    A2251 Water Damage

    Hey all. Have an issue with a liquid damaged A2251. Won't power on but draws 5v and cycling from 0 to 0.24A. Followed all the steps that are stated here https://repair. wiki/w/A2251_2020_13%22_MacBook_Pro (except for checking whether the laptop is in DFU mode) to troubleshoot the issue and all readings seem to be in the normal range with the laptop connected to a power supply through a universal MacBook connector set to 12V.
    Peripheral components around CD3217 seem to be short-free.

    Any idea where to look next? Any info is greatly appreciated!

    P.S. I want to save all the data that is currently stored on the laptop. Will the revive option of the Apple Configurator delete any of the data? Thanks again

      Macbook a2251 Water damage- stuck on Logo
      by Runnerboys
      Hi all,

      Would appreciate your input, we have fixed a water damage motherboard for the a2251, there was mainly corrosion next to the 2 locations, but were able to clean it all

      First few times- the Macbook would boot and got to login screen (didn't try to login), day after, when we tested it - it would get stuck on the logo and won't show welcome screen

      What would be the best step to take from here to test? should I test Mobo components/ chip / storage? and if so- where do I start?

      OR should I try to use the Apple Configurator and connect...

      Stagg sms12p audio amp has water damage
      by edugimeno
      Hi! My friend just brought this audio amplifier/speaker fro his music band saying they realized its got no sound. Led powers up but there no sound at all
      I opened it and found 3 board. 2 of them are for input plugs and potentiometers, and the other larger board has the amplifiers for 2 large speakers that it drives
      There's also a large toroid transformer that feeds a lower voltage to the first 2 boards and a larger voltaje (36x2 rectified close to 100v) to the power board. The power board has the plugs for both speakers
      There is only one signal wire connecting the first boards...

      Lenovo IdeaPad 3 15IAU7 that suffered water damage
      by Joel Ohana
      Hi,

      I have a Lenovo IdeaPad 3 15IAU7 that suffered water damage. It doesn't turn on (white power light flashes when on button pressed), and the amber light flashes when plugged in.

      Symptoms:
      • Short detected – sparks appear when touching the charging port connection with board with a metal (even a multimeter probe).
      • Visible damage – after cleaning corrosion, I found 4 possibly burnt memory chips near PC3165, labeled UD5, UD6, UD7, and UD8.

      What are my next steps to diagnose and possibly repair it without replacing the entire board? Any guidance would be greatly...

      A2141 820-01700 Water Damage L8504 Damaged, U3100/U3200 power cycles UB300/UB400 5V .25A
      by abajor
      Like title says A2141 came in with Water Damage, customer desperately wants the data.

      The actual water ingress doesn't appear too bad it sat for a day but was very dusty internally. I have no idea why L8504 was arced there is no apparent moisture there or around the LVDS cable; however, the LVDS to screen screw studs had popped off at some point and somebody tried securing it with kapton tape.

      I had to create a micron wire pad jumper to reconnect the south side of the L8504 since the primary pad was blasted down to the vias.

      That said after cleaning up the...
