Cant find any liquid damage.
One port charge only on one side, nothing on another side.
'Mac USBC & EDP meter" shows correct diode mode readings of JB500.
Replaced CD3510 just in cases and no progress.
Diode mode values RB630, QB630 are correct.
When plugged on the faulty side got 0V on FB200...
No corrosion on board.
At the start there was 5V and 0.1A from charger.
One of the CD3215 had burn mark and then I found PPV3_UPC_XA_LDO was shorted to ground.
I replaced that IC, short gone and then I found other CD3215 got short as well on PPV3_UPC_xx_LDO.
At this stage PPBUS at F700 was 0.1V...
Cant find any liquid on board.
PPBUS_AON (pin 2/F5200) got 0V (.473 in diode mode)

FF200/1 both got 5V on both sides.
PP3V3_UPC0/1_LDO correct diode mode and voltage when charger connected
PP1V5_UPC0/1_LDO_CORE correct diode mode and voltage when charger...
There was 5V and 0.01A
Board had tiny liquid damage on U8220 and C8220.
Both components replaced and board only had 20V and 0.15A.
With battery connected it was at only 5V.
Replaced U7000 now got 20V with battery at around 1.2A
Board only got 20V 0.18A.
N0 chime, no caps lock light, USB...
Got 16GB board and got donor board with 32GB RAM.
Is in that model possible to upgrade RAM
I know donor board got hynix modules and I will need change resistors on 'CPU DRAM CFG'.
Other than that is anything else what must be done?
Cant find any liquid damage.
Got image, but no backlight.
Tested clients screen on know good A1990 and it is working fine.
Tested J8500 with EDP METER and all diode mode values are correct.
PPVOUT_S0_LCDBKLT 55V
Tested with known good LCD flex cable and no luck.
When doing "revive device" in...
MacBook had liquid damage.
Audio board was damaged as well.
I manage to turn it on but got some lid/sleep issue.
When plug charger it turns on.
When I almost close the lid I see display turns off (so lid sensors works?) but when I open the lid it think lid is still closed (no caps lock LED...
Display got no backlight.
No Caps Lock LED.
USB mouse light OK.
PRAM reset via USB keyboard is not working.
CPU gets hot.
Tried 820-00163 clean ME fixed SSN.bin but no luck.
Any idea?
Cant find any liquid.
When charger connected to one port got 5V and 0.25A.
On another port got 5V 0.24A and the USB C multimeter turns of and then turns on in cycles every 5 seconds.
Checked diode mode readings with USBC meter and all looks fine.
Replaced U3100 which is linked with not stable...
Board got liquid damage around JT400, Q5240, CC337.
Found short on PP5V_S2, replaced UP700 and short gone.
Got 5V and 0.04A from charger and I can hear clicking sound on the board - transistor?
Cant locate precise the location of that sound.
Any idea?
Client had repaired liquid damage in some other shop.
They replaced battery and on the board I can see liquid damage around:
UB600, J5260, QV300, UB300
When on battery there are random restarts with kernel panic.
"*** Panic Report ***
panic(cpu 0 caller 0xffffff801f342836): nvme...
When battery is disconnected got 5V and 0.25A on charger on both ports.
With battery connected it turns on but on login screen trackpad/keyboard is not working.
Fan on high RPM and 5V and 0.0A on charger on one port.
Second USB C port got not reaction on USB C volt meter - it is linked with...
There was small liquid damage on UR660.
Replaced that and still no sound.
IC is getting hot under thermal camera.
Don't have access to know working board.
Values around UR660:
PPBUS_AON_SPKRAMP_ABC_ISNS 11.96V
PP3V8_AON 3.79V
PP1V8_AWAKE 1.79V
PP1V2_AWAKE 1.22V
CR668/1 3.48V
RR662/1 0V...
Cant find any corossion.
Board won't boot when PCIE SSD is connected (SSD controlled on SSD is hot).
After press power button fans are spinning (trackpad clicks, caps lock LED not working) and screen is blank.
As soon SSD is removed all works fine if boot from USB port.
Tested with known good...
Voltage on J8600/ 1 and 56 is correct.
Found low diode more reading on SSD_BOOT_L = 0.014V (should be around 0.780V).
Removed all caps on that line C8675-77 and still low value.
Then removed R1442 and on pad 2 still low value so fault in PCH?
Tested on genuine 96W charger via USB C
Very small liquid damage on UR660 and UF800
PPBUS_AON - 12.25V
PP3V8_AON - 0.68V (0.144V in diode mode)
PP3V8_AON goes to UR660 which was affected by liquid so I removed UR660 but still got only 0.68V
All LDOs on all CD3217 are correct in diode mode...
