    same problem, the mac doesn't turn on, no light and sys_onwire 2.80v, and adapter sense 2.80 if I remove u6900 it goes up to 3.4v sys onewire and 0.7 V adapter sense It's possible that the u6900 is faulty, I don't have a compatible replacement

    Acok VCC 3.4v
    Thanks

          Monitor Audio RSW12 - Green light, but no sound
          by MOSSEP
          Hi

          Im hoping someone might be able to give me some idea of what may be wrong with my Monitor Audio RSW12 Sub.

          Ive owned it since new in around 2002, so would really like to keep it running if I can, it was the first ‘decent' bit of audio equipment I ever purchased and is a little sentimental.

          The issue I had was that it would power up with the red light, but sometimes the green light would not come on and I would get no bass from it. If the green light did come on though, I would get sound out of it.

          I have already tried replacing all of the...

          820-2610-A Sys onewire help, no green light. Please help from the gurus
          by lcdcaps1
          Hi

          I have an 820-2610-A motherboard that has no green light.
          I have noticed is when I do a SMC reset the light on the Magsafe blinks.
          From My understanding, the sys onewire circuit is responsible for the green light on the magsafe
          The sys onewire circuit on this model and others is more involved
          I was hoping if anyone knows about this and how it works, can reply and let me know
          I know this is an old model but I am sure there are people who still works on these or knows about them

          I get 1.1v on the C7771 capacitor and will replace...
