MacBook Air A1466 Board 820-3209-a quarter fan spin nothing else

[No-Clean]

MacBook Air A1466 Board 820-3209-a quarter fan spin nothing else, no water damage, battery looks swollen.

SMC reset did noting.

Light turns green when charger is plugged in, then it turns orange, fan spins for a second or so then it stops, a few seconds go by then it spins again for one second and it repeats.

If fan spins, board is in S0 state.
Check if you get voltage on all big coils in that moment.

ALL_SYS_PWRGD goes high?
Any pulse at U1950, pins 7 & 3?
Check for corrosion around U6100, Q7950 and U1950.

Can you start in SMC bypass mode?

Sorry, what big coils, Im still learning the parts names, Im a newbie.

ALL_SYS_PWRGD goes high? Pulses from 0 to 3.3v
Any pulse at U1950, pins 7 & 3? I could not find U1950 on this board

U6100 looked okay but not great so I re solder it, Q7950 looks great and U1950 does not exists in thisboard.​

Can you start in SMC bypass mode?

Yes, but the only difference is that the fan spins at full sped rather than slow-medium speed.

"I could not find U1950 on this board"
Mea culpa; Apple use that chip number in many schematics.
In your board is U2750.

"I cloould not find
ISL6259 on this board"
Nor on page 53 (U7000)???

In SMC bypass mode, board stays on, or restarts too?

Any history available?

In u2750 the only pin with voltage is pin 5 with a steady 3.3v not pulsing

U7000 Pins 17-18 resistance is 90.2 ko and 27-28 is 1.018 ko

SMC Bypass the fan spins at top speed for about 1 second or so and repeats, same thing as the original problem, but faster fan speed, nothing else happens.

Im puzzled!

One thing I noticed before and after replacing the components is that pins 17 and 18 are shorted or have continuity.

 

[No-Clean]

Ok removed U7000 and the green light came back and it turns orange, no fan spin and pins 17-18 are shorted as well as pins 27-28.

If pins 17/18 and 27/28 measure 20 and 2.2, then they are NOT shorted they are exactly as they should measure. Replace the ISL properly and remeasure before powering it up. If all checks out, see if it powers on.
