    • Three Pentalobe screws secure the battery to the upper case. They can be removed with this special driver.

    • If you don't have a Pentalobe driver, a 1.5 mm flathead screwdriver can be used in a pinch. Be sure the head of your flathead screwdriver fits snugly across two of the five "points" of the screw head before trying to break the screw free, as a loose fit will easily strip the screw head.

    • If the head of your screwdriver fits too loosely, find a bigger bit and file it down until it fits snugly before proceeding.

    • You do not necessarily have to follow steps 3-7 to remove the battery in order to replace the hard drive. However, it is recommended to remove all power sources from electronics before working on them.

    • Use the flat end of a spudger to pry the fan cable connector up off its socket on the logic board.

    • It is useful to twist the spudger axially from beneath the fan cable wires to release the connector.

    • The fan socket and the fan connector can be seen in the second and third pictures. Be careful not to break the plastic fan socket off the logic board as you use your spudger to lift the fan connector straight up and out of its socket. The layout of the logic board shown in the second picture may look slightly different than your machine but the fan socket is the same.

    • Release the tabs on each side of the RAM chip by simultaneously pushing each tab away from the chip.

    • These tabs lock the chip in place and releasing them will cause the chip to "pop" up.

    • After the RAM chip has popped up, pull it straight out of its socket.

    • Repeat this process if a second RAM chip is installed.

    • When reinstalling your logic board, don't forget to apply a new layer of thermal paste.

Hello,

Do you know the purpose of the component that is not welded in the lower right corner of the red square on the picture of step 12: http://d3nevzfk7ii3be.cloudfront.net/igi...

Someone tells me I can not have my backlight re-working without this component, but I think it simply does not work because of a liquid.

Any ideas ?

Thanks in advance

I just replaced the logic board, and all went fine, as far as I can tell. However, my new battery is still in transit, i.e: I do not have it at hand. My question is, how critical is it to have a battery in this model....given all the "do not remove battery or else" warnings. Is it OK to try to boot it just with the regular power supply? I do not want to fry my new logic board, so I need some informed opinion on this...

I greatly appreciated your comment in Step 11 saying: “Apple sticks a small strip of clear plastic with adhesive applied to one side to the logic board behind the camera cable connector to keep it in its socket“.

My problem was that I had an old Macbook Pro whose camera cable was out of its socket and I could not get it in because this piece of plastic was in the way. I had no idea what it was. It was not clear to me if it was an IC or some other important component. Your comment clarified what it was and its purpose.

Pushing down on it at one end did not achieve anything, so I have just lifted it up and off the board using a small scalpel blade.

I will use some tape to hold the cable connector in its socket.

Thank you

Hi,

Your article does not mention the WiFi (wireless) or Bluetooth cable connector.

Does WiFi connectivity come into the logic board via the camera cable, or some other cable?

Thank you
