when it comes down to retina keyboards replacement, it's pretty much time wasting for me. have to correct those rivet after pulling out the keyboard one by one,some can't be taken out, so after keyboard installation I just glue those rivets together with the keyboard holes. what tool you guys...
2011 model is pretty easy to do. it's 0.45 balls..takes a minute or two to reball.
I usually use a led flash light, the very bright one, shine the light and try to look right at the contact between the SMC and the soldering points on the board, and just move it until they kinda line up.
It is...
anything possible related to PCH ? since this is usb related?

Pulled off the battery indicator. otherwise 99% is the SMC. I've seen a lot, when u7000 got a burnt hole, the charging function would be fucked and SMC needs to replaced..

knowing it's the ME issue, flashed the bios with cleaned me file. all boots up and works now!!
thanks for the advice guys!

I poled around and compared with the good board, found one thing can be the hint.
diode mode on pp3v3_s0, only gets 0.035

but when powers on, pp3v3_s0 is 3.3v still , doesn't look like pulling down. something shorted?
yes both , no video at all. not back light issue.
Checked with a DC power supply,compare with good board.
good board should jump from 0.01 to 1.4 AMP after boot up.
this one only goes to 0.4A then stop, looks like some voltage is not coming out, but checked all big coil , they all exist...
FIXED! thanks a lot! turned out to be bad trace to the pad of the SMC, jumped a wire and all good now running without errors!
