    Apple MBP 13" 2011 820-2936 - Beeps - Memory and socket ok

    Now before I go further with this one: https://www.badcaps.net/forum/showthread.php?t=85147 I just got one with quick a simple issue.

    A MacBook Pro with a Memory issue. Sometimes it just beeps 3 times, sometimes its boots and crashes beeping and distorting video output. So first thought defective memory, so i replaced it with know working one, same issue. So i thought bad memory socket, so I just installed one module in each socket separately, same issue.

    Now i noticed when pushing the Logicboard on certain spots, it just crashes, so it must be a bad connection on the LB somewhere. I just took a look at the brd file of the board, but the Memory got 210 connections on the LB.

    I already resoldered the U7300, it is around this area somewhere. Could be on the other side.

    What could it be? How to find the lose connection?

    You can check that you indeed get stable 1.5V and 0.75V on the RAM, but I'd say both RAM slots are probably bad (or rather broken solder joints/pads). Pretty rare but can happen. You can at least inspect the visible solder joints of the RAM slots under the microscope to get an idea.
    Could also be the CPU.

      I already checked the visible solder points, as far as i could see, they look good.

        I doubt both ram-sockets are bad. While installed in the top socket, i can wobble the module without any problem. But when pressing on the Logicboard the machine crashes. I had a look on all connected parts and pressed alls those, but they seem all alright. So i think it could be the CPU. I will try to reflow the CPU.

          So, update. I reflowed the CPU and i was able to work on it for 2 hours. I'll test the machine for some more days.

            Apple Watch Charging Controller Schematics / Boardview - 820-02601
            by a_p3rson
            Hi there,

            I'm looking for anyone who might have information on Apple's embedded Apple Watch charging daughterboard, ID 820-02601. This is currently used by Anker in their Apple Watch charging products, but likely by other Apple partner brands as well.

            You can see the board referenced in ChargerLab's teardown of the Anker Y1811 3-in-1 MagSafe cube - they discuss the "Apple Watch wireless charging circuit" about 2/3rds down the page. It's not pictured, but the board ID reads 820-02601-A, which sure sounds like Apple.
            This daughterboard uses an interesting...

            I'm hoping to find "Apple MacBook Pro 15" 2011 - A1286 (820- 2563) - Board View And Schematics"

            I have a dead one in front of me that was previously repaired I'm trying to revive it.

            Thanks,

            Apple A1990 / Board number: 820-01041
            by RWS93
            Brand: Apple
            Model: A1990
            Board number: 820-01041


            Problem: I am not an Apple kind of guy to start with. But I am quite experienced with motherboard repairs in general. So the laptop is stuck with 5v 0.250A and does not negotiate 20v. Same symptom on all 4 USB C ports. When charger is plugged the amps start at around 0.060 then go trough: 0.100 - 0.180 - 0.230 - 0.244 and stay like this. Laptop responds to the power button: once I hold it long enough current goes down to 0.060A and then up to previous levels.

            Board clean, no liquid damage, no corrosion....
