MacBook A1278 (3115) No PPBUS_G3H Issue

Subject: Help Needed: MacBook A1278 (3115) No PPBUS_G3H Issue

Hello everyone,

I'm working on a MacBook A1278 with the 3115 logic board and facing an issue with no PPBUS_G3H voltage. Here's what I've checked so far:
1. U7000 Measurements:
  - Pin 3 has 0V, even though R7012 shows 16.5V from PPDCIN_S5_CHGR.
2. Resistors:

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...
