    Macbook Air 2013 820-3437 OSx Frozen and Kernel Panic Missing ME

    I got 2013 820-3437 that can't boot completely onto OSx and can load EFI ASD BUT can't on OS ASD and it gives this kernel panic error FAILURE missing ME. I already check ME disable strap HDA_SDOUT_R is low

    Also before I reflash the bios I was able to boot osx 10.9 maverick SSD from another client. But when I install a fresh maverick it is frozen.

    I already reflash bios using ch341 with clean me provided by piernov and 2informaticos then I even make my own using piernov's guide. some of those BIOS are boot looping the system.

    I also manage to damage the chip because of repeated heat. Didn't have jtag connector. 😢
    I am completely lost or I am doing something wrong or this is a waste of time.
    Maybe some of you encounter this issue and resolved it. Thank you.

    You start with physical examination of the board for any signs of liquid damage and/or corrosion. If there is crap under a BGA (CPU/PCH/SMC etc), this can cause strange behaviour of some boards. Sometimes ultrasonic cleaning can solve some of these issues. But this is only done after you've identified all areas of corrosion and dealt with them. No point doing this straight up as it washes away all the evidence.

    Get yourself a half decent programmer (RT809 is pretty cheap) and flip top style adaptor for EEPROM programming. You can get replacement EEPROM's off Ali or take it off a donor board.
