820-01814 no USB activity

Hello,
I'm working on a 820-01814 that was water damaged. I got it with U3100/U3200 area fluxed and both ports not turning on USB-C-meter at all. The other two ports were stuck at 5V/400mA. U3200 was getting hot.
This board raise a few questions for me regarding CD5215s. My schematic states that all 4 are CD3215A. That is clearly wrong. It came to me with 2 CD3215C00Z 92C4L8W (not reworked) and 2 CD3215C00 87C4J6W (surrounded with flux) on it.
- Is that factory, or should it have 4 identical ICs on it?
- Are the 7 characters behind the C00 important at all?
- Should it work in this configuration?
I know that these ICs work in a master/Slave configuration.
- Must Master and Slave be identical (U3100/U3200 be both CD3215C00Z or is one with "Z" and one "normal" CD3215C00 ok too?)
- Does the "Z" even make any difference?

I started with replacing the hot IC (U3200) with an CD3215C00 86C287T from a donor (A1707). Now all 4 ports were completely dead. I replaced it again with another IC from that same donor (marking CD3215C00 8C280T - in case that IC was bad/died during reballing) - no change. After that I replaced the other reworked IC (U3100) with the first IC I took from my donor (the one I used for the first U3200 replacement) but still nothing. Now I'm a little confused.
Diode mode reading on PP20V_USBC (F3001) is 0.220V and on PPDCIN_G3H is 0.553V. I can't compare that but no direct short there. Now I want to make sure I'm on the right path. My next suggestion would be to use 4 identical ICs and buy 2 CD3215C00Z as I imagine that this board was produced with 4 identical ICs and the ones with the "Z" are still untouched.
But before I waste more time and money...
Thank you for any help.

C00 is what matters on the code.

You still have ports where power meter stays black?
Check diode mode to ground on their CC1/2 lines.
S-UEM2 tool helps a lot in case like this.

Thank you. All 4 ports were dead. The CC-lines were the issue. DZ3301 was damaged (mechanically broken). My guess is that 2 ports were dead because the one DC3215 was shorted. After replacing it, all 4 could communicate again, and therefore all 4 were dead because of the CC-line issue. Now all 4 ports work perfectly fine. Thank you very much.
Last thing I'd like to know is if these boards should have 4 identical ICs on them (as the older ones) or if it is normal that this one had 2 ICs with the exact same number (even after the C00) on it and 2 with another number (just in case you know that).
