Hi thanks , yes dc in board ive tried 3 new ones , will try changing the smc, does the smc have to be from an 820-3332 or could i use one from a similar board ?
ok thats wierd, the magsafe shows a green light on another board , but changed i anyway for a new one and guess what i have 2.9v at adaptor sense, but still no green light ,the other voltages are as before
820-3332 no green light, im a little confused , i have ppbus g3 and pp3v42, at u6900 pin 1 (sm_bc_acok) i have 3.4v pin 5 (adaptor_sense) i have 5.15v, at pin 4 (sys_onewire) i have 3.4V but no green light ?, forgot to say no signs of any liquid damage anyway
ok thanks , looks like its the smc, does anyone know of any UK suppliers where i can get the stensil from or an smc, had this laptop for a couple of weeks now and dont really want to order from overseas
Hi ive got an 820-2936 board with liquid damage, at first board would not turn on , thats all sorted then there was no audio and thats sorted but now its not seeing the battery, at r5280 i get 3.4v each side and r5281 i get 3.4v pin 1 and 135ma pin 2, r5281 measured 1.9k but changed anyway and...
Hi Duke all the liquid damage was around u7100 and u3090 but also looks like the ssd has some too, im afraid i dont have a scope , did try with the meter but couldnt detect anything , would be willing to order a scope if you think it would make my life easier :-)
Sorry about the voltages would have made more sense, yes should have said, i see it comes from PM SLP S5 L (i knew what i meant :-) ,guess id had a long day) but i cant see where PM SLP S5 L comes from, thats the only place on the schematic for it
Hi ive got an 820-4924 board which had liquid damage, no green light so so replaced u7100 and r7110 and now have charger light but no fan spin, check power rails

yes has image on screen, lcd 100% good for 2105, smc_lid is 3.3V lcd connector looks ok but would it be worth changing just incase ?. history of laptop is we changed the screen 2 - 3 months ago due to laptop being dropped but apart from that no water damage or anything like that, apparently just...

Duke thankyou for your patience you put me in the right direction with the broken trace on the i2c_bklt_sda line which if i had done as i replied back to you with what i done ie pin 4 of the lcd then i would have saved myself hours of frustration, like a prize pratt i soldered it to pin 3 of the...
yes i used another customers board to check this screen and also my test screen and both were working , unless ive managed to blow both these screens but this board has now gone so i cant recheck the screens i have, i have rechecked the board and now im getting 1.47v at EDP_BKLT_PWM pin 8 of lcd...
yes voltage still 12.2v on lcd connector , 0v on EDP_BKLT_PWM pin 8 of lcd connector and 0v everwhere else for that signal , is it pssible to run a wire from l8300 for the 5v or am i gonna blow the board
