Something has burnt here, anybody knows which part is it? Hello there, Firstly, when I turned on my MacBook Pro 2017 it entered to critical software update loop, which is mainly about Touch Bar for these models. After attempting many ways it somehow opened and everything seemed OK. Then I saw this and when I touched it, my Macbook shut downed suddenly. It is smelling cable burn. Does anyone know which part is this? Thanks in advance.
