Then, remove the motherboard and measure the diode data of each testing point of USB chip with multimeter, finding no problem. Next measure the capacitors of each supply power circuit on motherboard to check whether there is any short circuit. When testing the RF part, we find that RF amplifier IC of 3G function circuit has burn mark, as shown in picture 1-2.

Third, using HOT AIR GUN to remove power amplifier chip , as shown in picture 1-3, and clean the solder pad. Test the power on and off function and they are normal. Battery displays 56%. Charging it and testing it for several days, we find it is still normal. But as the amplifier chip is damaged, iPad displays no service when inserted SIM card. If you don’t use this function anymore then you can ignore the problem.
