Hello, got this machine it had water liquid spil on the keyboard. The board looks superclean, only one liquid indicator is a little red on the edge of the board, looks like not much hit the board. Even around the liquid indicator that was red all looks clean. I checked voltage, it actually turns...
Hello, i have a touchbar 13 inch that had liquid damage in following area: U3200, QB701 and C6554 & C6553 (these last 2 not shorted). The machine was previously running from battery (when customer arrived), but display sometimes flickering, it had some waterspil. Since I assumed all was OK we...
Hi, got an 820-00165 with some small corrosion near SMC. I replaced Q5158, R5625, C5625, C5595 and there was a burned trace under pin 1 of R5100 which i wired to pin 2 of R5193. After this the fan spins up, stops, then turns on again and keeps running. The machine doesnt boot though, display...
Tried the reset it does seem to reboot as USB drive switch off and then turn on again. As for display circuit no voltages, only get 8.59 on fuse but voltage for J8300, 3, 4, 14, 15, 16, 18/19 all 0. Cannot find any shorts in display circuit, seems its not turning on? Should have at least 8.59 on...
Here some other values:
SMC_ADAPTER_EN = 3.44v
SMC_BATLOW_L = 3.27
Also tried it with battery connected and original 60 watt charger. Do have green and orange light.
If i remove R7913 i do get 5V yes. I get no response on PM_SLP_S4_L. Means CPU is dead? Maybe because i removed the U5510 some leg under the cpu are screwed.
Working on another 00165, this one has green and orange light. Spinning fan but not booting. Display doesnt light up, there is 8.57v on the fuse but not boosting, but display not turning on at all so it seems. Tried PRAM reset nothing happens. Tried to boot with external drive on external...
I have a 2015 Mac air that came in dead, had a tiny liquid spil on C5126. After replacing boots up. Customer came back 2 days later telling me it froze. Now ive been playing youtube for about 5 hours, and the display went black. Display has 24v so backlight is powered. Fan still spinning. If i...
My flir cam saved the day on the short, U5501 was shorting 3v3 its back to normal after replacement. However, board not starts yet, now i am missing PP5V_S3. I do have PP3V3_S5 & S4 and 12.59v going into U7200. Since there is 3.3v coming out of U7200 can i assume the IC is good, or can only half...
Hi guys, got this one in, working. Customer wanted to upgrade, checked the board and area around Q5060 was corroded. Told him it needs fixing but he said he needed it at night, so came back the next day, mac died. Luckily not in my hands :). Anyway, I replaced Q5060 and Q5059 and resistors...
Hello, I have this 820-4924 that does not see the AC charger. It can run from battery but when attaching the charge cable no light. When removing the battery I get orange light and working fine. So it only doesnt work when both AC and battery are connected. No obvious liquid damage on the board...
The ASD file i have is only 256mb and shows only EFI no OS, might have to look for another one seems not to be complete. Or this only has the EFI test?
Hi guys, happy new year! I have an 820-3435 that is actually working fine, orange light 8.59 volt on ppbus. The fan is spinning very high all the time. When doing the hardware test it gives an SMC error. Any ideas on this? Board seems a bit corroded overall, not really in any specific area just...
I mean the display turns on, it has a black backside with white logo (although obviously no logo shows, but I can see it light up as this is my testing display it has a little crack in it. Also I measure 25v on backlight pin.
So it doesnt boot from both USB ports, do have a led on the drive. The display turns on, after a minute fan spins high and just keeps running like that. Could it be some resistor or line around U6100 not good, or then the display would not be able to turn on?
