This is a guide that I am writing for helping others to replace their MEC1503 EC chip if it breaks (or to get around an inconvenient prompt to the BIOS). This forum has been extremely helpful to me so I would like to contribute to help others. I will tell you right now that this task is very difficult to do.

Hi ya folks,
I have this MacBook Pro A2485 (M1 Pro 2021) which came in for repair.
It had a shorted SSD power supply chip. Therefore it was stuck at 5V.
I replaced it and the SSD are fine. No more shorts.
But The mac still pulls 5V and 200mA. If i leave it alone for 5 mins, the mac manages to receive 20V and 40mA. Of course, which doesnt mean the mac starts after power meter reading 20V.
But while the mac is stuck at 5V, i checked the board with thermal and found this chip was trying to start. Chip picture is attached.

When replacing the screen of this MacBook model, the DP855A chip must be moved from the existing screen for the screen to operate properly.
However, when I removed the DP855A chip from the existing screen, I must have done something wrong and the chip broke.
Testing the chip pins with a multimeter revealed a short circuit inside the chip.
Is it impossible to repair this? I couldn't find a programmer for this chip, nor any eeprom programmer software....04-19-2024, 08:51 PM -

Hi,
I have a2338 MacBook with one bad CD3217 chip. Are there any compatible chips on aliexpress that actually work? Or only chip from same motherboard can be used?
I remember buying one CD3215 for older 15" model on aliexpress and that one worked.
Thanks!
