First of all, welcome to the forum!

Did you fix Fsys checksum, after SSN has been changed?

I reorganized my Google Drive, so the above link doesn't work anymore.
Try the file you've got as is, with the SSN comes on it.
Or try this one:
If the machine loads macOS, then need to change SSN and finally fix Fsys checksum.
 
hi , pls show me the procedure after changing the i/o and bios. What is fsys and changing serial number. ? I have 3 such 820-00165 motherboards. They all have same issue. I want to use them. Pls guide me. Thanks

Medusa programmer can do all the job onboard; clean ME, change serial number, fix Fsys checksum and more.
Good to get it, if you plan to repair Apple stuff.

Or you can use UEFITool NE, to solve the actual problem with Fsys checksum.
