    MacBook A1707 820-00928-A 20V - No boot

    Hey, got this macbook in and it's a little strange.

    The device (no battery connected) starts at 20V 1.4A, then drops to 0.9a, and then to 0.09a.

    The boot sequence seems to complete, but the CPU goes to 100 degrees celcius within 2 seconds, and you can hear a current-like sound coming from it. UB000 and U8605 get hot as well, but no more than 50 degrees celcius. U1100 spikes to 70 degrees celcius as well.

    PPVCC_S0_CPU measures around 1V.

    I'm tempted to say the CPU is toast, but seems so strange since there is no liquid damage or anything. The only weird this is that I found some metal flakes next to the CPU, but I'm assuming these are from the screw hole from the heatsink, altho the other spots don't have this. Included a picture of this.

    Anything I could check to make sure?

      MacBook Pro A1707 Won’t Boot – No Display, Fans Spin Briefly
      by Herby94
      Hi everyone,
      I’m currently having an issue with my MacBook Pro (A1707). It doesn’t power on or make any sounds.
      • The charger is a generic third-party unit that had a loose connection at the AC input (127VAC). I fixed it, and now it delivers 20VDC to the laptop.
      • When connected, the fans spin for about 30 seconds before shutting off.
      • No display, no audio, and no signs of life during this time.

      Any ideas? Could this be a logic board issue, or is the charger still a problem? Thanks in advance!...

      Hi everyone
      Please bear with me as I am not yet a pro with some of these issues. Trying to watch a lot of youtube videos and master myself but there are things which I cannot fix and would like to ask for a help from the pro people.

      MacBook Pro 15-Inch | Mid 2017 | A1707 | 820-00928-A | 3,1 GHz i7, Radeon Pro 560, 16GB, 1TB | Boardview and Schematics
      by CG_Dionysos
      Hello,

      I am looking for the boardview file and the matching schematics (PDF) for the following MacBook Pro:
      • Model: A1707
      • 15-inch, Mid 2017
      • 3.1 GHz Core i7
      • 16 GB RAM
      • Radeon Pro 560
      • 1 TB SSD
      • Board number: 820-00928-A
      I already searched the forum, but so far I haven’t found a matching boardview for this board. In several posts I came across, it was also mentioned that the uploaded files were often incorrect.

      Thanks in advance!

      Greetings from Germany...

      MacBook A1707 820-00281 Boot Loop
      by Strolch
      I opened my good MacBook A1707 2017 to take measurements. I measured pin 43 and 1 yesterday to compare with my defective A1707 ;-( now the MacBook doesn't start either. The gong only comes on every 5 seconds! It's in a boot loop. At the beginning, the apple came up too the display. But now only gong every 5 seconds! All my data are on the Mac. Shit

      [Macbook pro A1708] [Boot loop] [Trackpad ?]
      by No Lan
      Hey everyone,

      Usually, I'm not the type to ask for help, but this time, I'm calling on your wisdom and expertise I've seen what this community can do, so I'm pretty sure you guys can help me out.

      Here's the deal: I noticed my MacBook got stuck in a boot loop. After opening it up and doing some initial troubleshooting, I found that the boot loop stops only when the trackpad is unplugged.

      Now, just so you know, the trackpad actually works — I tested it with another motherboard and it's all good. Same for the cable, no issues there. The problem is only...
