ASD shows the following problems:
Temperture (Ts0P) - unable to read sensor
SMC: SMC PID Sensor check - The SMC's PID Sensor check has been tripped
Thanks for the help guys

Louis, thanks for your reply.
Replaced the trackpad with the trackpad cable, the same problems above now apear randomly - after a few minutes, they come and go.
ASD shows only the "SMC: SMC PID Sensor check - The SMC's PID Sensor check has been tripped" error. Hope it's not the SMC chip.
In PBUS Voltage Sense Enable & Filter circuit ---- C5385 has 1.6V when in battery use, with charger - 2.0V.
PPBUS_G3H is 9V in battery use, with charger - 11.5V

Maybe trackpad connector was damaged, inspect and replace. I assume you changed the complete trackpad+cable as one unit.

Yes , I've tried with various trackpads / trackpad cables, it seems this is not the cause of the problem. Any other directions?

Diode mode on pin 17 and 19 of trackpad connector? Also disconnect Airport cable as this shares the data bus with the trackpad sensor.

Thank you. Diode mode on pin 17 and 19 of trackpad connector = 0.597V when Airport cable is disconnected. Also the Mac works perfectly fine like that. R5270 = 0.998 Kohm, R5271 = 0.952 Kohm. R5271 allows 5% deviation - right on the border. Could that be it or should I look elsewhere?

So with airport disconnected it is ok? Then it is probably the cable or the connector, try with other LCD assembly
