820-3332 missing PPVCCSA_S0_REG

Hi there,

I'm struggeling with an MBP 2012 15" (820-3332). It was running with typical screen blsckout issues so I resoldered U8900 with leaded solder but without success. So I wanted to replace U8900. While removing it, it slipped out the tweezers and landed straight on the components around R8918. I put them back on place carefully and replaced U8900.
Now the Macbook does not turn on anymore. ALL_SYS_PWRGOOD is missing because of missing PPVCCSA_S0_REG.
U7100 gets power and enable voltage.

Thank you and best regards
Dudi

Do you get RAM voltage at least?
Be sure to resolder all components correctly.
Do not solder components marked as "NOSTUFF".

Yes I'm getting PP1V5R1V35_S3_MEM and PP0V75_S3_MEM.
I resoldered all components very carefully. Had a donor board where i was able to compare the original positions of the components.
No NOSTUFF components soldered ;-)

Check U7100 voltages; pins 19, 20, 15, 7.
If all good, change it.
Be sure no short to ground at L7100.

Pins 19,20,15 and 7 seem to be good (5V, 5V, 3.3V and 0.65V)
Got 8.5 Ohms on L7100.
Changed U7100 but same result.
