Hi all, want to ask what is the best way to clean the ME region. I need to clean the ME region for a Apple MacBook Air A1466 (Logic Board 820-00165-A). Do I have to remove the SPI BIOS physically (Remove from the logic board) & re-flash the BIOS with clean flash Bin files rather than using the on-board service connector? & if possible can some one send me the link or clean file to re-program this BIOS for this MacBook Air A1466 model? Thanks all in advance.

Hi everyone! I'm trying to fix my black screen / failed U8900 GPU v-core on my Mid-2012 Macbook Pro 15" Retinaby doing a rework/reflow of the chip (once I determine that's the real issue; but it likely is).
I've been disabling the GPU in NVRAM for a few years... but it's just time for a better solution.
I'm new to soldering but the only feasible way to fix this issue is to do something myself.
MY QUESTION:
I've been seeing some people (on this forum mostly) run into issues with the logic board needing a serial number or it being deactivated (?)... -
by psdavid65I received a 2013 Macbook Air A1466 820-3437-B motherboard with serial number C02L6GQ9FSV8 that came in WITHOUT a bios chip. I got a new bios chip and reprogrammed it. Macbook now powers on but doesn't boot the SSD. I've flashed a ton of bios but still same problem. Windows installation works with this Macbook but never a mac installation. Unfortunately, since I didn't receive this macbook with a bios chip, I don't have the original bios. What can I do now?...

by ledbylightHi all!
This is my first post and also one of my first "deep dives" into electronic repair. I'm used to doing basic tasks with computers, like SSD/CPU replacement, thermal past re-application, etc. So here's the story...
I have a MacBook Air M1 that I bought to repair (I know, I'm weird; though I'm a CompSci major and want to learn more, and it will not display anything on the internal display. I have verified that there's no backlight, as I booted the laptop and shined a flashlight on it and there's no display; it does completely boot up, and shows fine on an external...

by mferna14Dear buddies., working on a MacBook Air A1466 (Logic Board 820-00165-A 2017). The logic board turns on fine (This is all done without battery) & the Magsafe jack is lit to orange. I boot it up to OS. Once I shut it down, it does not turn on again unless I remove the magsafe 2 jack & put it back again. There is no liquid spill & the voltages seem to be fine. I re-build a new BIOS & CleanME region done, but the problem still exsist. Once shut down, does not turn on from the keyb power ON/OFF button. I put in a new keyboard & the MagSafe/Audio board & a new flex cable too,...

by echothegamerHello all,
Working on my wife's 13' Macbook air. It's been in a box since she upgraded but I figured it could be good practice.
Details:
Macbook 13' A1466
Board (820-3209-A)
Battery OEM 7.3v 50Wh 6700 mAh (020-7379-A)

I don't know how to test the voltage on a MacBook battery. I just assumed it had an enable pin but the best I could read was 300 something mV poking around the battery connector.
It's an older model and it is very likely that battery has become... - Loading...
