    See here for some ideas:

    BTW - About to work on a similar case - what is the HOST you are using to run the Apple Configurator 2 tool ? Have not had a need to use it till now.

    Do you see the 'DFU' message once the TARGET is in DFU mode with the hotkey presses ?

      Water damaged MacBook Air A1932 AmrestoreErrorDomin Error-9 trying to restore with configurator
      by dbuergi
      Hi all,

      this Macbook was stuck at 5v and didn't start because of some water damage. I was able to clean everything and the board started. So i put everything back together and the Macbook seems to boot with 20v, 1,4A and 29W. So i decided a DFU recovery. At 50% of the system repair i get the error massage from the title. Display stays black and no Apple logo. Both repair and recovery don't work.
      Is there anything i can do?

      I have a problem I'm hoping someone can help me with. I have an A2289 MacBook that had some liquid damage. After repairing any areas that had corrosion, I was able to get it to show 20v but only .01a on the multimeter. It was consistent on all ports, however I could not get the MacBook to go into DFU mode. I read that I should refllash U4770 and after grabbing the bin from this site I did just that. After soldering the chip back on the board, now I have DFU mode, but the thing is, it won't revive or restore, giving me the error that the device left the DFU state or something to that effect. The...

      MacBook Pro A2289 no signs of life except clicking trackpad and charging
      by Woodsworth
      Hi,

      I hope this is the correct place to post about this device. I originally posted regarding this on iFixit so see the details from that post below:

      "I'm hoping someone can give their opinion on the symptoms I'm seeing before I spend any more time and put money into this. I got this MacBook from a customer and after looking at it they decided they didn't want it.

      It doesn't turn on and there's no visual signs of life. I have tried resetting the NVRAM, SMC, power cycling, unplugging the battery, using the charger with the battery unplugged. Removed the...
