Apple MacBook Air a1466 laptop cannot be started for maintenance
Apple MacBook Air a1466 notebook can not start SMD REWORK STATION. Remove this IC. Both PCB and IC pin6 are corrode Oxygenation. It seems that VIN 14.85v is not fully input into lt3470 pin6.Handle IC pin and PCB PAD, solder back lt3470 and blow off resistor Capacitor.Power on test returned to normal VCC 3.42v.Install the motherboard back into the c-shell, power on, boot into the system.
