    A2442 820-02098 Heavy liquid Damage and short on PPBUS_AON

    It turned out that the caps on the other side were shorting. PPBUS_AON is stable now. However, that middle amplifier had corroded pads and had to remove it. together with a bunch of filtering caps around it. It seems to be the same amplifier as -02100 SN012776B0YBH Without it, it turns on now...

    A2442 820-02098 Heavy liquid Damage and short on PPBUS_AON

    Using the magsafe charger stuck at 5V PPBUS_AON - 0.169V with fuses on; 12.93V with removed fuses. Seems like U5200 is fine. Shall I lift up all coils and determine where it is reaching? Particularly audio amplifiers look bad , but no direct short

    A2442 820-02098 Heavy liquid Damage and short on PPBUS_AON

    Thanks for the explanation. Much appreciated. I use this portable buck converted with CV/CC protection, and I usually set/limit it to 2.5A with 2V when injecting, and if nothing heats up, then I start ramping up the current (if CC triggers) or voltage(if line permits). This time it was not...

    A2442 820-02098 Heavy liquid Damage and short on PPBUS_AON

    I am aware of the Ohm law, but I haven't thought of how it will apply in this scenario. What first-hand materials would you suggest for basic electronics knowledge? My 50Ohm on the PPBUS_AON fuses now measures 150Ohm. PPBUS_AON - 0.152 (both ways in diode mode), still lower than TCSR reported...

    A2442 820-02098 Heavy liquid Damage and short on PPBUS_AON

    Fuse Side - 50Ohm. I cannot find the same or lower value on any coils. The closest I get is 120Ohms. I usually use this little buck converter with a Lithium battery limited to 2V and 2.5A. I also tried with the 1V and 2V 15A linear bench supply. But not pulling any current. Strange. -...

    A2442 820-02098 Heavy liquid Damage and short on PPBUS_AON

    Bit shooting in the dark here without schematic and boardview. I can detect shorts in the PPBUS_AON fuses. I pushed 2V through the shorted PPBUS_AON line but did not pull any current. Perhaps too low voltage to trigger any short. Anything to consider before I ramp up the injected voltage to...

    A1398 820-3332 tries to turn on 0A - 0.4A - 0A after previous black screen issue and shorted Q7510

    Had this before with a 2013 A1398 model as described by TCRS - . Resoldering pads resolved the problem in that case. Thought this could be the same as it wasn't showing internal video, but external seemed to be working. Agree. I should not have touched U7400. The low resistance on its pins...

    A1398 820-3332 tries to turn on 0A - 0.4A - 0A after previous black screen issue and shorted Q7510

    Hi Guys, Have this board that has a black internal screen but used to work on the external screen. A graphic load software won't start on the external screen. Thought it could be a U8900 cold joint issue and resoldered it, in the process resoldered U7400 as well. Afterwards, the board won't...

    SOLVED - 820-00165 - Not Charging Battery, although shows charging sign and runs off a battery

    Thanks, suspecting the SMC reset after fixing that traces didn't go well. Tested with third battery and start charging. When I placed the original battery now, it is pulling >1A current, but seems like internally is not functioning well as it shuts down the minute I pull the plug. Works with...

    820-3642 Switching off on battery, while battery shows charging at 100%

    I got this Macbook not turning on with slight oxidation around C3898/99 on the PP15V_TBT line. I cleaned and replaced the caps, and now I am getting 15V on the PP15V_TBT line. It worked fine for a week, then shut down and would not turn on anymore. After reconnecting, the battery now turns on...

    820-00165 - Charging and turning on on Bench PSU, but no light or voltages on Apple chargers

    Replaced U3220, no corrosion around/at J3200. UC must have cleaned it. With Replaced U3220 I have lost video on external completely (Only Black Screen). Returned the chip back, but still no video. Perhaps heating in the area must have separated corroded U2800 balls. Reflowed U2800 by removing...

    Well had liquid damage. And I don't have a spare one to test. But with a disconnected screen and turning on the machine I would have thought I will get something on the USBc HDMI output Unless I get a spare LCD to test seems like I'm at a dead-end
