BIOS .rar 4.51 MB Shared

Firmware archive for the Apple MacBook Pro 13-inch A1708 built on logic board 820-00840-A, with the token ECM3154 also carried in the name. Apple 820-series numbers identify the main logic board, and the suffix marks the revision, so compare both with the silkscreen before use. Packed as RAR, the image is meant for rewriting the boot ROM SPI chip with an external programmer when a Mac will not boot or shows a firmware lock. Save a full read of the original chip first, since it holds serial and configuration data.
