    820-02037-A Nand Shorted

    Thanks for the link - currently it has 6 NAND Chips on the board in total - presumably that's 1TB - I can just order 1TB, fit and run a DFU restore and it'll work?

    820-02037-A Nand Shorted

    So i got a Macbook Pro 16 in last week with no power (5V 0.30A). Diagnosed it down to PP2v5_NAND_SSD0 shorted - injected 1V onto that line saw U9580 heating up - under close microscope inspection can see U9580 had exploded - removed U9580, replaced and now got 20V 0.30A draw and looping. One of...

    A2141 Question mark

    I had the same problem with an A1989 and it turned out to be a faulty touchbar - if your touchbar isn't working then i'd try and unplug it then see if it'll let you load the OS. If your successful a replacement touchbar will be required.

    Macbook A2159 Overheating

    I just had the exact same issue on A1989 - a faulty touchbar caused the issue - try to disconnect it and then reinstall the OS.

    A1989 2018 Will not install the OS

    As a final update to this turns out the problem was the touchbar - it was not lighting up and after replacing it with a new one the machine no longer reboots and works normally.

    A1989 2018 Will not install the OS

    Diagnostics run - no issues found. The machine is randomly turning off and rebooting however - guess i'll take the board out and inspect it under the microscope.

    A1989 2018 Will not install the OS

    Ok so after beating Mac OS into submission with it refusing to image the target mac I managed to finally get it to image my catalina image across from recovery mode on my M2 Macbook Air. It refused to do it within the normal OS. I really do hate that Apple broke imaging completely with Big Sur...

    A1989 2018 Will not install the OS

    Well as for ethernet connection it refuses to acknowledge the existence of Ethernet when its connected and still asks for wifi! I took the macbook home with me to try on a different faster internet connection - it actually got all the way into internet recovery once and then shut down part way...

    A1989 2018 Will not install the OS

    So i've got an A1989 2018 year model in - stuck on flashing folder with ? Internet recovery I have tried with multiple different wifi networks and it doesn't start it gives the 2003F error every single time. I tried to boot to external drive with Mac OS on it - you can't do that because of...

    Macbook Pro A1990 Liquid Damage 820-01041A

    Well this story at least has a good ending - I tried the revive on another Macbook - Apple configurator said it needed an update which I said yes to - it closed Apple configurator then offered the revive or restore through Finder. I chose Revive on finder and this time it went all the way...

    Macbook Pro A1990 Liquid Damage 820-01041A

    Now i'm already 90% certain the SSD is dead on this one but if there's anything else I can check let me know! 820-01041A received with liquid damage around U9000 and U9080 - cleaned up all and: Board Charges the battery USB C meter negotiates to 20V but does not start no fan spin. All...

    Macbook Air A2681- 820-02536 stuck at 5v after liquid damage

    odd maybe the ISL9240 on my donor board was bad!

    Macbook Air A2681- 820-02536 stuck at 5v after liquid damage

    ISL9240 does not work there can confirm. Received my order of RAA489900A6 from China this morning - fitted one and board is now working perfectly!

    Macbook Air A2681- 820-02536 stuck at 5v after liquid damage

    Confirmed still low without c5275 and c5277. Pulled u5200 which cleared the bad reading completely. Any good source for U5200? I cant use ISL9240 from the older boards right?

    Macbook Air A2681- 820-02536 stuck at 5v after liquid damage

    Diode mode of VDDP = 0.091 - seems a bit low to me but it's not shorted to ground totally Diode mode of VDDA = 0.088 - also seems a bit low R5275 and R5276 testing good. Done a bit more digging and I think the problem looks to be on VDDA given that resistance at pin 1 of R5275 151Ohms to ground...

    Macbook Air A2681- 820-02536 stuck at 5v after liquid damage

    replaced R5215 which has given me 0.87v on AUX_DET now. CHGR_AUX_DET_SHORT_3V3 is 0V Voltage at C5252 still 0v CHGR_RST_IN = 0v CHGR_VDDA = 0.144v CHGR_VDDP = 0.100v CHGR_EN_MVR = 0.001V AUX_OK = 0v (still cant get the probes on it very easily so unsure) CHGR_AMON = 0.001v CHGR_BMON = 0.001v...

    Macbook Air A2681- 820-02536 stuck at 5v after liquid damage

    P_IN = 5.2V AUX_DET= 0v CHGR_RST_IN = 0v CHGR_VDDA = 0.142v CHGR_VDDP = 0.096V CHGR_EN_MVR = 0v AUX_OK = 0v (unsure on this as I cannot get the probes under the shield very easily!) CHGR_AMON =0v CHGR_BMON = 0v

    Macbook Air A2681- 820-02536 stuck at 5v after liquid damage

    Presuming you mean c5252 - theres no voltage there with F5200 removed. Reading 0.1v Diode mode on PPBUS_AON is 0.515, resistance to ground 10MOHm
