- PM_RMRST_L - 3.32V
- PM_PWRBTN_L - 3.32V
When I short SMC_ONOFF_L to ground at SW5200, PM_PWRBTN_L (measured at R1802) goes to a few millivolts while I hold the short. It then comes back to 3.3V when I release the short.
So somehow I now have S5_PWRGD but I don't have P5VS4_PGOOD, and R7802 is approximately 100K.
I then found that P5VS4_EN_RCD is missing , and more importantly that PM_SLP_S5_L (its dependency) is missing.
Could you please point me what PCH signals need to be present for PM_SLP_S5_L to be...
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...
Everything near U7100, U7210, and U7220 looks really clean.
CPUVR_SWSA - L7270 - 1.10v
PPVCCSA_S0_CPU - R7270 - 1.03v
CPUVR_PGOOD - 3.02v
CPUCORE_PWM1 (the PWM pin to U7210) - 2.48v (measured as DC)
CPUCORE_FCCM - 14.1mV (600k to ground) - Another clue I am guessing contributing to why I'm...
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...
Neither the data lines nor the PP5V_S0SW_LCD resistance - I thought those should be measured without the LCD connected - will redo those measurements then.
All the voltages above were done with the LCD connected and the board flipped around - I'll also order another flex cable in case Apple...
Oh very interesting, thanks for the hint! Below are the measurements once again while lid is open and external monitor connected.
5V_S0SW_LCD - 5V for a second
PP3V3_S0SW_LCD (R8520 Pin 2) - 3.3v for a second
DP_INT_HPD (R8501 Pin 1) - 3.3v for a second
EDP_PANEL_PWR_EN (R8510 Pin 1) - 3.1v for...
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...
No I don't have another DC in board, but I tried the same dc in board on a donor 820-3462-A and it gives a green light.
EDIT: AHA! Looks like something is pulling the 3.2v from the charger to be 1v. I just need to find whats pulling it down.
EDIT:
I got 18v!! Just for future reference, read...
