Customer came in with a board issue, board looks clean, board turns on, he did a software update and he got the infamous Apple boot loop logo. He took it to Apple and Apple said he needed a new board. They attempted to DFU revive restore etc no luck. The board is stuck on the (!) point. I tried DFU myself and no luck. Nothing, board boots up goes into DFU computer turns on with Apple logo when applying the patch and nothing it gets stuck at halfway point and hangs on. I was wondering if anyone has had any experience with this particular issue. Board isn't liquid damage from what I can tell and the board does turn on. Any ideas?

Update: Found the issue. Put a thermal camera on and the Touch Bar connectors were in the 100+ range. Disconnected them and did a DFU revive and success. Bad TouchBar will not let you DFU revive or restore.sigpic
