    [SOLVED]A1502 820-3476-A USB on I/O board disabled

    Found that pin 1 (USB_EXTB) on R1581 wasn't actually making contact, so removed that, cleaned the pads and replaced it. The right USB seems to be working now. Those 0201 resistors aren't great to solder!

    [SOLVED]A1502 820-3476-A USB on I/O board disabled

    I took off R1583 with the intention of replacing it, but when its off the board, it has 99.8k resistance which it perfect really.

    To give the board an even heat. Without preheating the board, a lot of the heat applied with the rework gun will be lost into the ground planes of the board resulting in "popcorning" the chips.

    Thank you Duke, R1580 is 3.28v on USB_EXTA, 3.33v on PP3v3 - 98.3kohm R1583 is 3.21v on USB_EXTD, 3.33v on PP3v3, - 78.6kohm Apart from the 78.6kohm on R1583, they look pretty okay, maybe 3.21v on R1583 is a bit low also. What do you think? Thanks again for helping, I hope I gave enough...

    [SOLVED]A1466 - 820-3437 - Backlight works but only on low

    I'm trying to find out if there is a problem with the actual backlight or the circuit. I'm getting around 24v on PPHV_S0SW_LCDBKLT until the brightness is turned up, then it jumps all over. I don't have another assembly for this model in stock to simply try another. What do you recon the odds...

    I have a brand new IO board that I have tested with but I've got the ribbon connector on order. Don't suppose the 13" air version ribbon could be used to test with could it? I know it isn't the same shape but I have one to hand is all. I have found that if I plug the charger into another mac...

    [SOLVED]820-3435 No charger lights - no power

    I think the charger went crazy when I moved the board. I'm getting around 0.4v on the middle pin. On D7005 pin 1 PPBUS_G3H i get .04v Sorry for the fuck up before
