    macbook pro a1990 - 820-01041 drawing 5v on usb c port

    Hello

    working on a 820-01041 a1990 macbook pro
    the machine is only drawing 5v on usb c ports, and around 0.24a

    one board measured 5v and 0.00a but later when i connected again it's went to 0.24a

    ppbus is 12.27v-12.29v

    is not recognized on apple configurator on dfu or recovery

    can't seem to find a short anywhere on board but with the power adapter connected (without battery)
    i notice the t2 chip is getting a little hot..

    pp1v8_slps2r present and doesnt seems to be shorted..

    any ideas? how can i confirm wheter t2 is the problem or not?

    thanks!

    Are you drawing an immediate 0.24A on the 5v USB C ? Or does it climb up to this current value?

      hi
      sorry for the late response

      main port is drawing 0.00a 5v for around 10 seconds and than jumps to 0.24-0.25a steady.

      all other 3 ports once connected starting on 0.01 to 0.11 and immediatly to 0.24-0.25a steady. (total around a 1second to get to this amp draw).

        Confirm if you have the following:

        PP3v3_S5
        PP5V_S5

          hi
          seems like those are missing
          PP3v3_S5
          PP5V_S5


          thanks for the link
          but can't find any port that is boot looping
          the only thing that is diffrent between the others is that the main port starts off with 0.00a 5v

          after a few seconds it climbs also to 0.25-24a

          any help would be appreciated..
          thanks..

            Measure the voltage to ground at the battery connector J6951 for:

            SMBUS_3V3_BATT_SCL
            SMBUS_3V3_BATT_SDA


            Post each measurement.

              MacBook Pro Retina 15.4-inch (2018) A1990 820-01041 No charge, no power after letting battery die and not using for a bit
              by megacap
              Hello,

              So I this MacBook Pro Retina 15.4-inch (2018) A1990 laptop that suddenly will not charge or start. It was working fine before. It would charge and was starting up normally from sleep. The only thing abnormal is that it seemed to be getting battery health warnings. Maybe a precursor of what was to come. Let it sit in sleep mode for about a week. Now it seems completely dead. Seems like no power at all. No lights, no fans, no screen, no touchpad clicks. Battery charger, which is apple 87w, doesn't get hot at all when plugged in. Charger will charge an iphone just fine though....

              Hi, I found short on one of 6 black nand (total 1TB).
              i removed all 6 nand ( voltages all ok) and now i want to program with JC P15 but for A1990 2019 there is only 512GB configuration.
              I try A2141 1TB configurazion with TSB4228 but the position on pcb is different ( U9300 and U9400 is no stuff on A1990 but present on A2141 and U8800 and U8900 is no stuff on A2141 but present on A1990 )
              macbook with A2141 configuration run on recovery but don't complete it.​

              Macbook Pro A1990 - Battery not detected after connector torn off
              by silver60618
              Hi Gang, Im working on Macbook Pro A1990, the battery connector was torn off during friend trying to replace battery. I soldered on the connector back, and created traces. The battery does charge (according to amp meter), and does power on battery only. But the signal detect line maybe done incorrectly, and the macbook shows "X" over battery icon, and "Service Recommended" on new battery

              Can somebody point me to which of these connector pins is responsible for battery detect/data line? Pin 4 on schematic had a nub on the trace, im not sure if that is important,...

              MacBook Pro 2018 - A1990 Dead - not charging - only 5V
              by robka
              Hi,

              my MacBook Pro 15" 2018 Touch Bar (A1990) doesn't charge anymore. Board# 820-01041-A

              I'm not experienced in diagnostics, but I want to try to solve the problem with your help, because every local shop charges around 600€ (650 usd). Which is the value of the whole Macbook.

              The Macbook was charging when suddenly the "charging sound" appeared every other second for around 4-5 times.
              After that the Macbook was dead. It isn't charging anymore.

              The USB-C Port where the charger was plugged is burned. Also The Cable and the...
