Yes PPVCORE_S0_CPU is 0.7v. I didnt have the heatsink on so maybe that's why it was on high speed fan.
USB mouse led only works on 1 port.
I checked L4610 was bad. Pin 3 and Pin 4 are open. However, I have replaced L4610 still no good. PP5V_S3_RTUSB_B_F = 5v.
Bad D4610 or U2600? The diode...
I have put in a jumper between and now the fan spin but stay high speed, I have got mouse led too.
But C7272 actually came off with corroded solder pad .... is it OK to leave that removed?
Board has liquid damage with obvious corrosion around C7272/C7273 and also around F7040 area. Green light. No fan spin.
U7200 generates PP5V_S5 and has 5V when measured at pin 1 of C7273.
However, when measure the same PP5V_S5 at C7801, it is only 3.05V. But when I tried to measure the...
you are right, i didnt have the heatsink on so one of the temp sensors wasnt connected.
I connected the heatsink back and not more high fan spin.
But still no chime and black screen.
I was told this was a "new replacement board" from somewhere and the board is shiny and ultra clean [not entirely sure if it has been cleaned or what not]. There wasnt any sign of prior repair attempt.
Having said that the GPU could still be the culprit as both of you mentioned.
I am just...
No sign of water damage, board is clean.
Fan blast high speed as soon as magsafe is plugged in, led is green. Screen is black. No Chime.
When ram is in, no beep, When ram is out, slow ram beep. Put the ram back, no beep.
I measured all the power rail and all the voltages are correct, except...
PM_MEM_PWRGD = 3.3v diode mode = 347
ISOLATE_CPU_MEM_L = 0v diode mode = 460
Just in case... I re-measured all of the power rails on page 7 again and here are the strange one:
PP5V_SUS = 3.05v
PP1V5_S3RS0 = 0.35v
PP0V75_S0_DDRVTT = 0v (Is this because U7300 Pin 17=0v ?)...
