    A2179 Macbook Air turns ON and works normally with a battery but it is not charging

    I have similar a similar issue. My A2179 Macbook Air turns ON and works normally with a battery but it is not charging. With the USC-C alone it takes 20V but only 100mA, PPBUS is 12.3Volts, and wont turn ON.

    I replaced U7000 twice with the same result. not charging!

    Whats should I check or replace?

    A1466 MacBook Air 13" 2017 Backlight issue works but then turns off
    by Stephen
    Hello, got a weird MacBook Air here
    board looks fresh and no water damage, backlight works and turns on and stays on when installing OS etc. However, when the os is installed and when the system files are loaded before the login page the backlight goes out. I have wiped it, NVRAM reset, etc and even took some other instances and this blows my mind, never seen this before. Backlight just turns off once the OS is loaded.

    MacBook Pro 14" M1 Pro Turns on functions then turns off when I plug in USB C cable
    by Stephen
    MacBook Pro 14" M1 Pro Turns on functions then turns off when I plug in USB C cable to reset the computer. I disconnect the battery fully and then reconnect it and it won't turn back on. After letting it sit for a day I plug the battery back up, and the MagSafe 3 cable and it powers on and stays ons, once I plug in a USB C cable into the port closes to the MagSafe port it turns off and the Amber light turns off and won't turn on. No water damage, nothing, I want to do a DFU restore to wipe the computer since the customer stated they did an update and ever since it just decided to not work...

    MacBook A2179 Audio board+Power button boardview & schematic needed
    by Darren Hibbert
    Hi.

    Long shot but does anyone have a schematic & boardview for the audio board+power button on a Macbook A2179?

    There is a shorted cap on mine and I need to know if I can safely remove it or whether I need to replace it and with what capacitor.

    Many thanks. ...
