    MacBook A2338 (820-02773-005) 5V/0A

    Hi, have a MacBook here that has had severe waterdamage. I'm the third person working on it as far as I got the story straight, so no high hopes to begin with.

    The device is taking 5V/0A, so the first thing I've checked is PPBUS_AON, it's floating around 1V. I measured at fuse F5200, took the fuse off to make sure it wasn't being dragged down by something else, but stays around 1V.

    I'm assuming it's the ISL9240 (U5200) not working properly. I see work done around there, and leftover corrosion. Should I just go ahead and order these, or am I skipping a step here?

    On a side note, I'm looking for correct replacement resistor for R5220 but I can't seem to find them. It was taken off for some reason, and I've now put another resistor (0402 size, 0 Ohm) there temporarily. If anyone knows where to get them that would be great.

    Resistor = 0306 SMD size; 10 milli-ohms

    https://www.digikey.com/en/products/...F-T50/16735397

    1) Remove all power. Meter in resistance mode.

    2) Measure the resistance across the dual mosfet pins of Q5230.

    source & drain
    source & gate
    gate & drain

    You will have to review the pin #s to measure as per the schematic.

      Hey mon! Thanx for the resistor link.

      I wanted to measure the Q5230, but it's a little unclear how.

      Pin 2,3 and 4 are drain, pin 1 and 8 are gate 1 and 2, but where do I measure the source? On the schematic I see it passes XW5230, but is that the testpoint right below the mosfet? I included a picture.

        Lost Diode/Resistor RP802 MacBook Pro 2020 A2338 HELP
        by XxMicroSoldering
        Hello Guys. Yesterday I was repairing a MacBook with no backlight. I noticed the resistor/diode RP802 is bad so I took it off. I also had a faulty motherboard that can't be repaired that had that resistor/diode on it (RP802). So it took the good RP802 off the faulty board. And when I had it on my tweezers it accidentally flew away. And now I don't know what to do. I 100% can't find it because of how small it is. Do you guys know any other diode/resistor that can work as the RP802


        I'm a newbie to microsoldering and I'm still learning. All help is really appreciated

        Macbook Pro M1 A2338 13"

        Hi all,

        I’m new to the forum and could use a bit of help. My name is Tom and I have a problem 😅

        I bought a MacBook Pro M1 and also got a second one for spare parts. The seller told me it had a small water spill. After opening it, I found four spots with corrosion on the board.

        One of those spots has damaged components — I’m not sure if they’re capacitors or other SMD parts. I’ve already cleaned the whole board with isopropanol, which made the other areas look fine. But could those damaged caps be the reason why the MacBook won’t power on?...

        Greetings to the entire forum, I ask you for help because I'm going crazy. A dear friend of mine gave me a macbook pro M1 A2338 that only works with an external screen. With the internal one, no backlight or image. Only the external display is detected from the system settings.
        First I changed the display flat, then I made a backup with time machine and tried a reset in dfu but nothing to do, always the same problem.
        I analyzed the logic board, it shows no sign of liquid or visible damage. I then moved on to examine the logic with the thermal camera and found that the UP701 chip was...

        MacBook Pro A2338 [820-02773] No Audio (Speakers and Microphone)
        by classicandy
        Hi Everyone,

        Please, I have a MacBook Pro A2338 M2, board number : 820-02773. The speakers and the microphone of the Mac are not working and I need assistance in fixing.

        UR730 got damaged and short-circuited the motherboard. After removing the shortened IC; before and after putting the new one I ordered, the speakers [specifically the other one not affected by this IC] and the microphone are still not working. I do have sound through a Bluetooth speaker device or when I connect a headphone with microphone to the jack 3.5mm input. Also, media files do not play unless ​a...
