    Spectacular instructions. Extremely easy to follow. I do this for a living and like to watch these before taking something apart that I haven't done in years. Absolutely perfect.

    Perfect tutorial, I fixed my Macbook Air with ease. Tools were sent from Germany to the United Kingdom and good here in a flash (and loved the free bag of sweets, om nom nom!!). Thanks for such a great tutorial!! :)

    The camera cable on my model A 1466 mac book air plugs right into the top side of the I/O board which is different than what you show in the video. The connector at the end of the cable is different than the one on your video and the one on the replacement screen that I bought. Any suggestions?

    No need to disconnect R+L speaker cable & the i/o board (4:01 - 4:50), the left speaker cable is very small, very difficult to remove, you might remove the connector which is soldered to the board. The camera cable can be removed by cutting as the new replacement come with this cable.
    The antenna cable is most difficult to install (5:07), very small connectors and must be very careful.

    Overall good video but its not complete without showing how to put them back together. Thats also hard part. Besides, the camera frequently switches to show your face (no offense) and it's distracting users from orientation. I'd prefer to keep camera focusing on the work being done instead of switching constantly for every step. I am losing orientation :-( Thanks for the overall effort

    Why don't any of your sets include a TR6 instead of just the T6? It's completely pointless to use ordinary T5/T6/etc. since TRx is compatible with Tx.
    I would buy one of your kits if you did include that.

  • @markcoelen89

    Hello! Great movie, thank you! I have an additional question. I was wondering whether it is possible to solely change the aluminium case that covers the display at both sides (MacBook Air 13 inch early 2015). On holiday, my MacBook accidentally did hit the floor :-( To replace the entire display component is super expensive and very unnecessary because every still works. That is, my problem merely has to do with the destruction of the aesthetics of my Apple product.
    So, let me explain my case in more detail, because there is a good chance I overlooked my possibilities: if the Macbook is closed (and in front of you), and you consider the frontside, so the place where you normally open the MacBook, at that thin side there is some damage (due gravity and the floor.) This damage covers the uppercase and the case that "covers" keyboard. So: I need to replace both elements. I already saw it is possible to replace the aluminium case that "covers" the keyboard, and that part is not so expensive, perfect! Nevertheless, to replace the entire display is much more expensive, about 500 dollars I just noticed. But I do not need an entire new display, I just need the freaking aluminium case. My question: is it possible to just replace that aluminium case? Thank you very much for your time!!!! And sorry for my bad English, I hope it is all understandable (I am not a native speaker, I am Dutch). Cheers, Mark.

    Fyi, if you bought a replacement screen that is just the screen only, this is not the video to watch. This is totally unnecessary to replace that portion. They should state that at the beginning of the video.

  • @22squish
    @22squish 4 ปีที่แล้ว +3

    great video tutorial but one massive problem - no static discharge protection - no ESD matt or grounding wrist strap - chances are you have damaged some part of the computer, and even though it still works now, it may fail in the future from the damage you do now.
    ESD is real, even though you can't see it or usually feel it and only a few hundred volts can damage or destroy semiconductors.
