Looking for a component
Hello, I am willing to repair a MacBook Pro 13” Touch Bar 2017.
Do you know what is the missing component in the picture?
Thank you.
Is this a good question?

it’s called a lifeboat connector, which is missing its cover. with this missing, your macbook would not recognize internal storage.

See step #16 of this guide, it’s a small metal plate, probably covering a test port as there is nothing exiting it:

Here’s a picture of the cover as it also a bridge connector which is needed! Did you forget it or did someone forget to put it on?
