Solved The Tantalum Capacitor Is Short Circuited And I Would Like To Replace Macbook Pro 15 Retina Display Mid 2012

Chosen Solution

TantalumI do not know the value of tantalum capacitor used for MacBook Pro (Retina, Mid 2012). I want to replace it. The logic board number is 820 - 3332 - A. I would like to change the tantalum capacitor, but I do not know the value. please tell me.

Wow, all of the magic smoke escaped…no wonder the computer doesn’t work anymore. The blown cap is C7514 and it is a 68MF/16V/20% Polymer-Tantalum capacitor. According to the schematic, it is in a D2E case. Anyone of these caps should work fine although I would probably pick the one with the lowest ESR or if you can find an exact match (package marking-wise). The other option is to get one off a donor board.
