    this board was shorted at ppbus because of ug800. i've replaced ug800 and still no 20v. what's the function of UG800? is pp5v_s2sw_usbc23 important?

    820-02890-a 20v present but no ppbus

    this board is look similiar to the a2485 logic board. It had a spill in the audio amp area (ur600, ur630 and ur660). the rest of it looks unbothered. f5200 and f5201 are reading 3v. pp3v8_aon is 0v. this is very unusual since 20v is showing the usbc port meter

    820-02100 stuck at 5v

    3v8_aon_spmu was shorted to ground after a liquid spill and the rail was restored after removing a burned capacitor. The board booted up fine and everything worked until the next day when the display had no backlight. I probed around UP800 and must've shorted something else because now ppdcin...

    820-01598 thermal sensor issue

    the board does just like the older mac board used to do. The fan slowly ramps to full speed and it's laggy. Is there an smc bypass procedure for the newer models?

    820-01958 not working with charger.

    this board has me vexed. i've reprogrammed u3060 and changed both u3200 and u3100. i've also used several usb-c jacks. it basically gets to 5v 0.215a and then it loops. I can get it boot all the way with a charged battery. can't get it into dfu at all

    asus g531gw

    i don't work on many non apple board so i'm a bit confused by this asus board. There was very low resistance on three power rails. +1.8VSUS and +1.05VSUS and +3VA_DSW. I removed the pch and the shorts were gone. i'm assuming they were shorts because they measured 0 ohms to ground. I replaced...

    how to troubleshoot memory chips

    i have a playstation 5 with faulty gddr6 memory.. the resistance on the power rail is very low but when i inject 1.5 volts it doesn't draw more amperage than a good working board. is there a way to single out the faulty chip without removing all of them? it has 8 of them. Could I damage it if i...

    820-01598 liquid spill

    this board had a short on ppbus and c6405 was removed to fix that. now i get 20v 0.000a 3v3_g3h is 3v. pp1v8_slps2r is 0v and doens't have a short. is this a issue with the coils surrounding u7800? If so i'll need to remove that cover that surrounds u3900/u7800

    820-00134 fan not spinning

    a customer tried to replace the thermal paste and mangled the pins on the cpu socket. I know that on some of the 2015 apple laptops, the fan doesn't stay spinning all the time. Do the fans on the 2015 imac spin continually or no?
