After I put R5701 back keyboard works.
Thanks a lot. I learned many new things this time.
Computer is already sold, 250$ without charger and harddrive.
Thanks a lot. You are a true Mac Superhero in my eyes.
Of course it had EFI password.
Cleared PRAM and now it works.
Now it´s just the keyboard connector that i have to deal with
No efi pass.
With USB keyboard and internal disconnected it still auto writes in the password field. With the internal I can stop the auto writing but with USB keyboard it just continues to write.
There must be something wrong with the internal keyboard connector. I will look closer at it...
It is still strange.
All keys seem to work except Z. Tried two different keyboards with same results.
Sometimes it boots to folder with ? but if I channge the rams again it boots ok.

I bought the mbp for 50$ with no other information from The seller than that it wouldn't start.
R7402 doesn't look corroded. It's the pin on U7400 that it's attached to that was corroded.
hi
I think I have problems with understanding how to measure things.
I measured L7550 and L7510 in diode mode, red on ground black on coil, and got 0.013
If i measure ohm on my fluke between coil and ground i get 10.9 on L7550 and L7510
My other board, with no image; measures 10.7 on L7550 and...
