BIOS .rar 4.06 MB Shared

RAR archive holding firmware for the MacBook Pro 13-inch A1708 Late 2016, logic board 820-00875 with the -01 suffix. In the Apple 820 scheme this number identifies the logic board, so it has to match the one printed on the PCB. A dump like this is used to reprogram the EFI boot ROM chip with an SPI programmer when the machine stays dark or loops at startup. Make a verified backup of the existing chip first, because it carries machine-specific serial and network data that a generic image lacks.
