A1398 820-3787-A no power

Hi.

I have an A1398 820-3787-A with no green light and no power.

It had U7190 burnt and I've replaced it.

Now, P5V1_VIN = 19.7V (shoulden't it be only 5V?)

PPDCIN_G3H_CHGR was shorted, and after replacing Q7130 the short is gone.

However, i don't have no power and no green light on charger.

PP3V42_G3H = 3.4V
PPDCIN_G3H = 20V

PPBUS_G3H = 0V and 0.446 on diode reading

Can you help?

U7100:
1 = 18.53V
2 = 0.004V
3 = 4.7V
9 = 0.001V
12 = 3.4V
13 = 3.4V
14 = 0.007V
15 = 0.053V
17 = 0.041V
19 = 0.192V
20 = 0.205V
27 = 0.535V

Are you sure about pins 1 & 2?

Check R7180/81 and R7185/86 values; onboard, ohm scale.
Also be sure they have good traces.

Hi.

Yes, I've just recheked them:
U7100:
1 = 18.53V
2 = 0.004V

R7180 = 99.9 kohm
R7181 = 61.9 kohm
R7185 = 468.3 kohm
R7186 = 329.5 kohm

All traces have continuity

"2 = 0.004V"
Check for short there.
U7100 was shorted. After replacing it, now I have:
1 = 0V
2 = 4.7V
3 = 4.7V
9 = 0.033V
12 = 3.4V
13 = 3.4V
14 = 3.3V
15 = 0.053V
17 = 12.54V
19 = 5.4V
20 = 5.4V
27 = 17.75V


My shematic seams to be wrong, causeI can't find Q7010 on this board (seams a different chip there with 8 pins)

R7105 was bad. After replacing it, I've got the correct ohm value. D7105 seams to be OK.

CHGR_DCIN_D_R = 19.75V

However, Still the same behavier.

Post again mentioned U7100's pins.
Also post U7010 voltages; use lines name on the boardview!
Q7010 has several adjacent components to use as test points.

Hi.

Can't find U7010 on this board. I think it was a typo.

U7100:
1 = 0.002V
2 = 19.74V
3 = 4.7V
9 = 0.033V
12 = 3.4V
13 = 3.4V
14 = 3.3V
15 = 0.053V
17 = 12.54V
19 = 5.4V
20 = 5.4V
27 = 16.30V

Q7010:
PPDCIN_G3H = 19.99V
PPDCIN_G3H_ISOL = 19.99V
DCIN_ISOL_GATE_R = 6.65V
DCIN_ISOL_GATE = 6.65V
PP20V_DCIN_CONN_R = 19.86V

"Can't find U7010"
Who asked you about that???

So you have correct 3V42_G3H and PPBUS_G3H.
No other basic voltages present?

Hi,

You've asked for U7010 voltages in previous reply. I guess it was a distraction.

It seams that sometimes the mac reboots randomly.

PPBUS_G3H = 12.56V (stable until reboots)
3V42_G3H = 3.4V (stable until reboots)
PP3V3_S5 = 3.3V (stable until reboots)

PP5V_S5 = 5V, but sometimes oscilates bettwen 2V and 5V. Other times goes to 0V for a long time.

Yeah sorry, just saw it now.
But I mentioned Q7010 more times; even in the same post with the typo.

Trigger SMC_ONOFF_L and check for frop pulse at PM_PWRBTN_L.
If catch it, check for pulse at PM_SLP_S4_L b (at same time).

Tried SMC bypass?

Hi,

I haven't tried SMC Bypass (sorry, forgeted), but it powers on in SMC Bypass.

When triggering SMC_ONOFF_L, i have drop pulse at PM_PWRBTN_L, but no pulse at PM_SLP_S4_L. However, I have no green light on charger

Shall I replace SMC?

This machine requires 85W charger.
If no (charged) battery connected, will not power up with 45/60W charger alone; ONLY in SMC bypass!

Hi.

After using an original 85W charger, the mac now powers on, but it dosen't charge the battery, and has no green light on the charger.

Shall i replace SMC?

Hi,

Yes. I've tried with a good DCIN board.

Right now i don't even have PP3V42_G3H

PPDCIN_G3H = 19.9V

PPBUS_G3H = 0V, and 0.454 diode reading
PP3V42_G3H = 0V, and 0.578 diode reading
PP5V_S5 = 0V, and 0.506 diode reading

PP3V3_S5 = 0V, and 0.152 on diode reading

U7000:
1= 0V
2= 0V
3= 0V
4= 0V
5= 0V

U7001:
1= 0V
2= 0V
3 = 0V
4= 0V
5= 0V

Any reason to check other voltages, when missing 3V42_G3H and PPBUS_G3H?
Put some logic in your job and don't waste time.

Check Q7010 voltages.
