good morning.
I got an a1708 with no big liquid damage. After replacing Topcase and Battery everthing is working good. The customer was happy, but now he came back after 6 month with audio problem.
I found during I replaced the topcase I damaged the flexcable from the headphone jack port. I...
no, in this moment i dont have one.

the A1706 with the bad battery consumes maximum during booting 1,07A later less.
