    Power On problem 820-2879

    Back to this board. Yes, sense resistors and traces are all ok. So just to make it clear. PPBUS_G3H goes up to 12.56 it's there for 2 sec and collapse. I believe the problem is that the PP3V3_S5 rail is all over the place. There is no short on the 3.3V rail. However if I heat the board just a...

    820-3115 PP3V42_G3H short or no?

    Hi, I've a liquid damaged 820-3115. The liquid damage was around SMC and PP3V42_G3H. I had to change the SMC, because there was no green light. After I replaced the SMC this macbook was working fine. However after few hours it turned off and the green light went off. There was a short on...

    Power On problem 820-2879

    When it's fluctuating its between 12.55V - 12V on the scope. The thing is that it's not always fluctuating. Sometimes it just goes down to 0V.

    Well, I received the parts board for this board. I changed the SMC with the correct one, but still no power. I lifted all CPUVCORE coils at the CPU side and checked them if I have anything on them without connecting it to the CPU. With multimeter is show 3V which is extremely high. I checked...

    820-3476 Liquid damage does not power on

    Yes, The CPU VCORE comes high for a sec. Well, hard to tell what the voltage is on Y1905. I got a very weird wave on the scope. Multimeter jumps up around 1V for a sec. Hard to tell. I changed Y1905 and U1900 same thing. I've one more exact same board almost with the same problem, but that one...

    820-3662 liquid damaged no power

    Hi All, So I have this nice Retina here with liquid damage. I cleaned it. Battery is dead. It was powering on, but no CPU VCORE. I checked the power to U7200 and I saw R7202 was corroded. I changed it and it turned on for a sec or two and turned off. PP3V42_G3H was 70-80 Ohm short to ground...

    Apple parts seller

    He has the same crap as the others. I recently ordered from him 10 keyboards with backlight. The keyboards are OK, but the backlights are garbage. Same with the retina batteries. The first two were good. The last 3 were crap. One charges up, but as soon as it goes above 9% the macbooks shuts...
