      Check all the power rail one by one. S5, S4,S3, S2 and S0 etc.

              How did you get S3 power rail if you missing S5 power rail? You need S5 power rail to be present in order to go S4 state = S3 if S3 power rail are all present then you should have SO power rail.

                  MacBook A2179 Audio board+Power button boardview & schematic needed
                  by Darren Hibbert
                  Hi.

                  Long shot but does anyone have a schematic & boardview for the audio board+power button on a Macbook A2179?

                  There is a shorted cap on mine and I need to know if I can safely remove it or whether I need to replace it and with what capacitor.

                  Many thanks. ...

                  Macbook Air 2020 A2179 Internet Recovery and Battery Issues
                  by cheebster
                  Hello, i have a batch of 10 Macbook Pros A2179 bought from a Costco return wholesaler.


                  The 10 of them show the exact same behavior;

                  They auto power on, to internet recovery spinning globe, fans to 100%.

                  Power consumption on USB-C port is 0.43a, shuts down as soon as unplugged. Battery doesn't charge at all. However, it boots to 20V on the Ampmeter.

                  Based on their iBridge versions (4.x and 5.x) these were shelfed for a long time.

                  All of them power on the same way; 100% fans, shut down as soon as they are unplugged. Removing...

                  by echothegamer
                  Hello all,

                  Working on my wife's 13' Macbook air. It's been in a box since she upgraded but I figured it could be good practice.

                  Details:
                  Macbook 13' A1466
                  Board (820-3209-A)
                  Battery OEM 7.3v 50Wh 6700 mAh (020-7379-A)

                  Pictures below of Boardview and schematic...

                  I don't know how to test the voltage on a MacBook battery. I just assumed it had an enable pin but the best I could read was 300 something mV poking around the battery connector.

                  It's an older model and it is very likely that battery has become...

                  A2179 Macbook Air turns ON and works normally with a battery but it is not charging
                  by CAPTGENE
                  I have similar a similar issue. My A2179 Macbook Air turns ON and works normally with a battery but it is not charging. With the USC-C alone it takes 20V but only 100mA, PPBUS is 12.3Volts, and wont turn ON.

                  I replaced U7000 twice with the same result. not charging!

                  Whats should I check or replace?

                  Lenovo T460 Only Charges on One Charger
                  by motormayhem
                  Laptop Question
                  Hello,
                  I'm working on a Lenovo T460 that has been having trouble charging as of late. Its worked well since I've owned it for a few years. When I went to use it the other day it was dead and wouldn't turn on (was sitting on an Anker 65W GaN charger). After some fiddling with the charger I got it to turn on and start charging, but seemed like the charger was not working as it should (took a few plug and unplug cycles to get it to start charging).

                  A day later it was dead again and wouldn't boot/charge no matter what I did. No lights or anything when...
