Oil damaged MacBook with working trackpad and battery.

I got oil damaged 2 years ago. I took it to shop where I bought it from. It was too pricy to fix, so I took for another private company who made diagnostic and cleaned it from oil. Only for 35 GBP. Now I got money for my Birthday present and I decided to invest it in fixing MacBook.

When I turn on device it takes about 5-10 sec. to ask password. Sounds are on and trackpad works perfectly. Battery as well, because I can charge my device. Usb is working perfectly.

BUT only some of keys on the keyboard are working and some of not. Examble for Caps lock is not working. Delete-key doesn’t work, but space key button works well.

This is how iSmash company explained me the result of diagnostic:

“After opening device sow that none of liquid damage indicators are red but on motherboard is visible oil fumes residue, under track pad and battery was still wet oil which was cleaned, possibly keyboard stopped working because that oil hit daughter board under track pad which is connecting both track pad and keyboard with motherboard.

So question is do I need to change keyboard as well, because logic board will be anyway changed? What else should be fixed?

I would just replace the full uppercase 13” MacBook Air Upper Case & Keyboard - US, Apple P/N 661-7480 its a lot less work and a recycled part is about the same cost as the keyboard alone.

Here’s the guide you’ll need to follow MacBook Air 13" Early 2015 Upper Case Replacement

You shouldn’t need to replace your logic board. After taking things apart, using a loadable sprayer like this one True Power Rechargeable Sprayer loaded with 90% reagent grade isopropyl alcohol. working over a sink use it to wash the logic board after removing the heat sink. That should clean off any oil on the board. Using the sprayer to wash the other parts you should be able to reuse most of the parts. Let the logic board and parts air dry on a sunny sill.

You’ll need to apply a fresh coat of thermal paste, don’t over do it and stick with the standard [produit lié absent ou désactivé : IF179-010]
