I flash BIOS but not fixed.
mac working ,charging and responsible to REST SMC via keyboard
I have other same mac and test to swap lcd bot no display.
please what is yours suggestion.
"Some people complain this board didn't start without both charger and battery connected. "
yes exactly true must both be connected.
it works fine but i replace both 7100 and 7501
thanks for your support.
PCH_INTRUDER_L 3.04v , and PCH_INTVRMEN 3.23v.
PM_SLP_S5_L , PM_SLP_S4_L , PM_SLP_S3_L PM_SLP_S0_L none of them pulse when i trigger SMC_ONOFF_L
stay at 0v level .
PM_PWRBTN_L , SMC_ONOFF_L , are 3.34v
PCH_SRTCRST_L , RTC_RESET_L are 3.3v
PCH_CLK32K_RTCX1 is 0.43v
PM_PWRBTN_L drops to 0.36v when SMC_ONOFF_L triggered
Fan starts normally and rapidly go to full speed due to CPU gets hot.
I try more than SSD all not detected in Disk Utility and its works fine in other machine properly.
REBALLING SMC THEN REFLASH BIOS FIX THE PROBLEM
THANKS 2informaticos
Also PM_BATLOW_L control by pch may be cpu chip defective?
note: mac can boot from battery but ssd not be detected and temperature of cpu is very high and fan full speed spaining.
I check it 10k ohm and fin connected to surrounding components and the impedance between PM_BATLOW_L and ground is about 3M Ohm, also i check PP3V3_S4 transistor Q3000 no problem.
Yes I use original charger and test other charger but the same situation
When I trigger SMC_ONOFF_L pulse of PM_PWRBTN_L drop from 3.41 to 0.34 but no boot up fan not spin
IT STARTS NORMALLY FROM BATTERY BUT NOT DETECTS SSD.
I APPLIED SMC RESET AND PRAM RESET BUT NOT BOOT FROM CHARGER
when AC adapter connected fan not spain and charging led turns to red without attaching battery , when battery is attached charging led go to green and macbook works ,when i remove battery mac still working , in other hand macbook boot up and ssd not recognized and cpu temperature is so high...
