There was liquid damage around u7200 and U1930, and u1845

Hi
Macbook Pro boots OK able to log in etc.
keyboard and trackpad appear to be functioning OK.
Apple diagnostics says may be issue with SMC (vague I know)
All temps shown via MacFanControl are OK.
So, how would I go about narrowing down the issue to find what sensor or fault is with this mac?

Hello
Fun little one I belive will be an easy fix!
Here's what it does
- Power button doesn't turn machine on, but will allow us to turn off. (therefore not keyboard)
- Computer will run on battery power alone, but not turn on when only battery is connected
- Computer will auto power on...
Hello
Board is obviously corroded in about 5 places.
Power supplies 20v, 0.04 amps on all 4 ports after a little clean with Qtip.
I have a schematic diagram but not the board view file. Will search for this and try to update rails.

HI All,
Macbook air
Sometimes boots normally and functions 100%.
Other times, fan will spin, with no video or chime.
Board looks good with no obvious signs of corrosion.
Not a backlight issue. Will sometimes chime and boot normally. When it does not chime there is no video / backlight...
Macbook is OK booting and will stay on for hours.
Shuts down (seems to completely just power off) when doing something intensive like HD youtube.
Have not managed to "catch" it yet.
I have tried with a different battery which made no difference.

LCDBKLT_EN_L - 12.72v
PPBUS_SW_LCDBKLT_PWR - 12.87v

Is my Q7706 bad or should LCDBKLT_EN_L be a low / 0 voltage?
Cheers,

Computer appears to start, then trips out.
Bench PSU shows draw from .25ma to approx 1amp after 1 second. which then resets and starts again.
Client says it sometimes turns on normally.
Some kind of over voltage protection or a shorted component tripping a circuit?
Not sure where to start...

Hi All,
Does anybody have schematic for the above computer?
Also can anybody recommend an alternative wire for running leads ? I can't find anything locally (Australia) and many Amazon sellers don't ship to Australia.
