Hello Guys.
I just got this Mac from a customer. Mac was dead. Tried Apple Configurator cause was showing 5v at the USB ports, and it was in DFU. Revived the system and booted ok. Was working fine for a couple days then Keyboard stopped working and Touch Bar as well... both together. When rebooted, FAN start spinning fast... logged in using USB keyboard and checking Activity monitor shows kernel task going crazy... that happens for a couple of minutes while fans are screaming. After a couple minutes everything works "fine" except that keyboard and touch bar are gone. Checked the board and found that C3200 was bent. Removed and one of the pads were gone. Ground pad was OK but the other pad missing, so I used a wire to create a jumper with C3100, but I still have no keyboard and Touch Bar.
No Corrosion on the board, nothing looks bad at all. No water marks activated.
Suggestions?
Thank you guys!
