Woah! Missed this update... Dang. So, with LCD disconnected it does not echo - and I don't have one of those fancy dongles yet for testing an external monitor. I did order a parts computer with a cracked but working display and a "good" motherboard based on the theory of the ram dying - Guess I...
I sure hope it's not a goner... Here is the sn.C02D2QCLDRVC. Because it was introed in 2011, would that essentially make it have a 2011bd instead of a 2012?
I'm not someone that wants to play the ram game :( on a personal level, how would you recommend I talk to my client about it.. She brought...
Upddate #4
I don't have a spare screen on hand to just try swapping it out. So here are some measurements around the LVDS conn. All are in diode mode with the screen connected unless otherwise noted.
R5250 p1@ 0.309 p2@ 0.72wo/screen 0.496w/screen
R5251 p1@ 0.309 p2@ 0.723wo/screen 0.492w/screen...
Update #3
Put back into housing - Chime loops again. Started testing with lest and less attached. Screen seems to be causing the issue? LVDS Cable has a 0 written on the bottom of it with a silver marker. Looks like the screen or cable is a replacement. Did I just have a clients screen crap out...
Ok. All apart, on my bench, one speaker hooked up. After going over the whole board, looks perfect. A few to look like they got some heat around the R5127 area.
Oddly, Q7801 looks like it's on upside down... Ground pad is on top (see pic) not the problem as it's been like that - but my 3 doaner...
Sorry this isn't an answer - But I want to say good on you. I have had a few times where I just want to keep hammering away on a "throw it away" board. I don't just want to get "Bro" solutions from this forum either. It does frustrate me when the people helping me are beating me down telling me...
Hello all. Received a working MBA the other day, along with a new MB to do a data transfer too.
Transfer went fine using migration assistant.
Last night I left the MBA on doing a time machine back before wiping it and installing high Sierra.
Booted fine this morning, stuck in my live thumb drive...
Thanks for the heads up Duke, how do you talk to your clients about putting a cosmetically damaged item in as a replacement? How bad are the scratches He and scuffs normally?
Thanks Atomrepair, I did manage to get one for a MacBook pro, but it ended up being a pressed screen.. They were extremely sorry and gave me a refund because their warehouse fked up with the qc. It definitely was a pain in the ass to install.
Any feedback on the quality of the other parts they...
Hey all, so my supplier has informed me that good quality lcd panels are becoming harder/ impossible to aquire in the market by themselves and that most new screens now are sold as the original top clamshell and original lcd panel, but assembled by another third party lcd shop.
Prices are a bit...
So, I have had a client or 2 come in with a computer that died for a week, then started working again with no issues for a few weeks.he brought it in for me to look at and I found some water damage.
Now, from his perspective his macbook was A-OK but from my perspective it was a ticking time...
Any suggestions as to a good source for original batteries? Will the system still lag without a battery in the system?
My seller for my stocked batteries has done well for me so far, the 2 air batteries I used and only unibody one have been top tier from what I can tell. Just this Amazon one has...
I just stuck an A1322 Battery in it and i get an orange light, and its working off of battery. SO seems that pos batterie is the problem.... Its sad that I have more confidence in my Chinese vendor than i do amazon now.. FYI stay away from SIKER
As for the other info - condition says normal, 12...
There is a lot you are asking for one post. This is how I learned my BIOS stuff. Here you go ielectron https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rvrCSntnhyM I believe bios is around the 1hr mark or so!

I don't have a doner for that one on hand, but it looks like this is your board? I am really unfamilar with that model if so. As for the SMC reset, if you drain the battery some so that the charging light will turn orange when plugged in. When you preform the SMC Reset, the light will...
Hey all, This is a warranty repair from a previous job I had. You can see previous thread in the link.
I am suspicious that the battery I got was crap (amazon purchase). Unfortunately I do not have another battery to test it with on hand and I am located in south america so shipping will take...
