    I think that you may be measuring the wrong resistor since C7020 is correct @ 2R5 ohms. Can you share a pic of the resistor @ R7601 that you are measuring?

    AHA moment. Fell into the ole trap.

    The part number is R7061 (not R7601)

    Double check again.

      yes sorry i have typed it incorrectly, R7061​ = 001.1 ohms

        Good. What is the voltage to ground of PPDCIN_G3H ? Need to confirm that the adapter voltage is @ 20v to properly power this logic board. You can also check with a USB Type C meter between the power adapter and this logic board.

        What is the voltage and the current draw shown on the USB C meter?

          when i look on thermal camera both cd32s get like a hot dot spot inside them both of the the chips

            Check for shorts to ground on PP3v3_S5 and PP1v8_S5. First measure the voltage to ground of these rails. If missing, remove all power and check their resistance to ground. Post each measurement.

                I believe this is your case:

                  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...

                  MacBook Pro 2018 with Activation Lock
                  by envym
                  Hi everyone!

                  I have a 2018 MacBook Pro (with Sequoia OS) that I've been using for years with no problem. I recently received an M2 MacBook Pro so I'm mostly using it and not the 2018 one, but since a friend of mine needs a computer, I thought I could restore my 2018 and give it brand-new-like to my friend.

                  I tried using the built-in tool to restore the MacBook (Settings > General > Transfer or restore > Delete) but it got stuck when trying to remove the Find Device configuration (it asked me for the password for my old Apple ID -now I use the same account but...

                  Macbook Air 2018 A1932 Bootloop
                  by Clarify4082
                  Hi,

                  I have a A1932 Macbook Air with Bootloop.

                  I already replaced the battery with a new one and reset NVRAM and SNC.
                  When I start the Macbook the Screen is coming on (no Logo) and switches of after a few seconds. If I start without the trackpad and keyboard it stays on longer.

                  If I use diagnostic (Option+D), recovery (Option+R) I always get the Apple logo and it go into online-Recovery. Even if I boot the installer from a USB-stick it ends up in online-recovery. Sometimes it crashed short after entering the wifi password, sometimes it loads the recovery...

                  ASUS X54H laptop thinks it's always charging even with charger unplugged
                  by flat-earther
                  The charging indicator light on my ASUS X54H laptop is always on even when the charger is disconnected.

                  Windows also shows ''Plugged in'' when charger is not connected.

                  This problem started year ago gradually, when unplugging the charger the charging light took several seconds to disappear, then minutes, and now almost always on even when unplugged for an entire day.
                  Strangely, before sometimes immediately when plugging in the charger the charging light went away, and later came back with it connected.
                  If I let battery run out and say it has 3% Windows will...

                  MacBook Air M1 A2337 battery/charging issue
                  by drlarsen
                  Hello. Sorry for the long post, but I am trying to decide if this is a simple battery replacement, or potentially something more complicated.

                  I bought an open box MacBook Air M1 2020 A2337. Seller claimed it was never used. Visually, it appears pristine.

                  On arrival, the battery was completely flat. Computer powers up and boots fine. Battery status showing 1% and charging, 1 cycle. coconutBattery showing 0 mAh and ~6 watts.
                  After some hours, the battery status did not improve. Restore via DFU did not help.

                  I connected the power adapter to a Kill-a-Watt...
