    How to Clean ME Region MacBook Air A1466

    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.

      Macbook Pro Core I7 A2251 EMC3348 Help Remove MDM
      by MICHAEL_2013
      Good afternoon. My client brought me a Mac A2251 EMC 3348 that he bought at a sale. The computer is completely iCloud-free, but it came with MDM installed. He has tried contacting the company that provides the MDM in every way possible, but they are unwilling to offer a solution. The device is:
      Model A2251 EMC 3348. Serial Number: C02G54CZML85
      Apple MacBook Pro Core i7 2.3, 13" 2020, 512 GB SSD, 16 GB RAM.
      I've tried changing the serial number of the SoC ROM MX25U3235F, but it hasn't worked:
      C02G54CZML84 only works up to Monterey.
      C02G54CZML86 doesn't work (I...

      Will I have a bricked logic board after reflow of the GPU v-core U8900 chip on my Mid-2012 15" Retina Macbook pro?
      by korben_dallas
      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 (?)...

      Macbook Air A1466 820-3437-B Booting Problem
      by psdavid65
      I 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?...

      identify capacitor for MacBook Pro with rare logic board 820-02037-06
      by devsigner
      Hi

      While messing around with my MacBook Pro, I stupidly pinged off a very small surface mounted component that I’m now trying to identify.
      resistance tests show a rising resistance value, indicating a capacitor.

      The laptop boots up and runs, however I'm choosing not to use it until I get it fixed.

      i can’t see any markings on the capacitor at 10x magnification using a professional jewler's loop.

      It seems like there's some damage to the capacitor - one side doesn't have "shiny bits" - can you tell I don't do this for a living!...

      M1 A2337 Macbook - No Display, likely due to logic board
      by ledbylight
      Hi 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...
