    Wow. Never seen that before. Try a DFU.

        Macbook A2442 no display board 820-02098
        by dbuergi
        Hi all,

        i got a Macbook A2442 which statrts normal but is not showing any picture. Using an external monitor works fine. After opening the Macbook i found a dried up line of liquid damage around CN979, RD503, and UP730. I cleaned up everything and also unsoldered the chips to clean the pads. There were no shorts before but i still don't have any picture. Sometimes you can see a glimpse of light in the middle of the display.
        So before i change the whole display i want to make sure that it's not any issue with the logicboard. So any ideas what i can check next?...

        Macbook Pro 2019 16" A2141 820-01700 stuk in DFU mode
        by rathore4u
        Hi all,

        I am trying to fix a T2 Macbook A2141 820-01700 board that's stuck in DFU mode.

        The SSDs have correct voltages

        PP2V5_NAND_SSD0 = 2.5V
        PP2V5_NAND_SSD1 = 2.5V

        PP0V9_SSD0 and PP0V9_SSD 1 = 0.9V

        PP1V8_SSD0 and PP1V8_SSD1 = 1.8V

        I can force the laptop to DFU mode using the SOC_FORCE_DFU using SWK003. Apple Configurator 2 tries to restore the Mac but it fails back to RECOVERY.

        Looking at the diagram here - https://repair.wiki/w/Apple_T2_platform Step 6, it says the problem could be loading from SSD,...

        Macbook Pro A2442 820-02098 No image but has backlight
        by Constantinos
        Hi all
        I have a Macbook Pro A2442 with the 820-02098 from a friend which has no picture on the display, however, the backlight works.
        He was streaming a football match on a questionable site, then the site crashed, and the problem emerged.
        Initially, he sent it to apple, who quoted him £1323.95 to replace the display, lid angle sensor and top case.
        Obviously, he decided against this and gave it to me so that I could have a crack at it.
        From initial diagnostics, I connected to an external monitor, I first tried with a HP 22W monitor, and I booted into the boot menu...

        KB and Trackpad only work in safe mode - 820-4924-A Macbook Pro Late 2015 A1502
        by duwane
        Hi all. I hope someone has come across something similar, as I am baffled.

        I have a faulty logic board from a 2015 A1502 Macbook Pro Retina (820-4924-A). Some signs of liquid, but all corrosion cleaned, and several components refloated or replaced to eliminate any visually corroded areas of the board.

        Machine boots fine now, but the keyboard and trackpad do not work at all when booting normally into Catalina, Big Sur, or Monterey. At the login screen, the cursor does not move at all when moving on the trackpad, and no keys on the keyboard respond on screen, however...

        MacBook A2442 exclamation mark after oxydation
        by Enzo150i
        Hi all,
        I have a MacBook Pro A2442 with board 820-02098-A very highly oxydated (water) by an accident.
        The customer just need to recover the data (no backups, heh), so we cleaned fully to make it power on.
        Fortunately the Mac is still alive but it shows an exclamation mark in a circle (!) (Apple T2 fw issue?) with the text "support.apple.com/mac/restore" and doesn't go further.

        We tried to interface with another Mac, but can't get in DFU. Very likely the keyboard is gone too because the water, so we're planning to buy a cheap compatible one just to....
