Device came in with Question mark .
It goes into internet recovery and I am able to format and go for re installing the MacOS. but the device heats up and shuts down.
No dirt or corrosion on the board. Please help.
Tried DFU Restore/Revive
The issue the machine is sometime booting up to password screen. Sometimes stuck after only chime. Sometimes stuck at apple logo with loading bard half full / 75% full or 100% full.
Once I got a black screen error message "Device restarted because of an issue"
I replaced R3740 . Looked broken to me.
After replacement I switched on the just the board and display connected. I reached the login screen.
Now after installing everything . I hear the chime and then nothing. Not even the apple logo.
I tested again with just screen. Same - only chime and nothing.
I didn't go into disk utility.In this one sometimes I get the question mark sign and sometimes it gets stuck at the apple logo with the loading bar full.
On another board it boots up into the password screen
But SSD isn't recognized . SSD is fine - working on another board
