    MacBook A2179 Audio board+Power button boardview & schematic needed

    Hi.

    Long shot but does anyone have a schematic & boardview for the audio board+power button on a Macbook A2179?

    There is a shorted cap on mine and I need to know if I can safely remove it or whether I need to replace it and with what capacitor.

    Many thanks. Click image for larger version Name: A2179 audio board+power button.jpg Views: 159 Size: 453.6 KB ID: 3709311

      Macbook Air - 2018 - A1932 - 820-01521-02 - Bootlooping if Power Button Connected
      by reessi
      Hello,

      With the power button connected it either boot loops with the apple logo or no display but the charging meter shows it looping on charging every few seconds.

      No corrosion any where!

      Tried a replacement power button off ebay and the same.

      Very occasionally it will work with the power button connected!

      Same results with or without the battery.

      Can it be a fault with the Audio board or the mainboard?

      The touch Id assembly connects through the Audio board first then to the Mainboard.

      Macbook Air 2020 A2179 820-01958 (5V to the USB-C port unstable)
      by thuygsm
      Hi everyone,
      I have a MacBook Air A2179 in my hands that had power problems (5V to the USB-C port unstable).

      I noticed there is liquid at U3200 and U3100 and have replaced them.
      PP1V5_UPC_X_LDO_CORE : 1.575V
      PP3V3_UPC_X_LDO : 3.280V
      PP3V3_G3H_RTC: constantly fluctuating from 0.5V to 3.284V
      I have isolated R6979,
      Pin 1: 3.280V stable
      Pin 2: 0.447 (diode)
      PPBUS_G3H: 12.28V (with R6979 isolated)
      PPBUS_G3H: fluctuates 5V -> 4V -> 6V -> 12.28V(when R6979 is present), and repeats in a loop
      What should I do next?

      HP Envy 13-BA1565na with intermittent power button
      by themosttogain
      Hope someone can give me some suggestions on this because i'm at my wits end with it...

      I have an Envy 13-BA1565na here with an Intel Core i7 i7-1165G7 CPU (board is a LA-J475P Rev 1.0) which has an intermittent power button issue. The power button is integrated into the keyboard, and I have ruled out the keyboard, BIOS and battery as being the issue.

      Basically, on mains power, the power button works fairly well. The first time you come to it after leving it sitting (either on charge or not on charge), it might take 2 or 3 presses of the button, but then the laptop boots...

      MacBook Air A2179 stuck logo , pls help me !
      by conghuyms
      Hey everyone,

      I’ve got a MacBook Air A2179 that got some water damage through the keyboard. Now it powers on, shows the Apple logo, but just stays stuck there — no startup chime, no keyboard backlight, and no progress bar under the Apple logo.

      When I try to boot into Internet Recovery (Option + Command + R), the mouse cursor is extremely slow and laggy — like when I lift my finger off the trackpad, the cursor keeps drifting slowly for a second or two.

      I opened it up and found some corrosion around the LED driver IC area on the logic board. I cleaned...

      Macbook Air 2020 A2179 Internet Recovery and Battery Issues
      by cheebster
      Hello, i have a batch of 10 Macbook Pros A2179 bought from a Costco return wholesaler.


      The 10 of them show the exact same behavior;

      They auto power on, to internet recovery spinning globe, fans to 100%.

      Power consumption on USB-C port is 0.43a, shuts down as soon as unplugged. Battery doesn't charge at all. However, it boots to 20V on the Ampmeter.

      Based on their iBridge versions (4.x and 5.x) these were shelfed for a long time.

      All of them power on the same way; 100% fans, shut down as soon as they are unplugged. Removing...
