    820-3462 no green light after U7000/Q7080 replacement

    I was using genuine chargers but good idea to try lab psu. Lab PSU at 16.6v gets orange light and fans did spin but not for long. Now dead again. Orange light stays on when plug charger pp3v42 3.4v ppdcin_s5_chgr 16.42v chgr_agate_div 15.68 so left side of Q7080 should be conducting yet...

    820-3462 no green light after U7000/Q7080 replacement

    Customers board not turning on. No corrosion evident. Replaced U7000 and Q7080 and seemed to fix but trackpad cursor had jerkiness. Very quickly went bad again. The 68k ohm sparkitecture resistor was not 68kohm so I replaced it with 68kohm and some changes occurred. Green light would come on...

    820-2850 green light, fan spin, no chime or video

    Oh does that "1V8R1V55" mean 1.8v or 1.55v is ok? History: owner said it was bought refurbished from Apple. Had a loose hinge screw that just needed tightening. No corrosion evident. Im a BIOS virgin Im afraid. I do have a CH341A programmer bought in anticipation. Hope it will do. I don't have a...

    820-2850 green light, fan spin, no chime or video

    I was using a 60W charger! I didn't know about the 85W requirement :) I switched to using an 85W charger and I am getting the same symptoms but now not needing the battery connected to get some activity. So still no chime or video or USB activity. Wondering where to go from here

    820-01237 iMac going slow

    Many thanks for your help 2informaticos. I think the speed of the SSD does compensate for the suspecting slow running so they may be happy - but Im keen to find ways to debug these issues. Question: Is there a utility or unix command to confirm slowed processing? Throttling Question: Is it...

    820-01237 iMac going slow

    Yes the slowness and semi frequent SBBOD was there before anyone opened the iMac. It is the sole reason customer has brought me it. I tried booting with the webcam removed - no difference sadly. LCD sensor reports 129c when screen disconnected and 25c when connected so no suspicion there...

    820-01237 iMac going slow

    The temps as reported by HWMonitor.app were with the original Apple supplied spinning HDD. I do see SBBOD . I’ve replaced the HDD with a Samsung evo 960 [and a SATA extension that hopefully grounds the temp sensor pin] the 249c has now become 129c. Fan still wants to spin fast and SBBOD still...

    820-01237 iMac going slow

    Are schematics, boardview and diagnostics available for this board? Link appreciated if so. Are there any common problems with this one? Fan is going fast and HWMonitor.app reports high temps on HDD bay 1 (249c), HDD bay 2 (129) and GPU 2 die (129)

    Will the external monitor be detected if the OS is not booted?

    A1311 820-3126 iMac with frequent wait cursor SBBOD

    I don't understand what you just said. I am wondering whether video is output via thunderbolt when the logic board realises the LCD panel is not connected.

    A1311 820-3126 iMac with frequent wait cursor SBBOD

    Thats a good question - how I came to the conclusion to join pin1 to pin7 which now looks like joining two grounds together. Before I figure out why I did this do you mind if I ask another question on logistics.... With the LCD screen removed from the iMac will video be available via the...

    A1311 820-3126 iMac with frequent wait cursor SBBOD

    Yes sorry Ive updated the title now. I have managed to work out its a 820-3126 logic board on this iMac although only by comparing its layout with what 820 logic boards sell as a logic board for an A1311 - I haven't removed the board yet and I think the actual board number must be on the hidden...
