Happy Thanksgiving! I bought an A1707 that was liquid damaged. It sometimes turns on after leaving it alone for a while (albeit doesn't boot, but that might be a separate problem). Right now, these are what I probed for (not in order). It shows 0.05A and 20V from the USB-C meter. I poured...

Hi, I have an 820-00239-A that works minus two pretty big issues. Issue 1: When I plug in my charger or my flash drives, things work great independently. When I plug in my flash drive and charger together, it fries my flash drive and sends 20v straight to the drive (already fried 3 drives...

Hello folks, I recently bought a water damaged A1706 touch bar that doesn't have any chime (and obviously no display or fan). When connected to a USB-C monitor, the monitor turns on but no display (indicating its drawing some power). Here are the measurements I took - do you have suggestions on...

I bought an A1708 laptop (from original owner in person) for my personal use. 1) The original symptom was the screen would occasionally have a glitchy-looking screen until you move the display (indicating an issue with the flex cable). 2) Took it apart and (don't ask why, I was an idiot) while...

Hey, I got an 820-4924-A motherboard with possibly some liquid damage and just did a Bios ME Region clean (since it had an EFI lock in it). Battery charges and it runs off battery so I was happy, but now I am running into a new issue. The system is running very slow and kernel_task is using up...

I recently got a liquid damaged board which I got to the state of turning on and working. However, when I hook up two separate batteries, both are saying "not charging" and "replace now". When I look at System Diagnostics it shows current draw is 0mA. Things I checked: pin 17/18 of U7100 =...

Hi Everyone, My retina A1425 is not charging (but recognizes them fine), so I bought 2 new batteries and neither of those are charging either. Please let me know if you have any ideas, I am totally out :( Not sure if it helps but the fan is also spinning in full (might be because the logic...

Hi Guys, I recently purchased a "new" 820-3462A board (for the 2013 mbp retina) and for some reason my OSX installation went perfectly ok, but when I boot I get all sorts of weird artifacts on the login screen and when I move windows around quickly. I've already reinstalled twice and upgraded...

I got a 820-3462-A board that had liquid damage with no green light. I tracked down that PP18V5_DCIN_FUSE is missing (it starts at 1.27v and slowly increases til 1.5ish). I can't understand how the 18v gets activated from the charger, is that via the ADAPTER_SENSE line / U6900? I'm using an...
