    820-02020-A Macbook Pro M1 bootlooping

    Hello,

    I managed to repair a liquid damaged 820-02020 board. There were two shorted capacitors.

    However, the laptop is stuck in boot looping. Everything is connected correctly (battery, trackpad...)

    I cannot even get to the boot option selection screen by holding the power button.

    I cannot get into DFU mode neither.

    I managed to get to the login screen once, but I can't get to it anymore.

    Here is a video of the amp meter:

    Any idea?

    Thank you!

      2020 MacBook Pro M1 bootlooping after repair.
      by Gueric
      Basically, this never opened before MacBook Pro had some liquid damage around a few keyboard backlight components, that I replaced. Turns out it wasn’t the actual issue, the actual issue was a defective CD3217.

      Removed it, replaced it. Laptop booted fine, I erased it, installed a new macOS version, checked battery health, speakers, screen etc. Turned it off to put everything back together, turned it on again, and it started bootlooping.

      Chime, shows apple logo, then a progress bar, and when it fills at about 1%, reboots. Back to the Apple logo, progess bar almost empty,...

      MacBook Pro 2018 with Activation Lock
      by envym
      Hi everyone!

      I have a 2018 MacBook Pro (with Sequoia OS) that I've been using for years with no problem. I recently received an M2 MacBook Pro so I'm mostly using it and not the 2018 one, but since a friend of mine needs a computer, I thought I could restore my 2018 and give it brand-new-like to my friend.

      I tried using the built-in tool to restore the MacBook (Settings > General > Transfer or restore > Delete) but it got stuck when trying to remove the Find Device configuration (it asked me for the password for my old Apple ID -now I use the same account but...

      General question about MacBook power rails for repair.
      by SarcasticOP
      I am looking at an A2337 and found this for the order of power rails and what they do. Can this be confirmed before I dive into hunting down power rails that do not exist or are not neccisary?
      • PPBUS_G3H (12.6V-12.8V)
        • This is the main power rail that supplies power to the entire system. Check this rail first, as it must be present for other power rails to work.
      • PP3V42_G3H (3.42V)
        • This power rail is derived from PPBUS_G3H and is used to power the SMC (System Management Controller) and other essential circuits. It should be present if PPBUS_G3H is working correctly.
      • PPVRTC_G3H (3.3V)
        • This

      by obelix24
      I’m working on one macbook air 15” m2 that was water damaged.

      keyboard, lcd, microphone connectors were damaged so i’ve replaced all of them and without screen connected macbook worked fine. Keyboard &trackpad and also lid sensor was working fine.

      i’ve put macbook in shelf and order new screen so i can fully repair it.

      Now i got the screen and macbook stays at 5v 0a.

      i’ve tried if it’s not in DFU with another macbook but it’s not detected at all.
