    MacBook Pro M4 16" A3403 on the table with water damage

    Hi guys,
    I have a MacBook Pro M4 16" A3403 on the table with water damage. I allready found the problem within a bad cap. As far as my researh went, I couldn't find the schematics and boardview for this MacBook model. They seem not to be released now. So my question is if anybody has a working A3403 on the table and could tell me, which specification this capasator has?
    I attached a photo of the missing cap. It's on the bottom side of the logicbard.

    I am very thankful for your replys.
    Thanks in advanced and best regards from Hamburg GermanyClick image for larger version Name: PXL_20250713_170230177.jpg Views: 67 Size: 1.96 MB ID: 3681457

      Macbook A1466 820-00165A heavy water damage but working with "flashing" screen
      by dbuergi
      Hi all,

      i got a A1466 with serious water damage. I was able to clean the whole board and only found a fuse with a coroded trace. Cleaning and resoldering did the job and the macbook started normal but after some time the screen began "flashing" like turning on and off while the Macbook was still running. I checked the board again but was not able to find the problem until now.
      Any ideas where to look?...

      Macbook A1708 with water damage and problems after removing U2800
      by dbuergi
      Hi all,

      i got a A1708 with water damage. I cleaned everything and the board started normal. But the next day i got 20v but no booting. Thermal cam showed over 160c (never had a chip getting this burning hot before) in U2800 and some shorts on the caps around it. After removal shortages were gone and i installed a donor U2800 which worked before.
      Sadly now the device stays at 5v, 0,4a and 1,9w and i don't find the problem.USB ports worked fine before....

      Macbook Pro (820-2773) 20 ohm partial short on the pp3v8 power rail after water damage
      by TheNuclearOption
      water damage to the left speaker channel circuit caused an internal board short that has been carved out and damage to various capacitors. I removed both chips ur630 and ur600 both were burnt. Im not sure how to track down this partial short. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

      The fuse is blown on ppbus and im getting 12.24v to the ppvbatt side of the fuse

      Macbook a2251 Water damage- stuck on Logo
      by Runnerboys
      Hi all,

      Would appreciate your input, we have fixed a water damage motherboard for the a2251, there was mainly corrosion next to the 2 locations, but were able to clean it all

      First few times- the Macbook would boot and got to login screen (didn't try to login), day after, when we tested it - it would get stuck on the logo and won't show welcome screen

      What would be the best step to take from here to test? should I test Mobo components/ chip / storage? and if so- where do I start?

      OR should I try to use the Apple Configurator and connect...
