    A2485 Not charging. Fan spin. minor liquid damage on charge FETs

    C5220 2.7 ohm across. I'm not sure what /60 refers to but I'm happy to provide more information if you could clarify

    Hear me out for a sec...

    I'm definitively not the guy for writing the code for a project. I have some basic Arduino projects under my belt, however this is going to require something far more advanced to create. It just happens that the engineer's brother is a really talented programmer, and we all thought it would be...

    A2485 Not charging. Fan spin. minor liquid damage on charge FETs

    I have a A2485 that got a tiny streak of liquid damage on the on the FETs for charging the battery. Q5232 and Q5233. (Picture provided) Q5233 - CHGR_GATE_Q2 appeared to be shorted to GND. 0.00 in Diode mode. I cleaned pin 1-4 with some flux and solder and that appeared to relieve the short. D...

    Hear me out for a sec...

    I had the exact same conversation with my engineer friend some time ago. It would be amazing if somehow a mobo could be put in a jig and run/probe with boardview data. I offered my 3D printer for the project, but I doubt we will ever get anything done past the dreaming stage 😅

    820-01700. No Image. L8504 Blown.

    I have a water damaged 820-01700 that I managed to restore back to 20V with boot chime however there is no image and the L8504 inductor close by the screen is blown. I tried replacing it but without any luck. LCD cable also replaced. Boot sound, charger sound, key press to voice works so I'm...

    820-00165 3V instead of 3.3V on PPVRTC_G3H. DEAD CPU?

    Replacing the resistors restored voltages and I now have a booting device! I had already replaced the U7501 and measured DIODE mode up against OBDATA and everything checked out. I would never have been able to fix this board without your guidance. Thank you! 2informaticos!

    820-00165 3V instead of 3.3V on PPVRTC_G3H. DEAD CPU?

    Oh I see. I struggle to see when a signal is inbound or outbound on the schematics :S 3V3_S5 2.908V PP3V3_SUS 2.90V Seems like all voltages are slightly off.

    820-00165 3V instead of 3.3V on PPVRTC_G3H. DEAD CPU?

    Hi. I have a board with PM_SLP4 missing. PPVRTC_G3H is at 3V and not 3.3V Is this indicative of a dead CPU/PCH? Signal is coming from U0500. I'm not aware of any steps that comes before that. 18.5V 0.021A from PSU PPBUS_G3H 8.59V

    A2337 820-02016 5V 450mAh Liquid Damage

    Alright, hmmm. Should I maybe investigate components that use PPBUS_AON or the ones that are needed to create PPBU_AON? Chicken or egg situation. Tricky stuff. PPVDD_SOC_S1 has lower resistance to GND. (marked with red square at the top of this thread) Is this not a possible reason?

    A1990 820-01827 Liquid damage on U9580 SSD Buck. Likely Braindead?

    Turning it on and off fixed the problem. This one is fixed!

    A1990 820-01827 Liquid damage on U9580 SSD Buck. Likely Braindead?

    It worked! DFU recovery fixed the machine. The strange thing is that I already tried DFU after getting 20V on the charger. I tried a different USB-C cable (original mac charger USB-C) and now it worked. I used both schematics. 01041 and 01814. I honestly could not tell the difference. Thank...

    A2337 820-02016 5V 450mAh Liquid Damage

    Hi. Yes the fuse is fine. 0.01ohm resistance. I replaced it and even bridged it with copper wire just to try. The result is the same. Voltage drops to 1V after resoldering fuse.

    A1990 820-01827 Liquid damage on U9580 SSD Buck. Likely Braindead?

    Hi. I believe this one might be braindead, but I would like a professional opinion before putting it to rest. A1990 820-01827 Liquid damage around CD32 and U9580. Got 5V on charger. I reflowed CD3215 and U9580 and 20V was restored. Board draws .450a and T2 Chip gets slightly hot under...

    A2337 820-02016 5V 450mAh Liquid Damage

    Does 12.3V from ISL mean that the CD32 charging circuit is operational? Are the U8100 and U7700 the PMU BUCKS? PP3V8_AON 0.338 PPBUS_5VS2 0.505 PP5V_S2 0.256 PP3V3_S2 0.426 PP3V3_AON 0.500 PP1V8_AON...

    A2337 820-02016 5V 450mAh Liquid Damage

    What classifies as a secondary power rail? All rails that are derived from PPBUS_AON or a PPBUS_G3H equivalent?

    A2337 820-02016 5V 450mAh Liquid Damage

    12.295V on C5254 when fuse F5200 is removed. What does MLB stand for? edit: (NVM, Main Logic Board)
