"Fan High Speed constantly"
Usually trackpad board/flex.
Sometime caused by LIO board/flex.
Their connectors can get problems by corrosion too.

As per schematic, p?ns 1, 2, 5, 6 for Q7706 are tied together.
Check if pins 2 & 5 of Q7707 are steady high.

Do you get steady 3V3 at pins 18/19 of J8300?
Also check pin 14 level.
Image always present, only backlight flickers?

JohnB8812 Looks like you were right.
Found some replacement io board and cable, just the high fan speed now :D
I will remember to always check with another IO board!

Thank you 2informaticos I will see if I can sort this fan issue now
 
Hi again,

Unfortunately the unit is back, high fan and slow performance only this time.
2informaticos I will test the keyboard flex cable, apart of that, any other things I should check?

Kind regards,
Daniel

I suppose corrosion still affects the board.
Possibly some crap accumulated under SMC/CPU.
You can try heating them untill 180-200 degrees; use only quality flux.
But inspect first for any liquid sign on the board.
 
thank you

OK, cpu heatpipe, cpu proximity, pch die, memory proximity and airflow report 128 degrees Celcius. I am guessing one or more sensores are broken, yes?
