It had a dead short to ground at c7804 which is pp3v3_g3h_pmu_vddmain. I injected 3 volts to find it. now pp1v8_slps2r is 0v. do i need to replace to capacitor or no?
this board had a liquid spill and now it will not start with the charger alone although the magsafe charger has an amber indicator . it only starts with the battery but it appears to charge
i tried plugging in a charger in one port while doing a restore with the dfu port and apple came up on the display. apparently that 5 volts from the usb port of the other machine wasn't enough. Now it's up and running again
i'm getting 20v after programming u3060 with an original file. the ppbus is still 12.3v and the device stays in dfu even after running the configurator. upc_i2c_int_l is still 0v even though ppdcin is 20v.
writing the Soc ROM didn't change anything. I noticed that ppdcin is 19v only when a charged battery is attached to the board. Otherwise the amp meter sits at 5v 0.000a and it is stuck in dfu
i tried a revive it with the configurator and it gets stuck at step 4 of 4 installing system. force quitting the configurator is the only option. the board remains in dfu mode afterwards.
