Hi I have a Macbook Air A1369 the 2011 version with a 820-3023-A logicboard.

The problem i have is its not starting, like many others in this thread :)
If i connect the magsafe it will charge the battery going from orange to green in a few hours. The machine does not start after a SMC bypass with connecting the magsafe while holding power and then preleasing and repressing the powerbutton, the fans kick in at maxspeed but nothing more seems to happend, no chimes or anything.

ive tried resetting prams smc diconnecting devices (battery, speakers, radio, ssd, keyboard (tried starting wiht the jumpstart pads)).

if i leave the machine it seems to do something as the cpu feels, sligly warmer than the rest of the mac. and it drains the battery.

I had the logicboard removed but it hasnt been exposed to water and all the markes were still white.

at first i was thining of ordering a used but working smc to desolder and install in this but as its not working with the smc bypass i decided to ask here :)

any ideas ?
