F7140 I'm getting 12.53 for PPBUS_G3H. Not 12.4 as I posted earlier. Is that still too low. Seems like 12.6v is what I want but that seems pretty close. If it is the SMC do you think it's worth reflowing because it might just be some corrosion. I've seen what it take to replace an SMC and I...
Yes I always use real chargers with correct wattage. I've made that mistake before. Arggg ha ha let's not start over. I'm just getting the hang of where to look. LOL! I think I kinda get how to read the schematics now. I see the little page numbers at the end of a line and it looks like that...
I guess my question is.. how do I figure out where something is going when I'm switching pages. Just hit the next button on the search? Thx for the help and sorry if that's a stupid question.
Ok thanks for that now I see that PP3V3_S3 is not there. Ok so I have to figure out what makes those which as you tell me comes from PM_SLP_S4_L. Ok so now to see where that starts. When searching a schematic for PM_SLP_S4_L I get 5 pages that have it. Is the first page where it starts and is...
Ok so I've checked but I'm not that great with schematics I guess because all I can find is PP5V_S3_RIO, PP5V_S3RSO_ALCAM, PP5V_S3_ALSCAM, etc. No PP5V_S3 alone. And I can't even figure out where PP5V_S3 starts to check that component. I know how to put PP5V_S3 into Open BoardView and see all...
PP3v3_S3 is present
PPBUS_G3H = 12.4v
PP3V3_S5 = 3.4v
PP3V42_G3H = 3.4v
Just no PP5V_S3. I wonder if I could have been an idiot and zapped something when I was trying to jump the power on at SMC on and off. I might have accidentally touched SMC_MANUAL_RST with power. I'm shakey with my...
I watched a video where Louis was trouble shooting a board with no Green/orange light and he tested the PP5V_S3 ( S3 meaning sleep, correct? ) and he got 5v on that rail. How did he get the board to be in a sleep state to test if there was 5V when the board was not powering on?
Ok well I just happened to have another Macbook same model come in and at the magsafe on logic board the voltage is 16.5v. I guess that's normal for schematics to be off that much?
This board has been through a fire! Family friend just lost everything in a fire. I was able to retrieve the Data off of the ssd and thought I'd see if I get good karma and try and fix the Macbook too. It looks like there is no actual fire damage just water damage. I've put it through the...
Well this ship has sailed. I'll be sending it you Mr. Robot.... I mean Mr. Rossmann LOL!! Hey at least you guys give great advice and then get more business when rookies like me can't fix it. On the bright side my Crest500HT showed up and I put a Macbook retina in it that would boot but had...
