Hello,
I received this MacBook. It was liquid damaged. Around the SMC (smc should be fine, this one has the underfill around the SMC).
No corrosion! Liquid damage around the LPC+SPI connector. I removed the connector before ultrasonic cleaning. I cleaned the
board, but still does not chime...
Hello!
I received this board for repair. Unfortunately another repair shop tried their magic on it. They heated the PCH for no reason.
This is how the picture looks on the screen. Bad RAM or bad IGP in the CPU?
The screen is good. Tested with other logic board...
ASD test passed(100 test). No sensor issues. I cleaned the ME region anyway, but it didn't solve anything.
I checked the sleep signals and it was weird. I was hoping it's not the PCH. I changed SMC and the sleep problem was resolved.
I changed the LED driver(it came from digikey) from another...
Hello,
This was a liquid damaged unit. I changed LP8550 and LCD connector.
Now I have backlight. Only problem when I set the brightness it's not smooth, it's not continues.
It's "flashing" laggy when I set the brightness. I didn't really have this problem before.
Only blacklight problem I had...
Yes, it does. It chimes and boots into OS X. Just nothing on the screen.
I can set the volume up and down. I also can change the keyboard backlight.
Just no picture, I tried external it shows black screen and after a sec no signal, and then black screen and then no signal.
Update:
Checked U9100 GMUX.
I've PP3V3_S0_DPMUX_UC_R and PP3V3_S3_DPMUX_UC_R too.
So it has all the powers rails.
Y9100 is missing. Looks like it does not need clock signal.
Hi,
I got this macbook with cracked LCD. I changed the LCD, no backlight and no screen, and no picture on external display.
No liquid damage for sure. I checked:
L8930
L8960
L8360
L8310
nothing on them.
GPU is ice cold.
I can't take this to Apple. PO ripped off the screw sleeves of the...
No, the fan won't even spin if the LCD connected. Totally dead. Nothing on L9004 when I apply power.
Looks like it has a problem with the PP3V3_S5 rail. When I try to turn it on when LCD connected the PP3V3_S5 collapse.
I removed L9004 and attached my bench PSU on pin2.
It draws 0.21xxA when the macbook is turned off.
When it turns on it draws 0.23xxA and have picture.
WTF should I do with this macbook?
Hi,
I bought this shit from craigslist.
The lady said she spilled some water on the macbook.
She heard some sizzling and she couldn't turn it back on anymore.
The macbook is in a pristine condition.
I took it apart and I couldn't find where the water was spilled.
No corrosion on the board...
Yes, I'am. I also tried it with different modules. I checked the pins in the memory slots. Everything looks ok.
I checked the voltages at the memory slot and looks like I've everything there. Bad slot or CPU?
