    Macbook 820-3115 b need urgent help - keyboad & trackpad issue

    I can t remember what was the original problem with this board, but i assume it wasn't powering on...
    Once i got it working, passed asd test but left option shift and fn wasn't working so i replaced u5750.
    It worked like a charm for 2 days the suddenly no keyboad or trackpad and fan on high speed.
    I changed Q7800 as the output was 1.7v instead of 3.3v...
    Again it worked for 1-2 days without problems, then q7800 died again.....
    Replaced and worked fine untill today (1-2 weeks) when the custommer said no keyboad and trackpad AGAIN!!!
    I assume is q7800 is dead again...
    Any ideea what can cause this filthy failure?

    Thanks a million!!!

          What is the resistance to ground on PP3V3_S4? If Q7800 dies, it's probably due to something pulling too much current on its output… Maybe a half-dead touchpad? Or Airport card?

              I have no ideea what causes this problem or which is the resistance to ground on p03ve_s4 as i sent back the laptop to it's owner.
              I have replaced q7800 and replaced trackpad and wifi/bt card.
              Custommer told me sometimes when you power on laptop trackpad was not working for 1-2 minutes, and machine was trying to search for a bt mouse. He had to disable bluetooth in order to avoid this situation.
              I think(hope) it was a faulty trackpad...
              I'll get back to this thread if the problem occurs again.

              Thank you piernov!

                      Uh...
                      No idea, maybe? PP3V3_S4 goes to the keyboard connector too apparently.

                          ... i will change keyboard but it's improbable to fix this issue...
                          I am thinking to replace keyboard controller too, if keyboard doesn't fix it

                              MacBook Pro M4 Pro - no keyboard / trackpad / lid sensor
                              by mitchw
                              Hello
                              I got this MacBook Pro M4 Pro to have a look at.
                              It was tiny bit liquid damaged, just the edge of the board got 1 small 10x10 mm area wet. I've seen much worse that still worked fine to be honest.
                              Since it was liquid damaged, warranty does not apply anymore.

                              Anyways it was checked at an local Apple Store and they discovered that it needs new trackpad, new top case, etc. Also it needed a new lid angle sensor which they replaced.
                              The main issue was that the screen remained black.

                              Anyways I cleaned the liquid damaged area, put the machine back...

                              [Macbook pro A1708] [Boot loop] [Trackpad ?]
                              by No Lan
                              Hey everyone,

                              Usually, I'm not the type to ask for help, but this time, I'm calling on your wisdom and expertise I've seen what this community can do, so I'm pretty sure you guys can help me out.

                              Here's the deal: I noticed my MacBook got stuck in a boot loop. After opening it up and doing some initial troubleshooting, I found that the boot loop stops only when the trackpad is unplugged.

                              Now, just so you know, the trackpad actually works — I tested it with another motherboard and it's all good. Same for the cable, no issues there. The problem is only...

                              Apple Macbook Air M1 A2337 Trackpad problem
                              by Skrndelj
                              Hello all,

                              I am repairing a Macbook A2337 and i have a problem
                              The Macbook is stuck in restore as someone before me tried a DFU restore and bricked the device, now i can't do a restore as AC2 throws error 1 which is related to the trackpad.
                              When i turn on the device i get the trackpad click for a few moments and then nothing, i tried 7 trackpads and 7 trackpad flats, i know all 7 are functioning okay, especially one as i use it for testing and DFU restore.
                              I inspected the whole board and everything seems fine.
                              Can anyone help me as i didn't fiddle with trackpad...

                              MacBook Air M2 A2681 no Trackpad
                              by rynr
                              Hello,
                              I have been following the posts in the forum for some time now and have learned a lot. I would first like to thank you for this and hope that it will continue for a long time.

                              I received the MacBook in DFU. The recovery always failed with error 1. After some search, I was able to find a defective inductor (LT202).
                              After replacing the component, I was able to successfully complete the DFU restore. Unfortunately, the trackpad and keyboard where still without function.

                              So i measured all voltages and diodereadings on the JT400 connector. ...

                              Hi,

                              I hope this is the correct place to post about this device. I originally posted regarding this on iFixit so see the details from that post below:

                              "I'm hoping someone can give their opinion on the symptoms I'm seeing before I spend any more time and put money into this. I got this MacBook from a customer and after looking at it they decided they didn't want it.

                              It doesn't turn on and there's no visual signs of life. I have tried resetting the NVRAM, SMC, power cycling, unplugging the battery, using the charger with the battery unplugged. Removed the...
