820-00165 - wont turn on.

minor liquid found on U1930. I've replaced and it's still no go. red/green light on the charger but no fan spin.

here's are the measurements:

ppbus_g3h: 8.59v
pp3v42_g3h: 3.42v
rtc: 3.3v
PP5V_S5: 5v
pp3v3_s5: 3.3
pp3v3_s0: 0v -3.3v for a split second then goes 0v. not pulsing.
pp1v5_s0: 0v -1.5v for a split second then goes 0v. not pulsing.
pp5v_s3: 0v -5v for a split second then goes 0v. not pulsing.
pp3v3_sus: 3.3
PP3V3_S4: 0v - gets 3.3v
SMC_ADAPTER_EN: 3.4v
PM_SLP_SUS_L: 3.3v
PM_SLP_S5_L: 0v - 3.3v for a split second then goes 0v. not pulsing.
p3v3s3_en: 0v -gets 3.3v for a split second then goes 0v. not pulsing.
PM_SLP_S4_L: 0v - 3.3v for a split second then goes 0v. not pulsing.
ALL_SYS_PWRGD 0v
pp5v_s4: 0v -5v for a split second then goes 0v. not pulsing.
SMC_BC_ACOK: 3.3v
PP1V05_SUS: 1.05v

cpuvore is 14ohms to ground. A known-good board is around 18-20 ohms.

smc_bypass does quarter fan spin for a couple of times. cpuvcore jumps to 1.1v and pulsing


if I power on without U1930 then all voltages are present, cpuvcore present and stable with fan spin.

I've already tried other bios, it's the same.

"ALL_SYS_PWRGD 0v"
Doesn't even pulse at least???
Also check for pulse at CPU_VCCST_PWRGD.

"I've already tried other bios, it's the same."
Where did you get it?

Traces near U6100 ok?

yep, i've checked this area many times.



"ALL_SYS_PWRGD 0v"
"I've already tried other bios, it's the same."

1st I've tried using other chip from a donor board of same 00165 board.
2nd I've made of own using piernov's clean me region method, i had many successful doing it on other boards as well.


"ALL_SYS_PWRGD 0v"

oh yes pulse , 3.3v for a split second.


also check for a pulse at CPU_VCCST_PWRGD

CPU_VCCST_PWRGD - 1v pulse

all voltages present and stable if i remove U1930.

Corruption on main BIOS area, cannot be solved cleaning ME area!
That was the reason to recommend new FULL BIOS to try.

Check all voltages from pages 57/58.

yes, sorry. forgot to add i've tried different bios as well.

this is a hard one, think i'll leave it and put on a dead pile.
probably theres crap under pch/cpu.

2informaticos, do you want this board for free and maybe you can fix it. its a 8gb version.

UK, Birmingham. only cost around 6pounds within EU. i'll pay for postage. i want to know whats wrong with it.
i'll throw other boards in as well.

pm me or on discord. thanks.
