What this means exactly?
Do you talk about voltage, or diode mode?

As per its name, P3V3_SSD_EN_L MUST be 0V in working condition.

So other SSD works good, original is not detected?
Did you try one more?

this line in diode mode is grounded,is it correct? no voltage
orginal ssd is 100% working because in my macbook air is working. when i put it to this mac he start spinning but no chime,or sometimes mac chime but dont see this ssd and show that there is now ssd on screen

Impossible to understand.
If you talk about grounded, that can ONLY be seen checking in diode mode, or ohm scale; do NOT do that with power applied.
Getting 0V doesn't mean is grounded; don't you get 0V on other non-grounded points?
Or any 0V points means to be connected to ground???

However, already explained that 0V is correct voltage for P3V3_SSD_EN_L; the end "L" says this!
How else can Q8070 work?
Do you get PP3V3_S0SW_SSD voltage?

Then post all Q8070 voltages.
Be sure no short to ground on its output.
Remember to always check with SSD connected.

Check R8070; change it, if broken.

BTW, did you see any reason to check voltage for each pins, when they are tied together?
Not good enough to check only one?
