    Macbook Pro 820-00840-A 20V but not turning on

    Hello all,

    I'm trying to figure out the issue with this macbook pro. It will not turn on or charge. When I plug in the charger using my USB-C ammeter I can see the voltage go from 5V to 11.7V to 20V but there is no current consumption. PP3V3_G3H is present. PPBUS_G3H attempts to go on but goes back off after only a very brief second. I do not see any short on PPBUS_G3H nor do I see any other obvious shorts on the other power rails that come after it. I removed U7650 to isolate all power rails that are created from it and I still get the same symptom. I also tried to replace U7000 with no change.

    I would greatly appreciate any input you have to offer. I have also attached the schematic and board view below.

    Thank you!

    History?
    If you remove F7000 do you still get 0V on its pin 1?

      Hello, thank you.

      My symptom actually ended up changing. It may have ended up happening after changing U7000, I can't remember if I measured PPBUS_G3H after replacing this IC or if I only checked with the ammeter for activity after replacement. Either way I now have a steady 13V on PPBUS_G3H and the current consumption on the ammeter goes between 0mA and 10mA. Still no power though and I do not measure activity on any other voltage rail.

      As for history, I don't know much. There is no sign of liquid damage, the motherboard looks squeaky clean.
