    820-4924 A1502 2015 PP5V_S3 PM_SLP_S4 missing

    I edited the message but somehow it didn't registered, I tried the bypass and it does exactly the same, I mean it will spin the fan full a brief instant and then shuts off. When I short SMC_ONOFF_L, PM_PWRBTN shifts from 3.3 to 0.3 and it comes back to 3.3V when I release the short on...

    820-4924 A1502 2015 PP5V_S3 PM_SLP_S4 missing

    Got this board and hesitated to repair it as they are becoming cheap. Opened the case and found a big burned spot on magsafe board and DCin circuit, no liquid at all. I restored all dc-in circuit: F7005, D7010, R7121/R7120 (sensing), R7105. U7190 was replaced also because I got 4.6V on L7195...

    A2179 820-1958 No audio

    The short is 2.3 ohms ( touching my probes together gives 0.6ohms) I tried PP1V8_G3S directly to SPKRAMP_RESET_L but it didn’t work.

    A2179 820-1958 No audio

    I had this board in for repair, a liquid damage one. Both speaker amp controllers on audio board and logicboard (U6400) were shorted. I replaced them and all shorts went away except for SPKRAMP_RESET_L it is shorted right from T2 U3900. Audio volume button is not greyd out, I can put it up or...

    820-00281 A1707 missing PP3V3_SUS

    Thanks 2informaticos, it ended up the U8200 from the donnour was also faulty! I found another one from A1706 and everything is fine now! After a long and risky pch job replacement I was a little bit discouraged with the second fault...

    820-00281 A1707 missing PP3V3_SUS

    I got this board repair witch original issue was full shorted PP1V_PCH_REG_R. Traced that up to the PCH. Customer stated liquid damage but I don't see liquid anywhere. I replaced the PCH and short gone, cleaned also ME. When I power up the board I get 20V 90mA. I am missing PP3V3_SUS. At U8200...

    820-01958 A2179 no power

    Yes i tried removing them but nothing change. With original shorted chips 8GB Micron, straps conf are1 1 so R1490 and R1491 were no stuff on the board. With Hynix chip 8GB, strap conf for CFG1 CFG0 according to the chart in page 3 of schematic are 0 0, witch means to me signal low asserted so I...

    820-01958 A2179 no power

    On the working donnour board, even without the 2 ddr chips I notice voltage on L7819-20-21-22. PP3V3_S5 of course present. On the faulty board, I have the idea to replace U7800 because it outputs PP3V3_S5 but I don’t have a strong reason to assume it is faulty. As it maybe just need to satisfy...

    820-01958 A2179 no power

    I just checked and compared. Diode mode on L7819 and L7820 is 0.474 and 0.457 on L7821 and L7822. Values compare perfectly with good board :unsure:

    820-02016 bad keys on keyboard

    I saw this post snd wanted to share an experience with these models: Usually non compatible trackpad or non compatible daughter board or both will 100% cause A and D keys missing. Specially between Air A2179 intel and Air A2337 M1. I think it’s valid also for keyboard but I don’t remember...

    820-01958 A2179 no power

    This board came with no liquid damage. It was stuck at 5V. Noticed a short on the PP1V1_S3 it was coming right from U2300 ddr chip. When I removed the shorted chip the short was gone, I had to replace both of them as it was Micron 8GB ddr and I had only Hynix 8GB ddr known working donnour. I...

    a2289 820-01987 liquid damage

    I replaced the only two stuffed I/V sensors, replaced also U9080 and I9000 but no change. I tested also with a known working topcase and battery and no change. Ultrasoniced as last resort to see if any improvment but still nothing. I think it's time to stop spending time on this one, we can't...

    a2289 820-01987 liquid damage

    Fan spins normally and cpu is normal warm. Launching the diagnostic mode seems to take forever, after 1 hour it still increasing the time remaining, 2h, 6h, 9h, 16h, 24h, now it hangs on 24h remaining I don't see any improvment... I will inspect again corrosion in general and near sensors...

    a2289 820-01987 liquid damage

    I completed a dfu restore, now it boots to internet recovery but it is still super slow, the trackpad is not fluent and image is refreshing very slow from apple logo to internet recovery to wifi network selection...It takes more than 30 minutes just to accept wifi password, same thing with...

    a2289 820-01987 liquid damage

    This liquid damage board was not powering on. PPBUS_G3H rail was fluctuating between 12,56V and 12,23V and PP5V_G3S was following the same patern between 5V and 4,89V. I cleaned/reflowed U9080 and U9000 area and compared some diode value with samet esting board. After that 12,56V became stable...

    820-02016 A2337 liquid damage weired behaviour

    Lid signals (AMR_LEFT_OR_ND_1V8 and AMR_RIGHT_OR_ND_1V8) are ok with 1.54V, it seems a bit off but normal after comparing with other board, machine also comes back normal when lid is opened/closed. I solved it, finally, it was a mistake on my end...U5700 with pins 27 and 28 bridged underneath...

    820-02016 A2337 liquid damage weired behaviour

    Hello 2informaticos, This board was liquid damaged, with shorted P5V_PS2 line at U5700, shorted UP710, burned LP670 due to the screen and burned trace related to backlight ic UP800. Even the screen was not powering on because internal lcd IC chip was shorting PP5V_SW_LCD. I was able to fix all...

    820-01521 A1932 no power 20V @ 75-85mA

    I have already tested it without anything plugged in, I have 20V 0.650A on usb-c meter and CPU core voltage always comes on 0.965V, but it is brain dead. I don't know if I try another T2 ROM image, but I think the one I have must be good if I can perform the complete dfu restore process. I...

    820-01521 A1932 no power 20V @ 75-85mA

    There was no important data and I did a restore via dfu. All process went ok but still laptop is not booting... The strange thing is when I turn it off with power button, it turns off but will restarts on its own... I have no more idea

    820-01521 A1932 no power 20V @ 75-85mA

    Ok some progress to report: after a dfu I tried the revive option and now I have all voltages except CPUGT_PHASE1/2 no image no backlight no usb light, external monirtor or capsLock. UBC meter shows 20V 0,560A without battery wich seems to me ok. Fan spins when cpu is hot, when I power off it...
