Hey guys, I am wondering if anyone has had any experience with the following issue.
Macbook Air wont automatically switch from internal speakers to headphones when I insert the headphones. The only way it will switch is if I insert the headphones, then close the lid so that the computer
goes to...
Macbook air no backlight with no real history. Board has been cleaned with liquid indicators tripped.
There is an image on screen, just no backlight
BKLT_PWM (With Screen) - 1.47V
BKLT_PWM (Without Screen)- 2.6V (without screen)
BKLT_EN - 2.7V
Changed driver with no change. Also replaced...
Unfortunately i think I spoke too soon...
I have 1.8V on PPVCC_SO_CPU but no post /no chime/no video. No light on USB Mouse either.
I dont have an O scope so all I can give are Voltages on U1900, sry.
Also all signals seem to be properly reaching their destination...
Thanks for the info on PPBUS_X239_REG not needed for turn on.
I just went back to the area and noticed that I have PPVRTC @ 3.3V on pin1 of c1910 but PPVRTC goes down to 2.7V by the time it gets to C8090/1/2. This is most likely my problem?
I replaced U1900, Y1905 and surrounding components.
Minor liquid damage around clock area, but board was still working. I replaced the really nasty looking stuff just to be safe. Now board doesn't work at all. :(:mad: Going down the power rail list I found that PPBUS_X239_REG is at .015V and is supposed to be a 12V rail.

Have a great one.

Board has no signs of liquid damage. Came in with dead battery and no power. When I plug in adapter I get .4## Volts on PPDCIN_G3H. Also QB400 gets very hot and after about 30 seconds the charger cuts off.
I only have the center portion of a donor for this board as I could not find the right...
Sorry for the delayed response have been closed for a while here from the holiday. You were right! Thank you very much! There was a pinhole in TP between pin 27 and pin 2 of C7120. Sorry for the wild goose chase man, I honestly couldn't see it and my joints on the isl looked strong, so I...
