Thank you for mentioning which screws go back where. I completely forgot to pay attention when I was taking them out!
My cable covers (1:30 in this video) aren’t T5 screws. They seem to be T4.
Very very helpful. Thank you.
Can you please do the new 16” MacBook Pro as well? Thank you so much
Wow ... might as well just build a new machine ... :D . Thanks for the video!
Could you so kindly help explain the easiest way to put the display back on, I had the hardest time getting it off and still not sure how exactly I was able to slide the display off
Hi, do I need an anti static wrist band if I'd like to attempt opening the bottom pan to take out off the battery?
Nice video thanks
Hey, thanks for the video.
But could you please mention what type of screw bits I need for the different parts as you go a long. You mentioned for example T5 when removing the battery but not in the moment after when you removed the “cable covers”.
Also it would be a more informative video if you told us what part you ware working on while taking apart the computer, for example in the begging when you said “we ware about to disconnect the battery”, it would be really helpful if you did the same with the rest of the parts.
Very professional. very good🍎🍎🍎🍏🍏🍏
I realize this is going to be probably a silly question, but I've watched a few of these breakdown videos and I can't figure out where the Main SSD Hard drive is? I need to unplug it to and connect it you my current laptop, see if it works at all, and if so to try to do some light data recovery. On my 2012 I could immediately and had no problem removing it. But no idea on this 2018.
There is not a separate SSD on this model. It is part of the logic board.
So I'm not totally crazy... How can someone approach a recovery if they can't independently access the harddrive?
@@joshhayes8240 You'll need to take it to Apple.
@@PowerbookMedic Wow. Apple's the only company whose products (computers) I buy that consistenly alientates their customers just a bit more each time. I couldn't believe my 2020 Macbook Pro (since I accidentally torched my 2018 with a liquid spill, which is why I'm inquiring about hard drive recovery), didn't even come with the full power cable. Just a truncated version that plugs directly into the wall....
@@joshhayes8240 Same thing happened to me. Apple held me hostage and said that data recovery would cost from $700 and possibly thousands. Just to recover some personal photos. It's horrible! I was trying to figure out how to access the SSD myself and thankfully you had posted this so I could save more time and money. I was about to buy more screwdrivers to keep taking my Macbook Pro apart.
For A1990, is it so that to replce the battery, we have to take the main board out?
Yes. It is recommended that only a professional replace the battery on this model as it is built into the top case. It is not easy to change this part out.
is there a reverse video for putting it back together?
play the video in reverse
My 2018 Macbook pro 13 inch has a problem with the keyboard backlight , the keyboard works perfectly but after i replaced the screen the keyboard light does not comes on anymore, is there a flex cable for the keyboard lights? even if i acces to the keyboard setting it does not shows me the option about the keyboard lights
And all I needed to know was the battery which you did not cover... :(
was waiting to see how to take apart the battery...still waiting
Once the main board is removed you can dislodge the batteries carefully. It's conveniently glued to the underside of the keyboard. I removed the trackpad too and then slid a long sharp flexible blade under each battery in turn. Long slow and laborious if you don't do this everyday.
Thank you so much for this.
Chris Glad we could help!
Please help me I have MacBook A1990 no power in
Does this work for opening the back cover of 15 inch 2017 macbook pro?
Would this have the same internal screw with the 2019 model, (A1990 (EMC 3359))?
What point do you take the hard drive off or is it possible in this model
What type of screw you use for the back cover? Thanks
P5 pentalobe
What is the most common issue of MR942LL/A MBP? Which MBP 15” should I purchase? I completely stocked because I really want a Device has last longer not like the 2013 models and the earlier ones. Thanks
qwert andrew There is a recall on keyboard failure right now. But other than that I haven’t seen many issues with the touchbars.
Hi I removed the wrong flex cable when unplugging the battery, now it won’t stay down/plug back in. Anyway to fix or repair it my self or will I need to take it to a shop?
Jack Vevers It sounds like the cable connector is damaged. You will probably need to take to a repair shop that does micro soldering on Logic Boards to fix it.
So when Apple replaces my top case (for the keyboard) they also replaced the touchbar but not the power switch? I’m curious because since I had it serviced the touchbar is sometimes unresponsive and I’ve never had issues.
Michael Hidalgo Yes, the power button is separate from the top case. The touch bar is included with the top case.
Powerbook Medic that doesn’t make sense. I guess I now know why my the Touch Bar is unresponsive now.
what size are the screws? 1.2mm ?
You should really zoom in more for each cable removal. It really isn’t clear from the video what direction I should be applying force in order to remove the cables. No wonder the one guy broke the battery connector.
what are you using to open the back? what size screwdriver please?
They're pentalobe. It's a good idea to get a set of pentalobe screwdrivers in Apple's commonly utilized sizes. They are cheap and commonly available.
Or you have to find the hard disk
beautiful Board
Just taking the back cover off one of these things is a huge pain in the ass. No thanks.
i just disassembled my macbook and then put it back together (with 1 missing screw) when i realized i can just replace the keys instead of the whole keyboard.
Great video! Name of songs please?
The songs are from the album: Hot Pickles. By Steve steverton and the pickle bros. You're Welcome lol.
And here I was worried this would be difficult.
Good video, but the volume is a bit too soft.
Is the SSD built in?
Yes. It's part of the logic board.
Removing speaker and microphone cable could use a bit more explanation. I think I broke the connector to the motherboard
For those reading, the cable pops UP from the connector, which is soldered to the motherboard
I broke mine too 😔
@drarum1 what did you do?
Sh*t, I disassembled one of this for cleaning and thermal paste replacement, and it won't turn on back any more...
I was more than careful with each ribbon cables and every connector.
Is there any trick to power it back on after power outage?
Edit:
There was necessary to plug in the wall charger after battery disconnect, right after the Macbook started and worked as it suppose.
Thanks for the info. Was about to go mad.
I have a problem with my MacBook Pro 13 Model A1706 year 2016 computer, can I change the motherboard? what does it involve? I don't care to lose the data, I saw how to disassemble the computer it seems obvious to me that I have to change the whole motherboard, you can give me some suggestions?
Mauro Downie Yes you can change the motherboard if you are sure that is the problem. It is one of the first things that comes out of the machine. However, you will also need to change the power button/thumbprint reader as well. It is programmed to the Logic Board.
@@PowerbookMedic really strange what happened, I tried to restore with many keyboard functions, it seems that the keyboard does not work, not even wifi practically the computer seems completely finished to complicate the situation also the FileWault that made the situation really impossible . I saw your tutorial just for that specific model how to disassemble and reassemble the new motherboard, please continue to put new tutorials are very informative and well done.
6 Screws, Dude!
He didn't say how many screws there are. He said 'remove the Pentalobe 5 screws' ... using a Pentalobe P5 driver.
Don take it apart...pit it in the trash! ;-)
