Hi, everyone.
I need some help, please.

This Macbook came in with no power. After inspection I found
Liquid damage, corrosion near USB C controller (CF300)
Both ports were initially stuck on 5V

Replaced the USB C controller that is stuck on 5V, no difference.
Replaced the second USB-C controller, no difference
ISL9240 was replaced and is still the same.

Both USB-C ports are stuck on 5V and 0.3amp for 3 sec and drop to 0.02amp.
Measurements around controllers match with a good board.

I can't think of the next step. Please help.

I did replace from a M1 pro board and now one port is getting 20V and cycling and the other one is still stuck on 5V.

So you've replaced both chips from donor board same model, maintaining their position on the MLB?

Usually cycling port is trying to boot, so problem should be on the other port.

I got a donor board with the same model and replaced the USB-C controllers in the same position.

One port was still stuck at 5V, and the other port was cycling at 20V.

Upon further investigation, I found no connection between pin 12 on UF300 and CF300.
Basically, UF300 wasn't getting PP3V3_UPC0_LDO

I jumped the wire, and now both ports are at 20V, but they are still cycling.
