Anyone identify these micro components?

Block Image

Hey peoples,

I was replacing some parts, and put the machine back together to find that it wouldn't power up.

Then I found these parts had come loose (on the part of the motherboard where the transistors and power cable enters in).

Does anyone know what they are ? (managed to resolder the brown one but the black one is crushed)

So, does anyone know how to fix? Alternate solutions I might not have thought of, or have any clue what the parts are?

As it would probably save me a bit instead of replacing the whole section of MB.

Thanks for any help!

Can you identify its board number 820-xxxx

The resolution is way to low to see anything

@danj whereabouts is that typically located? There's a number near the underside of the CPU that starts off with 94v- E222034, A005012UU...... wasnt sure if thats it.

@sad_duck - It will be faint! Its part of the copper traces look for the 820- with four digits 820-xxxx I think its on the CPU side I don't have a 2019 board to look at right now. We need that to reference the schematics and board views to ID the parts.

the brown ones are typically capacitors and the black ones are resistors. the resistors can be tricky and you may need a certain one for that location. if you can find a donor board that would be your best bet on figuring out which one youd need! Louis rossman and northridgefix on YT would be a good place to start looking for pictures of donor boards!
