    U7000 is fluctuating

    I would like to know that too, because I can get amtech flux (without letting you ship it all the way from America ;)) but the kester is probably harder.

    U7000 is fluctuating

    I have vcore. I going to seach thoroughly for any components missing.

    U7000 is fluctuating

    Both have the expected voltages on all pins, 3.42v and 3.49v to be exact. It does not chime, unfortunately. I found a component that wasn't there, maybe I knocked it off myself. The U2652, which is a critical component. So I thought if I fixed this the board would work but unfortunately not...

    U7000 is fluctuating

    Yes I have, still no signal. I haven't mentioned that the fan is spinning on high, even with all the components plugged in. So that means something else essential is missing. Can you tell me which components are causing a high fan spin when missing?

    U7000 is fluctuating

    R7012 is good. When I run the system of the battery everything is fine, I have all power rails and the fan spins but it does not chime and I have no enable signal on LCD_BKLT_EN and LCD_IG_PWR_EN. Could this be a bad PCH? There is no sign of liquid damage in this area.

    U7000 is fluctuating

    Oh sorry I forgot to mention that. It's a 13" macbook pro 820-3115-B. I replaced the U9410, U3890, SMC, battery current sensing resistors and some other resistors and caps. The original problem was liquid damage. There was a ticking sound coming from the SMC, replaced it and now it is gone but...

    U7000 is fluctuating

    Hello, I have this board that I've been working on for a while now. I've repaired a lot of issues but I can't figure out this last one. The voltage from the U7000 to the gate of the mosfets that are creating the 12.8v rail are fluctuating, the top one fluctuates around 10.51v and the bottom one...

    Recomended tools by Louis,

    I have a small question so I'll post it here instead of opening a new topic. What is the green stuff that you are using, louis?

    BIOS chip removed by other party, need to install a new one

    Oke I need to do more research about how this works exactly. Dealing with commands is something I'm trying to avoid. Is there a basic guide on this? To give me a general idea of the workings. Thanks for the file! That's oke, I know there are a lot of people who deal in stolen laptops and try...

    BIOS chip removed by other party, need to install a new one

    So what is the difference between soldering off the chip, putting it in a adapter to program it and using the onboard connector and program it from there? Let me be very clear about this because I don't want anyone to get the wrong idea about me. I work on broken laptops as a hobby to make...

    BIOS chip removed by other party, need to install a new one

    I've found this article in which is explained how it works: https://ghostlyhaks.com/blog/apple-efi/25-clean-me-region I going to order one of those clips.

    BIOS chip removed by other party, need to install a new one

    I'm sorry maybe I wasn't clear. I need the programmer for a 2012 macbook Air. The board of the 2010 macbook I'm just going to replace from a donor board. From what I've read the 2012 macbooks needs specific cleaning or else it will fail, or is that not true? Is the EZP2010 or TL866 the right...

    BIOS chip removed by other party, need to install a new one

    I ran ASD but not errors on the sensor sense resistors. It gave me two errors, the first one was on Thunderbolt, which said "Zero lanes" and the second one was "No ME Region". For the last one I probably need to reprogram the bios. But I don't have any equipment for that. Do I need a raspberry...

    BIOS chip removed by other party, need to install a new one

    I was wondering which models had an ME region, thanks. I'll search for a donor board then. I still would like to know how the ME region is cleaned. I have at least one macbook air 2012 board that is running slow, I think there has been some tempering with the bios before me.

    BIOS chip removed by other party, need to install a new one

    Hello, Just made an account so this is my first post. I've got a macbook pro 820-2530 with various components missing and a ticking sound (short going on and off). I put all the components back and fixed the ticking. One of the components missing was the BIOS chip and so I need to put new one...
