    A2289 820-01987 cannot restore T2

    I have this unit in small amount of spillage around charging IC, ppbus low 1.5v repaired that issue now getting 20V .3ma 11v ppbus. I cannot get this to restore or revive t2 even using SE032 method. I can see its in DFU mode but just errors at the end.
    Screen shows logo and full progress bar for a second or so then errors on host machine and unit still dead. Any ideas?

          A2338 820-02020-A 5V, no screen, unable to revive/restore
          by yheriatovych
          Hi. I need some help troubleshooting the issue (which is a bit odd to my limited experience) with the A2338 Macbook.

          Initial symptoms:

          One day the laptop refused to wake up (as it seemed at first), spinning the fan on full blast, with no picture on the screen.
          Force rebooting didn't help. To check if it boots at all I connected the external display and surprisingly it booted to the system, and I was able to log in to the system.
          However, I noticed that it was in some weird state:
          • The fan was still blasting at full speed. It's blasting even when the system

          iMac M1 DFU restore issue
          by Stephen
          iMac turns on no drops no cracks, tried to DFU Restore the iMac, logo turns on great! however iMac turns itself off and then restarts to the (!) icon and won't post the restore. Tried thunderbolt 3 cable, tried regular USB C cable and nothing.

          this is the message it gives me with the error

          Unexpected device state 'DFU' expected 'RestoreOS' (Probably forced into DFU mode externally) [com.apple.MobileDevice.MobileRestore – 0xFAE (4014)].


          Any thoughts what this could be? I will open it up and repair it but I am not 100% sure since this iMac doesn't...

          820-02918 PPBUS Cycling, Minor Liquid.
          by ugamazing
          Working on an 820-02918 board that had a minor liquid spill, but it was directly to the ISL/U5200. Essentially the entire area had to be replaced due to corrosion. Got it all cleaned up and everything looks good and checks out, but we're hitting a cycling PPBUS issue now. PPBUS_AON cycles quickly from ~9v-12v, indefinitely.

          Knowing this is typically a sign of a possible short on a lower rail, we checked all around and found no obvious damage or shorts. We have VERY LIMITED parts for this model (exactly 1 single U5200 chip), but I suspect it will end up being a continuity issue or...

          820-02020 A2338 Restore/Revive Failed
          by iMuhtaseb
          A2338 - Pristine condition.. I took out of the board and inspected it.. nothing.. as if the computer is barely used even.

          Anyway, customer said they tried erasing/formatting it and it got stuck on Apple logo preventing to go further.. I asked them why they tried to erase it from the first place? They said it turned off randomly once.. then they erased it and it worked out for a few days then it shut off again..

          I put the computer in DFU; I downloaded the latest Ventura IPSW and restored it.. during the "Installing.." it restarts then it shows the exclamation...
