method comprises the following steps: selecting a circuit network, setting a base point, setting a measurement point, selectinga measurement instrument, selecting accessories, measuring resistance, judging resistance, updating the measurement point according to the resistance, comparing the distance between the measurement points, judging a short-circuit region, repeatedly detecting and obtaining a final conclusion. The beneficial effects of the invention are that: a plurality of measurement points are arranged; the fault range can be quickly reduced, thus improving detection efficiency, and the frequency required by detection is reduced; accessory with consistent specification, the consistency of influence factors of accessories can be ensured; the detection method is advantaged in that the same external influence on different areas during detection is guaranteed, detection precision is improved, through settingmultiple times of detection, multiple times of detection results are integrated, detection correctness is guaranteed, detection accuracy is improved, short circuit points do not need to be checked one by one, and printed circuit board short circuit point detection efficiency is improved.
