    Hi,
    I replaced BIOS dump, but it gives me nothing.
    It is another kind of problem.

    Re: Macbook A1466 A820-00165 CHECK my BIOS please

    Try the bios at posts 13 and 44 ,both have clean ME firmware ,all you need to do is add your serial number using a hex editor,and modify the fsys checksum.

    https://www.badcaps.net/forum/showpo...43&postcount=5

    4.3. Apple
    For 2017 and older machines, serial number is stored in Fsys store of BIOS and can be edited with hexadecimal editor. Fsys checksum needs to be fixed afterwards
    Search for "ssn", edit the serial number, save, open dump in UEFITool, go to the Fsys store and write down the suggested checksum in the panel on the right. Checksum is 4 bytes at the end of the Fsys store, between one zone of 0x00 either Gaid or another zone of 0xFF, it must be written in reverse order (so last 2 characters from UEFITool must be written first).

    EMC 3178

    A820-00165-A
    serial FVFWQ0B7J1WV

    May be dump was from different version A1466, because

    SPI had traces of soldering and was soldered lack of contact.


    In-build apple test is OK (ADP000)
    I can choose download source, but during the downloading system crashes.


    Here is my SPI dump attached. Help me please.
    Thank you in advance.

    MAcbook Air A1466 EMC 3178 - 2017 Boot
    by Sergio Kub
    Could someone help me?
    I have a Macbook Air A1466 EMC 3178 - 2017, board 820-00165 and sometimes the boot interrupts with an image of a folder and a question mark.
    Could it be the BIOS?

    Macbook Air A1466 EMC 3178 missing power and liquid damaged
    by BMCappelletti
    Hi everyone.
    Macbook Air A1466 EMC 3178 (board 820-00165 A) not turning on and no charging light. Completely dead. With no battery connected it would power up and I could hear the chime, but nothing on the screen and then a sudden turn off. Sometimes during the chime. Opened it up and found some liquid damage. The flat that connects both boards has damage in one side (with a missing pin already). The connectors on the boards are fine, though.
    Also, there was liquid damage on the included picture area, which are R8111 and C8111. A quick and soft brush on it made the resistor be gone....

    MacBook Air A1466 2017 Operating Very Slow
    by ACS-Repair
    I'm hoping someone can help me with a 2017 MacBook Air A1466 820-00165 that is running very slow. This is a board that I picked up on ebay recently.
    This is not being caused by a sensor issue. All sensors report normal operation and the fans run at normal speed. Geekbench gives me a single core CPU value of 124, when it should be closer to 400. I was unable to complete an install on the SSD without putting it into a different computer first.
    The board appears clean with no sign of liquid damage. I have done a PRAM and SMC reset, and I have done a reflow of the SMC. I have inspected...
