          hi.

          1) check the keyboard cable to the logic board connection

          2) do you see the keyboard backlight working on this replacement?

                  On the connector, just visually confirm that there are no bent pins. We have done similar keyboard replacements at the low level and worked well in the end but it was not the same A1707 unit.

                  Just confirm that the keyboard cables are mating correctly.

                  There are some youtube videos on this topic - please review them as well.

                      Ok I'll check on the connector.
                      Do you have any links to those videos

                          Hi. I’ve tried another connector but it didn’t work.
                          So i got another motherboard and fixed it in the chasis woth the faulty keyboard but still it didn’t work.
                          Am probably thinking that the new keyboard isn’t just working.

                              It is not uncommon to receive new keyboards and they do not work. If you ordered them from china i would be careful because they resell returns. You will want to buy from a reputable company that sells OEM parts. FYI, the keyboard has the backlight integrated inside the keyboard itself, there is no connector for the backlight on these keyboards, they are all in one connection. I seen cases where the keyboard works but the backlight does not, and vice versa.

                                  Ok. So let me just buy another keyboard. Coz even the backlight isn’t working on this one.

                                      I would recommend you buy a topcase with a battery (new top case) or even a known used one that is working. There are people selling these on eBay always.

                                              MacBook Pro A1707 Won’t Boot – No Display, Fans Spin Briefly
                                              by Herby94
                                              Hi everyone,
                                              I’m currently having an issue with my MacBook Pro (A1707). It doesn’t power on or make any sounds.
                                              • The charger is a generic third-party unit that had a loose connection at the AC input (127VAC). I fixed it, and now it delivers 20VDC to the laptop.
                                              • When connected, the fans spin for about 30 seconds before shutting off.
                                              • No display, no audio, and no signs of life during this time.

                                              Any ideas? Could this be a logic board issue, or is the charger still a problem? Thanks in advance!...

                                              Hi! This Mac has been an headscratcher for me, I can't seem to figure out the issue. The Macbook has gotten water damage to the front of the keyboard connector and battery connector. The keyboard connector was dead, by which I mean it was completely corroded and I have replaced it with a brand new one.
                                              I have verified all the pins are connected to the main board and the main voltages (PP1V8_AONSW_KBD_ISNS and PP3V3_AON_KBD_CONN) are both present, with and without keyboard attached.

                                              Unfortunately, the keyboard does NOT want to work, caps lock LED not functioning as well as any...
