Could be solder problem on SMC.
Reflow and carefuly tap it until dance a bit.
If still the same, reball it.
Finally changed it, if still same issue.

I have a board like this with a similar defect, it presents PPbus_g3h 8.4v, PP3v42_g3h--3.4v , would the SMC be the defect? I have already replaced the u7000 and do not contain oxidation or corroded components.

Welcome to the forum!

Please do not hijack another thread.
Same symptom can be caused by different issue.
Open new thread, as you will need to post various signals and voltages...
