Device came in as not turning on but i plugged in the charger it turned on. Worked for a day and then will not turn on.
I take out the board. Corossion on and near the Wifi chip - but no shorts. Replaced the Caps.
PPBUS_AON is 8V. Removed the Fuse - get 12.3V at C5250.
PP3v8_AON is 3.8V.
Since...
PCIE_CLK100M_SSD_P/N is shorted when SSD inserted and without SSD the diode reading is .300
Q5810/30/60 is readings are normal. Still replacing them just in case.
Can you help me understand Q5230 and Q5240 because CHGR_PHASE2 and PPDCIN_AON_CHGR_R are not generated when battery is connected.
i dont why i feel the issue is in this section of the board.
With all connected except trackpad - i get these voltages now and device turns on as well.
Couldn't check the charging as TP/KB not working.
CHGR_PHASE1/2
PPDCIN_AON_CHGR_R
PPVBAT_AON_CHGR_R / PPBUS
CHGR_BGATE
But the point here is all voltages are present without battery connected.
Can it be a DFU Restore Case? I mean DFU revive didnt work.
Also since all voltages are present when put on charge and a few are missing as soon as the battery is connected the circuit which tells the logic board to...
With a charged battery i did a DFU revive. This time i get logo on screen and loading bar with Host mac still halfway at "installing Software" the target mac was on and not charging.
Didnt enter DFU with KB and had to jumper it.
With Device on andCharger Connected (20V and 0 Amp Draw)...
R8070 is a No Stuff point on the board. Ran a jumper. now i get voltages and the macbook turns on detecting the SSD. Is this the permanent solution?
Also fan spinning at max continuously but nothing heats up as such.
When LID is closed it will not go to sleep and will shut down after 1 minute...
