unfortunately i dont have access to that at all. i live in small town iowa so nothing for hours away. i replaced the smc with another and im gettting the exact same problem

I'm really out of ideas. I have no clue how the fan can be running on full and diagnostics not giving an error.

im thinking this has got to be an smc issue. even if i short smc_lid to ground on the resistor before the smc the screen still fails to turn off. thinking i got screwed on these smcs. i got reballed ones just to make it easier on myself since i dont have anything to hold the chip as i reball but in any case, things that are smc related that were working before arent now.

Uhm, you got reballed SMCs.....yeah that is a good way to never know which board they came from. Go take one from a donor board.
