    MacBook Pro 820-2915 no backlight

    Ok when I received this Mac it had no chime and mouse connected did nothing
    I looked over cpuvcore and restored it. There was work done and a few joints weren't soldered well. No I have a issue with the onboard audio and no image
    I plug a mouse in and it now blinks. Im looking at the schematic and see u9000 gets power from r9094 and r9094 gets powered by q9607.

    L9000 0v
    R9094 0v on both 1-2
    Q9607 on en I get .3 v is one of these internally shorted ?
    R9676 :
    pin 1 pp3v3= 3.3
    pin 2 gmux_s3_pd_en =.3v
    C9010 0v on both pins
    All_sys_pwrgd 3.3v

    I thought since the onboard speaker wasn't working it might be the 3.3 power rail
    Might have a issue but everywhere I search for this rail it's good. Please if my diagnoses is off please let me know. thank you everyone

    820-2915 = dead GPU.
    Not sure why would someone mess around CPU VCore though.

      Dear god I never want to see this board in my life again... I've done two UMA conversions on those. I'll never touch them again

      TLDR:
      Not worth your time. Unfixable.

              You want ASD 3S144 or 3S148 not AHT, ASD provides more information. (it's not distributed by Apple since it's their internal diagnostics software but you can find it on the web)

                  Well the WiFi issue was the cable 821-1311a one of the pins damaged. And the keyboard I saw it when I first opened it has a hole so I think someone burned the keyboard even though backlight still works. I’m ordering a new one. As for the trackpad I just don’t know as of yet
