      Problem

      This is an LG edge LED lit LCD Display. The LEDs are on the bottom edge of the display. There are 2 bars (left and right) Each bar has many LEDs and a 6 pin connector. Each pin drive several LEDs thus is the highest current flow / heat junction. The weak lead free solder gradually fails with thermal expansion/contraction cycling and increases resistance. PSU will compensate up to a point, then when the current is too high, PSU just shut down the backlight causing a dark display. I have even seen one which the connector just fell off as solder points became completely detached....

      MacBook Pro late 2016 (820-00239) with multiple failure modes.
      by npielawski
      I will just preface all this by saying that I have a fairly technical background but have never attempted SMD electronics diagnostics and repair before, I really like the idea and want to learn.

      I have a MacBook Pro late 2016 that died maybe four years ago. Over the course of 30 seconds, it got slower and stuttered, until it froze for a second and died. No click from the trackpad anymore, nothing. I started getting interested in electronics repair and decided to give it a shot, so I opened it, removed the battery (one cell was puffy), took out the motherboard and experimented with...

      No power - ramping voltage on multiple components - HP ENVY X360 13-ar, MB:G1 13 AMD X360 18740-1 448.0GA03.0011
      by w00pz
      Need help identify problem component or next steps to test.

      The motherboard isn't working there is no power indicator light and overall no power on.
      However, I have identified multiple 19v, 14, 11v, 10v and 5v points across the board but nothing that goes below 5v.

      No I have reached a part of the board where I think there is a problem.
      Multiple components (buck converters?) that are ramping up voltage. I have marked all the details in the picture, the problem is at the pink components - they are ramping up over of a few minutes from 0v to 4v and beyond....

      Sincere thanks to the BadCaps community for your help 🙏

      Dear BadCaps community,




      I would like to sincerely thank everyone here for your help and support.

      Thanks to the files and clear instructions shared on this forum, I successfully updated the BIOS of my Intel DQ965GF (Guardfish) motherboard to version 6100.




      Everything went smoothly, and the system is now working perfectly.

      This update meant a lot to me — I’ve been learning about BIOS flashing for quite some time, and your guidance finally made it possible.




      I truly appreciate...
