    Macbook A2337 820-02016 No Power 5V

    Hello,
    Namaste.

    I have a Macbook A2337 820-02016. Customer was trying to update the software and the machine suddenly went off.

    Its stuck at 5V.

    Its not in DFU Mode - Checked.

    The PPBUS_AON is at 12.28V.

    PP3V8_AON_VDDMAIN checked at C5887 is shorted to Ground. All components on the board in this line are shorted . What can be the issue? Some IC that controls this line ?

      Meter set to the Lowest Scale (200). Getting 00.5.
      Checked with Another Meter set to Diode Mode (Omega Sign) Getting 55 Omega.

        SOLVED.

        Issue from the PMU. Reballed the PMU and the short was removed. Still wouldnt turn on so checked and found that the machine was on DFU. DFU revive and done.

            MacBook Air A2337 (820-02016) USB-C Port Issue – Only Works in One Orientation (CC Line Problem?)
            by rounin
            Hi everyone,

            I'm working on a MacBook Air 2020 (A2337, board 820-02016) and running into a strange USB-C issue. I've gone through quite a bit of testing and part replacement, but I'm stuck — hoping someone here can shed some light.

            🛠 Original Issue
            The machine initially wouldn't negotiate 20V over USB-C — stuck at 5V.
            Diagnosis showed PP1V5_UPC0_LDO_CORE shorted to ground.

            I replaced U3100 (UF400) using a donor board (A2179), and the machine powers on fine now.

            MacBook Air A2337 (820-02016) - 5V, won't turn on - please help me understand why
            by mkdj
            Hello everyone,

            About me, my goal and the equipment I (don't) have:
            I am brand new to this forum, and I am eager to learn about repairing laptops. I have an engineer background although I haven't done electronics for a while. I have watched several Youtube videos in the last two months, trying to understand how to diagnose a faulty motherboard. I have a USB-C Amp meter and a classic multi meter. No DC Power Supply to inject voltage, no soldering iron to replace components.

            About my issue and my goal:
            A friend of mine has a MacBook Air M1 A2337 that does not...

            Apple Macbook Air M1 A2337 Trackpad problem
            by Skrndelj
            Hello all,

            I am repairing a Macbook A2337 and i have a problem
            The Macbook is stuck in restore as someone before me tried a DFU restore and bricked the device, now i can't do a restore as AC2 throws error 1 which is related to the trackpad.
            When i turn on the device i get the trackpad click for a few moments and then nothing, i tried 7 trackpads and 7 trackpad flats, i know all 7 are functioning okay, especially one as i use it for testing and DFU restore.
            I inspected the whole board and everything seems fine.
            Can anyone help me as i didn't fiddle with trackpad...

            Macbook Air A2337 dead at 5V/0,00A
            by Patrick501
            Hey,
            I'm working on a MacBook Air M1. I'm pretty sure the U8100 is not working correctly. But I never had to change it before, so I wanna ask anyone of you guys to confirm (or not confirm) my thoughts on it.

            USB Tester: 5V / 0,00A
            PPBUS_AON: 12,3 V
            PP5v_S2: 0 V no short
            PP3v3_S2_UPC: 0 V no short
            PP1v25_S2: 0 V no short
            PPDCIN_AON_CHGR_R: 5 V
            no enable signals for the S2 rails by the U8100


            both CR3217 (UF400, UF500), are supplied by 5V (Fuses FF200 and FF201)
            PP3v3_UPC0_LDO: 0 V, 0,5V diode mode to gnd
            PP1v5_UPC0_LDO_CORE:...
