    So i got further now. I sucessfully removed the Icloud Lock from the Macbook. Now it is Installed new. But Everything works but also no Screen wich is no surprise because the Rail is down. What i noticed is that the Battery now is Charging and also having 100% Health. But. It does not boot without a plugged Charger. Is the Problem because it says, no screen no boot?!

    Greetings Tom

        Test with an external display using an usb to hdmi dongle. Do you have video?

            Yes Having normal Display. What i recognized is following.

            Battery Charges normal and Macbook runs on Battery. If i power down with Charger and then Open Display or pushing any Button. Macbook starts. If i power down and let it completley shut off then disconnect Charger and hit a Button or open the Display. Macbook Starts with Battery.

            When i let it Sit a while without Charger it does not Start. So The Battery is present but is somehow not connected to the Mainrail to fire it up. And also Screen is no backlight. But rest of the Macbook is working normal.

                a2338 2020 Macbook Pro liquid damaged won't turn on- weird issue
                by bigbadbios
                Hi,
                I am trying to fix this liquid damaged 2020 Macbook pro and I noticed something weird.
                When I push on/around the renesas 501cr0b IC, which appears to be a clock generator/ multiplier, If I apply lot of pressure, the device will reach 19.9 volts and seems to be trying to work.
                I have thoroughly reflowed that area and completely removed that chip (there was some liquid stain in that area) but no help. I have just 5v 0a unless I apply the pressure.
                Your help is GREATLY appreciated. Thanks!

                Greetings to the entire forum, I ask you for help because I'm going crazy. A dear friend of mine gave me a macbook pro M1 A2338 that only works with an external screen. With the internal one, no backlight or image. Only the external display is detected from the system settings.
                First I changed the display flat, then I made a backup with time machine and tried a reset in dfu but nothing to do, always the same problem.
                I analyzed the logic board, it shows no sign of liquid or visible damage. I then moved on to examine the logic with the thermal camera and found that the UP701 chip was...

                A2338 MACBOOK PRO NO POWER
                by madjid911
                Hello, can you help me solve this problem: I have a macbook pro A2338 which does not start, motherboard 829-02773-A, no oxidation, the usbc is stuck at 5v it does not trigger the 20v, here are the measurements:

                PPBUS_AON varied 11V70 12V5
                PPVBUS_USBC1 5V
                PP5V_S2_UPC 0V (1mégaohms)
                PP3V3_UPC1_LD0 3V45
                PP1V5_UPCA_LDO_CORE 1V5

                PP3V3_S2 0V
                PP1V8_AON 0V
                PP3V8_AON 0V 1ohm short

                I injected 2v I have 5a but I can't find any heating on the motherboard, I tried in several places of the short but still the same.

                Do you...

                MacBook Pro M2 A2338 with PowerSupply it is running, "X" on the battery symbol and FAN is running permanently
                by Schluchti45
                I have a MacBook Pro A2338 M2. The MacBook runs with the power supply unit. The fan runs permanently and the battery shows the message “Service recommended”.
                I have already replaced the battery with a new one, but this has not helped. I have also tried DFU and the system restored the error remains the same.
                Do any of you have any ideas where I could look or how I should proceed here?...
