    [SOLVED]A1502_820-4924-A No backlight after water damage

    No I dont have any screens, if its the screen the customer will scrap it I think. Is there no way of testing it without another screen ? . The only screen I have is the original one.

    [SOLVED]A1502_820-4924-A No backlight after water damage

    No the only corrosion on the connector was on pin 28 which I have re soldered, none of the other pins have any corrosion at all on them. How does a connector get internally shorted as the pins just go from the pad to the connector through a bit of plastic ?

Pin 1 on lcd connector - PPVOUT_S0_LCDBKLT in diode mode shows OL in both directions in diode mode, in resistance mode shows high, then low, then high then low, like a...

    A1706 works,now suddenly had no ssd

    Iv checked that socket and it just has a blanking plate connector plugged into it. Removed that and cleaned the connector and plug and plugged it back in and put the screws back in the connector, but still nothing. Iv already done a visual check on the board under the microscope and it...

    A1706 works,now suddenly had no ssd

    Iv got a macbook touchbar a1706 here that had water damage apparently. I didnt see much evidence of this on the board though other than stickers that had changed colour. So I change the battery and this solves the problem of it not wanting to charge the battery. I run the battery down all day...

    The mac will run on the battery if it is replaced with new one. When the charger is plugged in the charger will turn from green to orange. When the mac boots the battery icon is shown as an X. u7100 has been replaced as I see that Louis had this issue and replacing this ic solved the problem...

    820-3115 No hard drive detect

    Iv only just stated doing them and its the first one iv seen with a flex cable, all the other 4 iv got here are ssd slots on the board. Il see if I can find any new ones that are actually new and just not advertised as such. Just fixing the bad traces seems to sort the problem though.

    820-3115 No hard drive detect

    Bingo !, that worked as expected. I just scraped down to the copper on the two traces nearest to the screw hole on each side of the kink in the cable. Ran a jumper for each of the two lines, circuit board masked it, job done !. Once its screwed down its on the bottom side so you cant even tell...

    820-3115 No hard drive detect

    Very interesting !. so iv just scraped the coating off the cable either side of the kinks and all cables beep fine apart from the two outer lines that are nearest to the screw hole. So I think we have found our common point of failure. those two lines are the two above data lines. So just going...

    820-3115 No hard drive detect

    If I plug the drive in and do a continuity test from the resistors back to the drive (half plugged in with copper showing) SATA_HDD_R2D_N and SATA_HDD_R2D_P I dont get a beep SATA_HDD_D2R_C_P and SATA_HDD_D2R_C_N I do. so im going to test from the pins on the connector now back to the drive and...

    Just done a voltage drop to ground on the chip pins and each pair has the same reading as its partner.
