Re: Macbook Pro 15" 2019 (A1990, 820-01814) CD3215 shenanigans

So the 2 CD3215's that I placed could both be just bad? That would be hilarious...

It takes 5v on one side and 20v on the other side with or without battery connected, should've mentioned that.

Hi! Thanks in advance for taking your time reading this / helping me out .

I have this MB Pro which had a defective CD3215C00Z. After replacing that one, I figured out that I needed to replace the other one as well since I only had CD3215C00 chips (without the Z at the end).

Now the funny thing is where I replaced both the CD3215 chips, it takes 5V ~.32A and the other side that I didn't touch now takes 20V ~.45A (then drops down to .03A).

Do I need to replace the 2 CD3215 chips that I didn't touch as well? Feels so counterintuitive so I'm having...
