Experts,
A1707 won't boot. UNLESS I unplug J6951 (and either push Tough ID or USB-C insert).... I'm guessing pin 2 or 3 shorted to gnd. BUT the keyboard is unresponsive no matter what, and they use J4500 & J4501...
Can these 2 be related? Does the I2C bus for keyboard also have battery signals (meaning if 1 shorted, they both fail)?
How can I test to see if the keyboard doesn't need to be replaced?
BIG thanks to anyone familiar, as non-LB schematics are non-existent.
P.S. Sure wish I could hook the scope up to these busses instead of needing 3-4 hands... maybe solder wires to PCB test points to clip on to like we used to do?)
...also attached the shot of the 2 connectors with kbd I2C
