00:00:00,300 --> 00:00:05,066

Hello everyone, today we will learn about the common problems of these models of Apple laptops

2

00:00:07,433 --> 00:00:11,633

A1706, A1707 and A1708,

3

00:00:14,266 --> 00:00:17,600

these models have a common problem of dark screen failure

4

00:00:20,333 --> 00:00:24,900

When the screen is turned to a 45-degree angle, it can be displayed normally,

5

00:00:25,200 --> 00:00:28,233

and it will not be displayed when it is turned a little further

6

00:00:32,600 --> 00:00:38,300

This is usually due to the repeated stretching of its backlight cable, resulting in disconnection

7

00:00:45,666 --> 00:00:48,200

The solution is to replace the backlight cable,

8

00:00:48,566 --> 00:00:51,433

or scrape off the surface layer of the cable,

9

00:00:53,566 --> 00:00:59,433

connect the broken parts with wires, and then apply a protective layer of green oil to cure

10

00:01:02,966 --> 00:01:06,100

But this repair method is easy to cause rework

11

00:01:09,200 --> 00:01:12,400

So we suggest that when you encounter this kind of failure,

12

00:01:12,866 --> 00:01:15,266

you can directly replace the backlight cable

13

00:01:20,033 --> 00:01:23,300

A1708's Wifi and Bluetooth cannot be used

14

00:01:23,633 --> 00:01:28,633

Mostly the Wifi Bluetooth module is damaged, or its working condition is not normal

15

00:01:29,133 --> 00:01:32,366

The solution is to first check the power supply of the Wifi module,

16

00:01:32,600 --> 00:01:36,633

PCIE bus, platform reset, and PCIE bus clock

17

00:01:41,000 --> 00:01:44,366

Most of it is caused by its power supply being pulled down,

18

00:01:45,100 --> 00:01:50,666

basically the Wifi module is short-circuited, and the Wifi and Bluetooth module needs to be replaced

19

00:01:54,166 --> 00:01:59,666

A1706 A1707 flooded, hard disk cannot be recognized

20

00:02:00,066 --> 00:02:04,533

For this kind of failure, we focus on checking each power supply of the hard disk

21

00:02:05,000 --> 00:02:08,000

Generally, the power supply chip of the hard disk is damaged

22

00:02:08,433 --> 00:02:11,233

or the power supply of the hard disk is disconnected

23

00:02:12,566 --> 00:02:16,133

The problem can be found by checking each power supply of the hard disk

24

00:02:21,100 --> 00:02:26,200

When the A1707 is only using the adapter, it can be turned on normally,

25

00:02:26,800 --> 00:02:29,566

and the screen will be dark after the battery is connected

26

00:02:30,200 --> 00:02:35,233

In this case, we first check the two dormant lid close switch signals, LID

27

00:02:36,300 --> 00:02:41,900

If the signal is normal, we check the working condition of the EC, or replace the EC

28

00:02:47,400 --> 00:02:53,966

The common point of A1706 is normal, the 3.3V deep sleep standby voltage is normal,

29

00:02:54,366 --> 00:02:58,533

the PM_SLP_SUS_L signal can be generated normally,

30

00:02:59,166 --> 00:03:02,866

and the deep sleep standby power supply can be successfully converted into

31

00:03:02,866 --> 00:03:06,600

PP3V3_SUS light sleep standby power supply,

32

00:03:07,600 --> 00:03:13,600

but a small power supply PP1V8_SUS of the power chip U7800 cannot be generated,

33

00:03:13,966 --> 00:03:15,533

which is a common problem

34

00:03:23,700 --> 00:03:27,566

It is usually caused by damage to the power chip U7800

35

00:03:30,566 --> 00:03:34,100

Our solution is generally to solder the power supply chip first

36

00:03:35,766 --> 00:03:39,633

U7800 is a common power supply chip on Apple laptops

37

00:03:40,400 --> 00:03:43,166

It integrates multiple power supplies inside

38

00:03:49,000 --> 00:03:53,066

If the chip cannot be repaired after soldering, you can replace the chip

39

00:03:59,100 --> 00:04:03,033

Let's take a look at the common problems of Apple A1534

40

00:04:05,233 --> 00:04:10,933

This laptop uses a very low-power version of the CPU, there is no cooling fan inside

41

00:04:14,933 --> 00:04:19,566

If the power-on current of this machine stops at about 500 mA,

42

00:04:20,700 --> 00:04:24,933

it is mostly because the CPU is soldered falsely or the CPU is damaged

43

00:04:25,333 --> 00:04:28,266

Our solution is to try to solder the CPU first

44

00:04:29,733 --> 00:04:33,633

If the problem cannot be solved, we will replace the CPU

45

00:04:37,000 --> 00:04:41,900

The 2015 A1534 cannot recognize the hard disk when it is turned on

46

00:04:42,166 --> 00:04:44,066

This is also a common problem

47

00:04:45,233 --> 00:04:47,566

The solution is to solder the CPU first,

48

00:04:49,866 --> 00:04:52,266

and then check the main power supply of the hard disk

49

00:04:52,666 --> 00:04:55,766

Its hard disk power supply chip is also easy to break

50

00:04:58,766 --> 00:05:03,033

The 2016 A1534 adapter does not boost the voltage,

51

00:05:03,200 --> 00:05:09,766

usually because the USB controller CD3215 does not send a POWER_GATE_EN signal to the charging chip

52

00:05:13,300 --> 00:05:17,300

Basically because the D3215's external program is corrupted

53

00:05:18,766 --> 00:05:23,566

The external program exists in this Flash chip, U3090

54

00:05:26,466 --> 00:05:30,600

There is also a reason that the U3100 itself is damaged

55

00:05:34,166 --> 00:05:41,266

So the solution is to flash the U3090, or replace the U3100 and U3090
