820-3462-A A1425 Doesn't see ssd

820-3462-A A1425 ssd doesn't appear
I think they tried a ssd converter on it and now not even its original ssd appear.
I get 3.3v on J4500 as instructed by its schematics.
Where should I focus now?
(Smc...) (U4900....) It goes through U4900. Could the problem be on U4900?
Device works but ssd doesn't appear at all.

Boot USB macOS and check if internal SSD is at least det4ected in Disk Utility.
This test is good to discard a problem with partitions; like deleted, or APFS.

Check first L4500/10.

hi,
i already checked it L4500 i wrote above text (I get 3.3v on J4500 ) so do i need to check U4900 (Smc) ?
And also I checked ssd cable and tried diffrent cable but doesnt see ssd. And i checked ssd with different device, it works.

"i already checked it L4500"
What about L4510?

Remember to change the view in Disk Utility to show all devices and partitions rather than just valid volumes.

I get 3.3v on I4500 and 5v on L4510 but this line cannot be used for SSD. I think it's SATA GUMSTICK2. For normal HDD, I get 3.3v on 1 to 14 on J4500. The owner said that it's been like this since they tried to replace the SSD.

Then check for knocked off components, or broken traces.

SATA_SSDRHDD_D2R_P , SATA_SSDRHDD_D2R_N, SATA_SSDRHDD_R2D_P, SATA_SSDRHDD_R2D_N
There are 4 lines through the hdd socket, none of which seems damaged.If you could be more explanatory, I can move forward more easily Could you give me directions from the schematics on which path should I take or which lines should I test?

Check R4506/07/08/10 and C4517/18/22/25.
Also check diode mode to ground on these lines.

Try known good SSD flex too.
Do not trust new chinese bulshits.

On J4500 from its 20-22 R4506 and R4507 seems to be working. There is line between the socket and resistors. Resistors are in fine shape.
Also on J4500, 36-38, on R4510 & R4508 there is line to the resistors and they are working as well.
I checked 4517, 4518, 4522, 4525 capacitors, all are 10nf

You should check diode mode to ground on data lines.

i checked data line diod mode.
ı wrote above about it On J4500 from its 20-22 R4506 and R4507 seems to be working. There is line between the socket and resistors

 

[2informaticos]

SSD data lines have series caps.
Did you check diode mode on the PCH's side of them?
You can also check the other side, when SSD is connected.
