        Re: Macbook pro A1278 green light but no power

        Hey all, just want to say thanks dycc I fixed my machine!!
        It was a corroded via for PPVRTC_G3H that made U1800 (Cougar) put the machine in sleep mode.


        I'll be posting an in depth video for the repair later on to help others. Couldn't have done it without the boardview included in this thread so Thank You!! If anyone knows a source for more of these board views of Apple machines I'd love to know too

                MacBook Pro (A1502 / 820-3476-A) - No orange/green light and no power
                by techrepairheide
                Hello again,

                got an MacBook Pro from 2015, model A1502 and motherboard version 820-3476-A.

                Device died over night on charger.

                Currently I did the follow things:

                1. Checked visuell the board, test with another MagSafe-Charger and with another DC-IN-board too
                2. Measured 16,5V on ​PP18V5_DCIN_FUSE but 0V on ADAPTER_SENSE and 0V on PP_3V42_G3H and 0V on PPBUS_G3H but 16,5V goes to U7090
                3. Because of corrosion and bad resistor values I changed these components: U7090 / C7094 / C7095 / R7095 / R7096 / L7095 / C7099 -> But further...

                MacBook pro A1278 (820-3115-B) green light no power on
                by franjr
                Hi, I have a MacBook pro A1278 (820-3115-B) that has green light on the charger and does not turn on, the fan does not spin.
                The voltages in the SMC seem correct. I have made voltages measurements on the main coils and I put their measurements here:
                L7220..........3.3V
                L7260...........5.12V
                L7330..........1.5V
                L7030..........12.67V
                L3895..........2.5V
                L7760..........1.80V
                L9701..........0V

                In the following coils they give me continuity with ground, which seems strange to me:

                L7550,L7510,L7520........ 0V

                General question about MacBook power rails for repair.
                by SarcasticOP
                I am looking at an A2337 and found this for the order of power rails and what they do. Can this be confirmed before I dive into hunting down power rails that do not exist or are not neccisary?
                • PPBUS_G3H (12.6V-12.8V)
                  • This is the main power rail that supplies power to the entire system. Check this rail first, as it must be present for other power rails to work.
                • PP3V42_G3H (3.42V)
                  • This power rail is derived from PPBUS_G3H and is used to power the SMC (System Management Controller) and other essential circuits. It should be present if PPBUS_G3H is working correctly.
                • PPVRTC_G3H (3.3V)
                  • This

                MacBook Air (2017, A1466, No power/orange-green light on)
                by joeoffice12
                I have a 13 inch MacBook Air 2017 that does not show any life, however, there is activity from the MagSafe light going from green to orange and staying. Normally, this battery works perfectly fine and it can actually charge the battery as if I were to leave it alone it would change to just green, however, this thing does not boot up at all, I was told the computer was at 30% and then it randomly shut off.

                Some voltages:
                PPBUS_G3H - 8.5V
                SMC_PM_G2_EN - 3.42V
                PP3V3_S5 - 3.32V
                PP3V42_G3H - 3.42V
                PPDCIN_G3H - 15.18V
                PP5V_S5 - 5.04V

                Macbook Pro A1502 820-4924-A - No Power/Charging Light
                by JasonC89
                So Ive got a Macbook Pro here with no power or charging light.

                I have taken the board out and did an inspection and found a small bit of water damage on C1267 (PP1V05_S0). Cap fell off as I cleaned the area but I dont think this is responsible for my no power or light issue, and should probably work just fine without it.

                So after watching a few Louis Rossman videos and some post here with similar issues, Ive done a lot of testing and have found the following values of the main lines I think are important:

                PPDCIN_G3H = 16.63V
                PP18V5_DCIN_FUSE = 16.63V...
