MacBook Pro M1 2020 13" won't charge or turn on. The service center said to change the motherboard. What could be the reason?
Some forums write the reason for the update, but how to charge it? Motherboard costs as much as half of a new Mac..((( Please help..

logic board failure.
you would have to ask directly your Apple Store or AASP serving your machine for details.
Check your coverage

Consumer products, their warranties, and their extended warranties work in a predictable way.
Warrant-able implies, but does not guarantee, High Quality:
Consumer product makers build high quality products. You can tell because the manufacturer is willing to stand by their products and repair or replace them (but only for defects in materials or workmanship) at manufacturers expense for a stated warranty period.
For Apple Macs in most countries, that period is one year. That is the total responsibility Apple or any manufacturer has to you under law. Assumptions about additional responsibility of Apple or any other consumer product-maker's products working longer than the warranty period are not accurate. The amount you paid for the product has no bearing on this. The rules are the same for a car costing US$20,000 or more.
Electro-mechanical devices fail at random, arbitrary, and capricious times.
The most frequent reason for most failures is 'just because'.
Your specific failure is most likely caused by an advanced scientific principle called ...
... 'bad luck'.

If you want a really substantial lesson how this this works (or more precisely how this stops working) own an older used automobile.
Thank you very much for your feedback! I'm trying to find in other service centers which chip does not work in order to replace it. It is a pity that the official service Apple in my city does not help, but simply offers to buy a new motherboard ..they said "we are engaged in minor repairs, large - no one will do it, it is not profitable and in general - you will not find such a specialist."...
After all, such a breakdown on a relatively new device indicates a factory defect ..
<< and tell me how to solve it >>
The MacBook Pro is a lightweight, portable computer that can run on batteries. Being portable, it can easily be subjected to multi-G forces daily, just by being moved about in a completely ordinary way. This is extremely stressful to electro-mechanical equipment. Because of this, you should ALWAYS purchase the extended warranty coverage for such a portable device, regardless of whether you intend to move it about.
————
If you made the decision to NOT pay for the extended warranty, you made a decision to bear the cost of repairs during the extended warranty period yourself.
When facing a problem later, the correct cost calculation is:
Example Total retail cost of repair: US$800
less Example amount you saved US$380
by NOT purchasing a service agreement
Effective incremental cost: US$420
PLUS the amount you saved by not buying the Service contract, which now must be spent as well.
Thank you), I certainly understand this. I thought maybe someone faced a similar problem and tell me how to solve it.
