    Macbook A1989 / 820-00850 Restart problem

    Hi,

    I'm working on a A1989 820-00850 Logic Board.
    The customer complained that the machine restarted randomly.
    From the analysis I made to the Logic Board, I detected a small corrosion in the IC U7430.
    Although the diode values are all correct, I replaced the IC with another one. But the machine kept the same problem.
    However, I noticed that whenever I use the Heaven software, the machine restarts after a few seconds. That is, it is enough to have an increase in graphics processing for the machine to restart.

    Has anyone had a situation similar to this?

    It is possible to start by inspecting the board for corrosion or(after) turning off the discrete card and test.

      Thanks for your reply.

      Already looked for corrosion, and the only place i found was in the IC i mentioned above.
      This machine has integrated graphics, not a discrete card.

        macbook pro A1989 restart when sleep and A1707 restart when shutdown

        I got macbook pro A1989 that has sleep wake failure..always restart when put in sleep mode or close the lid..if i shut down and close the lid there would be no problem at all.. already reinstall the mac os but still has the same problem even restore with DFU mode.

        and for macbook pro A1707, this one always restart when i try to shut down..always restart when put in sleep mode.

        MacBook Pro A1989 820-00850-A not powering on
        by ErinV
        Hey everyone!

        I have a MacBook Pro A1989 with a 820-00850-A board that recently stopped working. I used it overnight to charge my phone, in the morning it didn't turn on, I assumed flat battery but now won't charge and doesn't start at all.

        I have fully dissassembled it, when disconnected the battery reads at 0.012V. Even with the battery disconnected the laptop doesn't boot.

        The diode voltages around all 4 CD3215's seem fine.

        For all CD3215 (UB300, UB400, U3100 and U3200) I read just above 5V on PP20V_USBC_TA_VBUS, 3.3V on PP3V3UPC_TA_LDO, 1.8V...

        Macbook Pro A1989 - No image, working fine with external monitor
        by Madoy104
        Hi everyone,


        I have a MacBook Pro A1989 that was likely exposed to liquid. It doesn't display an image on the built-in screen, but the screen is backlit (you can't see the Apple logo or any other elements when held up to light). The laptop provides 20V and 1.5-2A, and it works fine when I use it with an external monitor. Currently, the connector for the display (J8500) is disconnected. I'm writing to ask for help in diagnosing the issue. I've heard that when the J8500 is exposed to liquid, the processor pin responsible for the display might short-circuit, and I'd like to know...

        Macbook A1989, 820-00850, won't boot. 20V, 0A.

        Today I have a MacBook A1989 at work 820-00850. When assembled, the laptop switches to 20 volts but the consumption is 0.00 ampere. if the motherboard is on the table then the consumption of all ports is 5 volts and0.35 amperes and does not go to 20 volts only if you assemble a MacBook.
        Here are some measurements, maybe someone can tell what the problem is.
        The initial problem was a burnt out induction coil L8504 (replaced).
        When connected to another MacBook, it constantly hangs in dfu and cannot install updates, something is wrong.

        MacBook Pro A1989 trackpad and keyboard not working
        by biosdi
        Hi guys.
        I Just replaced battery on my MacBook Pro A1989. Unfortunately doing that, I’ve broken the trackpad flex cable (821-01701-a), and I’ve already ordered a spare one. At the same moment I’ve noticed that also the keyboard it’s not working anymore and I’ve found an SMD chip unsoldered and moving freely inside the backplate. I can read L20L on the chip. Is something could explain the keyboard not working or the keyboard doesn’t work due the unconnected trackpad?




        thanks...
