Hi,
I have this board that gives me a question mark folder.
Booting an OSX installer from USB shows no internal storage in Disk Utility. Booting an OSX installed on a USB drive gives me a critical firmware update issue.
Also, the touchbar doesn't work, which I believe is normal as the T1 chip takes its firmware from the SSD (read this in duke's prior post about touchbars).
The board has no liquid damage.
Looks like all SSD power rails are present.
Measuring the relevant test points in the grid next to U9100 gives me:
PP1V8_SSD_COLD: present
STORAGE_LB_EN: 3.3V
SSD_RESET_LB_L: 3.3V
PP0V9_SSD_REG: present
SSD_PWR_EN_LB_L: 0V
LPSR_EN_LB_L: 3.3V
SSD_BOOT_LB_L: 1.7V
PP3V3_2V7_NAND_VCC: 2.7V
SSD_PCIE_CLKREQ_LB_L: 3.3V
I don't have a reference board to compare this to, but I'm curious about LPSR_EN_LB_L, which maybe should be low ? Also SSD_BOOT_LB_L has 1.7V, which could be wrong maybe ? And shouldn't SSD_PCIE_CLKREQ_LB_L be low, so that the PCIE bus gets clocked ?
Lifeboat connector is in place, with screws, and totally clean, of course.
