    MacBook Air power on problem

    The laptop is dead. Has 3 and 5 V, but that is as much as i can do. I can't recognize the keyboard controller, and i don't have the schematic.
    It is a dead end for me.
    Any help would be appreciated.

    Motherboard model is 820-2179-C, notebook model is A1237.

    I have three motherboards, none works, i would be happy if i can manage to power up at least one of them.

    i have schematic and board view files but can send them 2 days later(i'm out of the city), if you have a known good keyboard, try connecting it. power switch is on the keyboard and most of the cant power issues wit this model is about keyb.
    good luck

        OK.
        Tnx!

        We will wait for your bord view.

        I have a known good keyboard, so i ruled that out. It must be the board it self.

                          hello, would it be possible to obtain schematics for the above laptop *including* audio codec pin assignements? the above pdf, with PVT version, does not include those. i cannot read the .brd file, but it would be nice if someone could post that pdf with SVT version, or any other schem available for A1237 including the audio codec pin assignemnts. for the records, i'm trying to make microphone work under linux
