Re: Macbook A1466 dies when charger disconnected
Yeah, I agree.
I just can't afford parts right now, unfortunately. Still don't know why the diode read as it did. I can only assume it is because it was in circuit. But when charging it seemed fine.

It's an older model and it is very likely that battery has become...

Re: New Members - please post your introductions here
Hi, my name is Blake and I am learning how to do board-level repair on pretty much any device I can get my hands on. I've come across this forum a couple of times and it has been useful to say the least
