Very clean board. No corrosion anywhere and only minor dust.
Green/amber light but no life. No response to SMC bypass. Checking the rails everything looks good down to pp5v_s5 which is bouncing around from 3v-4.4v. PPVIN_S5_P5V is solid at 12.58v. Almost everything else on U7501 is bouncing...
PM_PWRBTN_L drops to .361 for a few seconds then back up.
PM_SLP_S5_L pulses on its own from 0v to .8v-1.3v every 5 seconds.
PM_SLP_S4_L pulses on its own from 0v to .8v-1.3v every 5 seconds.
PM_SLP_S3_L pulses on its own from 0v to .8v-1.3v every 5 seconds.
PM_SLP_S0_L pulses on its own...
3V3_S5/SUS - both are 3.3v
smc bypass was tried while in the case and from the board.
Weird symptom - I get amber magsafe without I/O cable attached. This normally doesnt happen.
Very clean board with the exception of a little blue around u6101. Magsafe green then orange.
Cleaned area with no change. Replaced u1900, u6101 and cleaned under u6100. All resistors around test good.
Mac came to me with a chinese charger so I switched attention to ISL. Replaced twice, no...
I get a light on USB device on this side but no data. Left side is fine.
Board appears clean other than very minor corrosion around C7336 and some gunk in left side USB (removed).
Replaced i/o board and both cables with known good.
Same function in boot menu/OS.
With known good LCD, new disp cable, new u8950 - values before and after power applied. Still no backlight/img.

I do not get any pulse on PP3v3/ PP5V_S0SW_LCD with display connected or without. I do get PP3v3/ PP5V_S5 on u8500/01 and other S0 rails.
Does this point to u8500/01/10 for creation of S0SW_LCD?
Just received a Mac from eBay very similar to this one.. Couldn't get around critical update. No touch bar or keyboard backlight.
Clean everywhere but when looking under u4200 I noticed junk around pins 36-84 so I replaced from a donor board.
Mac took a while to boot the first time but...
with disp connected after about 15 seconds I get the following:
EDP_PANEL_PWR_EN - 3.283V
DP_INT_HPD_R - 3.259V (this one was hard to measure..)
Not a pulse but steady values.
Similar to my other recent post except no video internal or external. No image or backlight.
This was a fully working MacBook that had a cracked display. Customer brought into a local shop that replaced the display resulting in this. Caps lights up, fans spin, in-line meter appears to show the...
DP_INT_HPD does not do anything with board only connected to power, no disp. What is this?
By connector do you mean J8500 or the flat cable? At first I did not replace the cable but after the first attempt I did replaced the flat cable that connects to j8500 and tested with a complete case. For...
