    wifi ic shorted to ground on 2018 macbook air

    can the wifi chip (u3700) be replaced on 820-01521 without an issue? or does it have to be reenabled or something?

    MacBook Pro M1 A2338 820-02020 - No WiFI/Bluetooth or internal display
    by mcbadcbv
    Hello,

    I have a MacBook Pro M1 A2338 820-02020. It boots to OS but WiFi/Bluetooth are non-functional (exclamation point through WiFi symbol in menu bar) and the display is not working.

    Starting at the WiFi chip... PP3V3_S2_WLBT_ISNS is fluctuating at around 2.4V. No shorts detected around UL000.
    PPBUS_AON is 12V steady, but PPBUS_AON_3V3_S2_VIN_ISNS (measured at CC721) is 2.76V.
    LC710 is getting 2.4V at P3V3_SW, which explains PP3V3_S2 fluctuating around 2.4V.
    No detected shorts around UC710.

    This makes me believe that RD560 has failed and...

    Macbook Pro 2019 A2141 NAND Shorted
    by tech_guru
    Hello. If you could please help me understand what I am doing wrong...

    This model, Macbook Pro 2019 16" A2141, 512GB, EMC 3347, with T2 Security Chip, had 4 NAND Chips shorted in 1 wing (U9100, U9200, U9300, U9400) and it has 1 more in the 2nd wing (U8600) BUT NOT shorted. All chips are TSB4227 TOSHIBA-KIOXIA SN4192TWNA12014 BGA110 128GB. I got 4 new nand chips for 1 wing and programmed them by specific position of course with JCID P13 programmer.

    I also replaced the tps power ic for the ssd.
    Now all rails come up, including the ssd rails 0.9v, 1.8v, 2.5v....

    Acer TravelMate P214 - N19Q7 main power rail shorted to ground
    by mkdj
    Dear all,

    I have taken out the motherboard of a Acer TravelMate P214. There is a short to ground on the main power rail (19V). I don't have the schematics or boardview for this board (DAZ8IMB1AA0 REVA). But I have found 4 MOSFETS close to the main power rail : 2 N-Channel and 2 P-Channel.

    I have checked resistance across each of the 4 MOSFETS. I have the following readings:
    Both N-Channel Mosfets: nothing odd

    P-Channel MOSFET number 1:
    source - drain : 117 kOhm
    source - gate: 96 Ohm
    gate - drain: 117 kOhm


    P-Channel MOSFET...

    MacBook Pro 2018 - A1990 Dead - not charging - only 5V
    by robka
    Hi,

    my MacBook Pro 15" 2018 Touch Bar (A1990) doesn't charge anymore. Board# 820-01041-A

    I'm not experienced in diagnostics, but I want to try to solve the problem with your help, because every local shop charges around 600€ (650 usd). Which is the value of the whole Macbook.

    The Macbook was charging when suddenly the "charging sound" appeared every other second for around 4-5 times.
    After that the Macbook was dead. It isn't charging anymore.

    The USB-C Port where the charger was plugged is burned. Also The Cable and the...
