looking with thermal camera I see heartbeat on TPS51980B (U7650). is the chip faulty or something making the hearbeat happening ?
I've checked all components around and couldn't find anyhting wrong. I'll keep searching.
Hi,
Macbook get 5V and stay at 0.16 - 0.40 amp. I found a short on CF131 PIN1 near UF500. It's PP0V9_ATCRTMR1_VCCA. It's connected to CF143, CF130 and RF101 and RF100.
I want to make sure my diag is correct. I have .019 on diode mode, so it really looks like a short. Compare to simialr cap...
Correct, I use 01700 and board is not same on SSD area. I see those SSD power line on schematic but when I look at boardview, it's not same.
PP0V9_NAND0
PP1V2_NAND0
PP2V5_NAND0
PP0V9_NAND1
PP1V2_NAND1
PP2V5_NAND1
I don't know if the pics can help. The flapping between 3,3 to 1,55 mean something?
Now that I did try "revive" it take max 0,1 amp, it's no longer going up to 0.4amp
I am not too sure which SSD voltage I need to check
HS_P3V3_G3W_SSD0_OUT = 0.06V
HS_PBUS_MAIN_SSD0 = 0.22 V
P1V8_LX0_SSD0 = 0V
HS_P3V3_G3W_SSD1_OUT = 0.06V
HS_PBUS_MAIN_SSD1 = 0.22 V
P1V8_LX0_SSD0 = 0V
ok, I got the right way to access DFU with the switch. It's working on both motherboard (Bad and good).
1. Connect only power USB-C on DFU Mother board
2. Open AC2
3. Press the switch and hold it
4. connect thunderbolt USB-C to USB-C to AC2 Intel Macbook
5. DFU should appear
Now I'll try a...
Hello
I know this model is fragile and most of the time SSD are dead. I want to make sure I correct information to the customer.

Hi again, bad luck, Mac is no longer booting. It was booting, I would turn it off. I did that process twice and I waited for customer and now it's no longer booting. USB-C is on JE701, it stay at 5V and 0.17 amp. UF350 that manage JE701 looks ok, so it's no same issue. I've cleaned again the...
Hello
Macbook stop working all of suden. No light on Magsafe, no 20V so I took board out. No visible damage. I am using schematic 820-02100, I don't know if there is a better one available for 820-02652, nothing on badcaps.
3v8_AON is ok, I have 3.8V
PPBUS_AON between 9.5 and 11.5 V
USB-C only...
