No obvious damage, good magsafe. Gets orange light, but ALL_SYS_PWRGD is stuck low and I don't quite understand how to follow back to see why.
Power rails:
PPDCIN_G3H: 20.85

Multiple liquid damage points. Near R8711 ssd 1v8 power was especially bad. Replaced and tested nearly everything in that section.
Also found damage on cc805 and cc804 pins 1 pads were missing completely. Replaced and reattached with magnet wire. Nervous about that since it's CPU power...
dudipupan check this shiz out: https://boards.rossmanngroup.com/threads/820-00165-cpu-heats-up-draws-35a.60817/
I think we had basically the same issue after all power signals were good. Missing PLT_RESET_L so the PCH/CPU was in constant reset.
lol so i got impatient, and tomorrow's the day i'm supposed to tell the customer if it's fixable or not.
reflowed the CPU at around 350c, with a lake of flux and full airflow. I paid attention to the CPU pcb mostly, kept away from the CPU die itself but did hit the pch die area after i felt...
My issues seem to mirror this person's: https://boards.rossmanngroup.com/threads/820-00165-powers-on-but-no-usb-activity-and-no-post.60774/#post-71615
Including the power off when I measure CPUVR_PGOOD_R. If I measure this between reboot cycles I can get a reading without it powering off.
Thank you again 2. It was thankfully the PMIC. Had to reball a donor like 3 times because I've never been good at doing the real big chips, and it likes to fly off.
I learned to control my airflow, change to a larger nozzle, and move my scope so i can blow straight down onto the chip...
PM_SLP_SUS_L shows .003 in diode mode. 10 ohms black on ground in resistance mode.
U8200 removed = same. r1237 @ 100k out of circuit
So PCH or PMIC? PMIC on the data lines that dead TVS diode was on.
It got better looks like. Am I wrong in not adding PP beforehand?
Edit: when i reread this it looks like i'm being a jerk, i'm not. Maybe I measured at a different point before? Is .98 low enough to assert pm_slp_sus_l?
Thanks, yes PPBUS is present at 12.60. I know that a 00281 and 00928 aren't compatible SMC wise, it was wishful thinking is all.
I'll start going down the lines again to check I haven't lost anything else now.
HA! OK so SCL on J6951 (battery data cable) was low in diode mode. Replaced TVS diode D6950. Now it negotiates 20v at a normal speed, instead of taking 10 seconds or more. Board Takes .320 mA now according to ammeter. Same with a battery.
I have one 00928 SMC if needed, don't suppose a 00281...
Yeah. I'm gonna try that actually. Thanks.
It does actually take quite some time to get to 20v. Like 20 - 30 seconds, like it was a 2014 air going through 2 restarts before starting up
Did it again. Fresh 9239 from sealed package. Same exact result. :( Do these have SMC issues or BIOS issues?
Would it be any use to remove the U7000 and provide diode measurements?
