    MacBook A1989 820-00850-A

    Hi all,

    I've got a Macbook 2018 with touchbar that doesn't seem to be powering on. Doesn't have liquid damage or visible damage.
    - takes 20.2V and 0.4-0.5A
    - lcd doesnt appear to be turning on
    - no backlight, no keyboard light, no touchbar

    I got the schematic, and started to measure voltage on some components.
    Some clues where to start looking would be most welcome
    Any help is welcome

      Measure and post the voltage of

      1) PPBUS_G3H.

      2) I2C lines.

      See attached.

              Its fixed! It wasn't a hardware issue after all.
              I was able to get another Mac with usb-c and restore mine using DFU mode and Apple Configurator 2 on the working mac

              This guide is very helpful on how to enter DFU and how to restore:

                  Macbook Pro A1989 fallen, reboots if touchbar connected
                  by modtool
                  Hi to all,
                  the owner of this macbook brought it to me after a fall, that hit the upper right corner of the top case.
                  Luckily enough, the screen and all other parts of the machine haven't been damaged, only the touch bar wasn't lighting up anymore, and the macbook began to behave strangely, because it seems to start and work fine but suddendly it shutsdown (and at the same time the fans make a high rotation for half a second, as if an animal was annoyed by something...) at random times, sometimes after 2 minutes, sometimes after 5 minutes, but never over 10 minutes, then restarts...

                  Macbook Pro 13 2019 A1989 touchbar cable capacitor value
                  by flusher
                  Got this waterdamaged where oxidation happened under shield on touchbar cable. It showed image but no touch. After I cleaned and resoldered everything except ic (it is sealed anyway) i am getting touches however i find it a bit hit n miss where it works but sometimes missing dragging. Tapping seems fine. I think it might be something to do with this big cap which might be LDO or something. I placed 10v 2.2uF cap there. Anyone could measure it from good/dead touch bar lying around ?...

                  MacBook Pro A1989 820-00850-A not powering on
                  by ErinV
                  Hey everyone!

                  I have a MacBook Pro A1989 with a 820-00850-A board that recently stopped working. I used it overnight to charge my phone, in the morning it didn't turn on, I assumed flat battery but now won't charge and doesn't start at all.

                  I have fully dissassembled it, when disconnected the battery reads at 0.012V. Even with the battery disconnected the laptop doesn't boot.

                  The diode voltages around all 4 CD3215's seem fine.

                  For all CD3215 (UB300, UB400, U3100 and U3200) I read just above 5V on PP20V_USBC_TA_VBUS, 3.3V on PP3V3UPC_TA_LDO, 1.8V...

                  Macbook Pro A1989 (Touchbar), 820-00850-A, 20V 0A, Not Charging
                  by KappaDev
                  Hello,
                  I have a Macbook Pro A1989 that had liquid spilled on a thunderbolt hub that was plugged into one of the USB-C ports. The laptop will now no longer charge.

                  Hitting the power button displays the low battery icon and then goes off.
                  Power meter shows 20V drawing 0A. The same voltage displayed and amperage drawing on all 4 ports. Since the board is relatively cheap on this model, is there anyway to force charge the battery or run the board with a DC power supply to simulate the battery to retrieve the data?

                  Thanks.

                  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...
