larossmann Any recommendations for a good wholesale LCD provider?

No Title I'm still saving up for a microscope and ultrasonic cleaner, but I can get the job done at least

Ok, yes it does become present briefly when it's trying to turn on

aprendiz I get 4.65 on pins 2&5 meaning I'm getting PCH_PWR_EN# and #3V_PCH is not present, and now I've also replaced Q43. I'm getting VSB+ but on the other side of the 200k resitor R181 I get nothing, not sure if that's normal.

No, you don't slide it out, you slide the plastic piece maybe an inch then lift with it up ease.

As far as I know, you should just be able to slide it to the left or right, and then it comes off easily

Hi, I have a Compel LA-8711P board that gets power for an S5, S4, S3 and even turns on briefly with a quater fan spin, but shuts down after a second. There was a tiny amount of liquid damage around the mosfet Q43 and a 200k resistor R181. I was able to clean the corrosion off and replace R181...

Yeah, the stuff sticks on amazingly, I've used it for in home repairs and making a clock for a friend, but when an iPad or macbook screen needs to come off.... Sigh

So I'm guessing no-one makes or sells that adhesive you used to praise?

I've been using 3M 300LSE, but find it's really hard to take off once adhered.

Ok, thanks for the info duke, I never knew that :)

I'm not sure about all 17", but I've worked with dozens of 15" and they boot fine off of a 65 watt

God Dammit, I'm using a 60W, it's worked fine for every other newer machine... do these older macbook SMC's draw more current?

This sounds like an SMC bypass, and in doing so, also loosing wifi, fan control, ect. Check if you're getting S5_PWRGD, SMC_RESET_L, PM_SLP_S5_L, and PM_SLP_S4_L, and when you in the OS, go to the system info and see if your computer can see what SMC firmware your running

Just to rule out the basics, I'm assuming you've tried another hard drive, or made sure that one isn't dead. Try an SMC reset like suggested above, if that doesn't work, Check U4510 to see if it's getting voltage and SATARDRVR_EN

I know, I know, you guys are going to pound me for touching such an old piece of shit, but I've already spent 30+ hours on this, and I'm just itching out of personal curiosity to know what's going on with it. I have Green Light, S5 state, SMC_ONOFF_L, RSMRST_PWRGD, PM_PWRBTN_L, PM_SLP_S4_L...
