    Macbook Pro 2015 A1502 - No backlight / fuse location?

    Hi guys, backlight on macbook pro early 2015 (A1502) is not working. Mac still works can see display when shinning a torch on display or using external display.

    I've been told to test the backlight fuse but cant seem to find it anywhere on the front side of the board?

    Can anyone help with the location of the fuse or is it on the reverse side of the board (meaning i would have to take the board out?)

    You shouldn't have to disassemble the card, the fuse is on the visible side

      Macbook Pro 2015 A1502 SSD apparently died
      by backes
      Hello,

      My macbook pro froze, and now I get the folder with question mark symbol. In the recovery mode the SSD can't be found in the disk utils. I then used a Linux USB stick to try to mount the SSD and it wasn't present in `lsblk` . Which led me to the conclusion that the SSD itself is broken. I then gave it to apple support and they say that the SSD is dead and wanted to replace it for around 400€. I declined this "repair".

      Then I bought a new SSD from amazon for 70€, however also this one doesn't work and can't be found in disk utils in the recovery...

      KB and Trackpad only work in safe mode - 820-4924-A Macbook Pro Late 2015 A1502
      by duwane
      Hi all. I hope someone has come across something similar, as I am baffled.

      I have a faulty logic board from a 2015 A1502 Macbook Pro Retina (820-4924-A). Some signs of liquid, but all corrosion cleaned, and several components refloated or replaced to eliminate any visually corroded areas of the board.

      Machine boots fine now, but the keyboard and trackpad do not work at all when booting normally into Catalina, Big Sur, or Monterey. At the login screen, the cursor does not move at all when moving on the trackpad, and no keys on the keyboard respond on screen, however...

      Macbook Pro mid 2015 battery required to boot?
      by twonk9098
      I have read many forums that state the Macbook Pro 2015 needs / does not need a battery to boot. I'm not convinced as yet which is correct.
      The Macbook Pro mid 2015 I have has no battery and do not really want to buy one just to test.
      This model has the newer trackpad which is not clickable when turned off.
      At the moment, without battery it does turn on with no display (with backlight), no chime and then turns off after 13 seconds. I see this from the power draw on my DTPS.
      If I hold the power button whilst connecting the magsafe 2 charger it turns on, again no image but...
