    Have no fake chargers around here. In order to power with a DC Power Supply do I have to chop up a irking MagSafe 2 Charger?

    820-3787-A completely dead no green light PP3V42_G3H 0V

    Sorry for the lack of information, I’ve just never had this exact issue and was quite frankly a bit confused about everything being 0V.... Measured all pins on U7100 and all are 0v...

    820-3462-A A1425 won't recognise SSD

    By Caddy I meant the Plastic Caddy with its flex. Used one streikt from a working machine so that can’t be at fault. I replaced R4506,4507,4508 and 4510 with ones from a donor as well as C4522 and C4525. I haven‘t replaced C4518 and C4517 yet as they are so close to the PCH. In regards to the...

    820-3462-A A1425 won't recognise SSD

    Hi, have this really tough A1425 2012 retina board. It won't recognise a SSD even with a know good drive and known good caddy. All power lines at J4500 are present as expected. How do I properly check the data lines?

    A1534 Liquid Damage No Keyboard or Trackpad. Board damage?

    Hi got this A1534 12" 2015 Retina MacBook in for repair after a small spill over the Keyboard. My first ever 12" Retina I've worked on. The Keyboard is completely unresponsive as well as the Trackpad. I was first tempted to replace the top case as these are absolutely notorious for their...

    Where to get a replacement SMC?!

    Need an SMC for an 820-3462A A1425 2012 13" Retina. Cant find a thing though.. Well there is one sketchy vendor from aliexpress selling a scapulas board with SMC for 45USD but he won't ship to Germany. And the people on Ebay selling SMCs just sell useless blank chips... Any idea where I can get...

    He sadly didn't have any ones for this model MacBook Pro. Found one on AliExpress for 45$ with an SMC though they only ship to the US for some reason

    820-3462-A green light no power s5 rails not present

    Okay, will do. Shipping to Germany will be super expensive though... I?ll report back as soon as I have a replacement SMC on the board

    820-3462-A green light no power s5 rails not present

    Hmm. I sadly have no donors on hand. Any idea where I can get decent replacements that are from actual boards and not just blank chips? Also, could this have caused the initial problems?

    820-3462-A green light no power s5 rails not present

    Saw nothing unusual, injected 4V and got a draw of nearly 900mA. The SMC does get very hot, normal?

    820-3462-A green light no power s5 rails not present

    Update: Out of absolutely nowhere PPBUS_G3H collapsed to 1.8V. Left the board sitting with power for like 1 minute and now this.... R6920 shows a burn mark on it though im not sure if that's new... No more light on the charger. I didn't do anything to the board what so ever

    820-3462-A green light no power s5 rails not present

    Hi, got this "Liquid Damaged" A1425 in for repair. Has absolutely no corrosion though! Doubt it actually got wet at all. Regardless, it has no power, green light and then orange comes on. PPBUS_G3H and PP3V42_G3H are present. S5 rails like PP5V_S5 and PP3V3_S5 are not! Anyone know what could be...
