    No image on Macbook A1278 which is 820-3115

    The laptop turns On and give the chime sound, meaning the CPU is working 100%, but i have no image on the screen.


    U9000 have 3.3v for data line on the input side but 0v on the output, i knew that there was nothing wrong with U9000 since it was not being told to turn on, anyway i reomved the chip with another same one but still no 3.3v

    L9004 has 0v
    L9008 has 3.3v
    L9080 (The double Choke/coil) has ov on one side and 1.8v on the other side
    pin 21 and 22 (PPVOUT_SW_LCDBKLT) has 12v
    pin 8 up to 15 for data we have 0v

    one more thing, the bios chip on pin number 5 and 6 i get no voltages there, literal i have 0v on pin 5 and 6 of the bios

    guys please share your ideas im lost now, i dont have any short to ground on the screen connector

    kindly find attached picture

          Looking for 13" Macbook Pro A1278 mid 2012 820-2565-A Schematics and Board View
          by Rezendes
          Hello, I am looking for any and all files related to the mainboard for 820-2565-A (13" Macbook Pro A1278 mid 2012) schematics/board view.

          I looked through forum search results and google and was unable to find a board view file, I found a pdf of all the schematics but I don't know where the parts physically are on the board as this is my first macbook board level repair attempt.

          The macbook charger has a green light, the battery has been replaced and OS reports Normal status but Not charging. After cleaning a corroded capacitor it crumbled off the board. There...

          MacBook A1278 (3115) No PPBUS_G3H Issue
          by pcbmaniac
          Subject: Help Needed: MacBook A1278 (3115) No PPBUS_G3H Issue

          Hello everyone,

          I'm working on a MacBook A1278 with the 3115 logic board and facing an issue with no PPBUS_G3H voltage. Here's what I've checked so far:
          1. U7000 Measurements:
            • Pin 3 has 0V, even though R7012 shows 16.5V from PPDCIN_S5_CHGR.
          2. Resistors:
            • I measured R7010 and R7011 with one leg disconnected, and both tested OK.

          Based on these findings, I believe U7000 needs to be replaced. However, I have a related question:
          • If I also decide to replace the SMC, do I need to order it pre-programmed,
          ...

          MacBook Pro A2289 (820-01987-A) No boot/image, but boots to DFU
          by baglaivlad
          Hi everyone. Just a reminder I am not a professional repair technician, fixing Apple electronics is my hobby.

          Recently got my hands on MacBook Pro A2289 with interesting behavior. Pristine condition, no water damage, no visual issues whatsoever. It has no image, no CapsLock, no life except the fan is spinning. But it is able to boot into DFU and recognized by another MacBook. I tried to revive and restore the laptop, but the process ends when the MacBook usually should show an Apple logo with a progress bar. I assume the main power lines and T2 are working. It seems like the Intel...

          Macbook Pro A1989 - No image, working fine with external monitor
          by Madoy104
          Hi everyone,


          I have a MacBook Pro A1989 that was likely exposed to liquid. It doesn't display an image on the built-in screen, but the screen is backlit (you can't see the Apple logo or any other elements when held up to light). The laptop provides 20V and 1.5-2A, and it works fine when I use it with an external monitor. Currently, the connector for the display (J8500) is disconnected. I'm writing to ask for help in diagnosing the issue. I've heard that when the J8500 is exposed to liquid, the processor pin responsible for the display might short-circuit, and I'd like to know...
