    Apple MacBook Pro Logic Board 820-2936-B

    Hi, Working on a Apple MacBook Pro Logic Board 820-2936-B. Symptoms was it turns on, fan spins & then shuts off ater a minute, after a second it turns on again & then off again after 1 min & this happens till the Magsafe power is attached. After a microscopic inspection, I saw liquid spill & Corrosion on Q3210. I replaced with another one & checked the circuits were all intact & did a cleaning on the nearby components. But the problem presists. Now I noticed when I remove both the memory chips all voltages are back & the fan spin is good & does not shut on & off. As soon as the memory is installed in either slot, logic board goes on & off status same as before. Can anyone help me from where to start troubleshooting. Thanks

    I’m facing such issue on the windows laptop, it does the same issue, without ram installed it doesn’t shut down but as soon as i put the ram it turns on and quickly shuts down

      Have you checked for shorts to ground on all power supplies?

        Tried PRAM reset?
        Does it chime?
        Does it have image?
        If you plug in a USB drive does its activity LED blink?

          Tried PRAM reset? Done... Does not turn on for long, but still I held on the 4 keys, nothing happens
          Does it chime? No Chime at all... fan moves for a while & then shuts down. I measured that 5V rail just disappears but 3.3v railis always present, automatically the 5v rail turns on again & then shuts down again
          Does it have image? No image at all
          If you plug in a USB drive does its activity LED blink? USB plugged in but nothing happens
          I do not see any shorts to ground. But all the BGA chip are getting hot. Where can the problem be... Just wondering...
