Hi,

Got this mbp 15 water damaged. Changed ISL and some components. Now it's working but not charging the battery and doesnt run from battery.

I have already tried new one but same problem.

ISL on pins 17/18 27/28 is ok. PPBUS is 12.6 with battery disconnected and about 12,9-13 with battery conected ( 22% of charge).


SMC seems to be ok, no water damage in that area, what else can be checked please?

Post exact diode mode and voltage for SCL/SDA lines.
Check with o-scope, if possible.
Try another SMC...

I recommend to test with KNOWN GOOD WORKING battery first; even old, just to be sure.
Battery connector must be cleaned too.

SDA - 0.533
SDL - 0.536


About oscpope dont have it now. Already tried with good know battery. It recognizes battery, charge percent but doesnt charge and work from it. SMC must buy donor because i only have 3332. About battery connector it's cleaned.

Values look good.
Be sure to have good traces to pin2 10/11 of ISL6259.
Post its voltages, pins 1, 2, 3, 6, 9, 12, 13, 14, 15, 26.
Also check traces and components of pins 5/6/7/8.
