Wi-Fi/Bluetooth Module
The Wi-Fi module is a standalone PCB that often fails due to thermal cycling. Heat generated by the adjacent LED backlighting causes the wireless chipset's solder joints to degrade, leading to a loss of communication with the main SoC. Replacing this module restores the physical hardware layer required for the operating system to initialize the network stack.

Main Logic Board
If the Wi-Fi module is functional, the failure likely resides in the peripheral power rail or the data bridge on the main board. If the motherboard cannot provide the 3.3V or 5V standby power to the Wi-Fi header, the module will never initialize. This is the primary resolution if replacing the module and cable fails to restore connectivity.

Wi-Fi Module Ribbon Cable
The Flexible Flat Cable (FFC) connecting the module to the mainboard can develop high resistance due to oxidation at the pin contacts. This impedance mismatch disrupts the high-frequency data signals required for wireless communication. Replacing the cable ensures a clean, low-resistance path for data and power.
