    • Remove the following ten screws securing the lower case to the upper case:

    • Two 2.3 mm P5 Pentalobe screws

    • Eight 3.0 mm P5 Pentalobe screws

    • Throughout this repair, keep track of each screw and make sure it goes back exactly where it came from to avoid damaging your device.

    If don’t have one of those neat project mats, then you can use small pieces of flattened blu-tack to hold the screws. If you arrange them in the shape of your mac book cover, and put the screws down methodically, you can get a one-to-one mapping of the screws to the correct screw holes.

    Or you can use an ice tray where you put the screws and the parts in separate bays in the same order as they come in the instructions.

    This is great! I used a small magnetic white board, and wrote on it to identify the parts as I went. This whole process, from the fast shipment to the great instructions to the complete, high quality, tool kit has been great. I’m typing this comment on my resurrected laptop. Thank you! Sue

    It would be a good idea if people recorded in the comments which screws go where so that, if someone lost their screw positions, they could recover them from the comments.

    • Remove the plastic cover adhered to the battery contact board.

    The replacement cover doesn't seem to have the formed pads attached. I re-installed the original.

    • Use tweezers to remove the small plastic cover located near the bottom right of the battery connector board.

    Is adhered to screw beneath, so lift firmly and slowly.

    when doing this with metal tweezers as instructed in the video, it was difficult to get off and apparently while i was trying to do it, the tweezers went too far under and i believe made contact with the screw underneath? there was a zzz noise, an orange flicker and a little stream of smoke that came out. i freaked out and put everything back together to see if the laptop even still worked, it turned on and everything but died right away (i drained it before doing the repair anyway, so i was surprised it turned on at all).

    i finished the battery repair and did several other things while in there. i have charged it all the way as recommended and will use it later on to see how everything is, im hoping that it’s a okay, but could someone explain to me what happened and the possible consequences?

    • Remove the wide head 6.4 mm T6 Torx screw securing the battery connector to the logic board assembly.

    When reinstalling, be careful that the board lines up correctly and is completely seated in order for this screw to thread properly.

    • Carefully lift the battery connector board up off the logic board.

    • It is recommended to bend the battery cables just slightly, to keep the board suspended up above the logic board and out of the way.

    • Do not fold the board completely over, or crease the cables, as this may damage the battery.

    • Grasp the Interposer with tweezers.

    • An interposer is the name for an interface that links one electrical connection to another. In this repair, it is the board connecting the battery to logic board.

    • Lift the Interposer off the logic board and remove it.

    • Removing this board will ensure that the battery remains disconnected throughout your repair, preventing your computer from accidentally powering on. It's also a good idea to take it out so it doesn't fall out unexpectedly.

    How can I remove interposer I m not able to remove it

    Raunak - Responder

    you must lift it absolutely vertically, or it fouls against the locator pin in the corner- you can easily get the impression that it won’t come over the end of this pin- almost like it’s rivetted in. it isn’t. get a good grip on it with the tweezers in the centre hole & one of the sides, & lift it STRAIGHT up.

    I would recommend to use plastic tweezers in order to reduce risk of damage.

    Martin Sippel - Responder

    Second that. If you have thin heat shrink tubing, form some over the tweezer tips. If the tubing is thin and small enough in diameter you’ll see the serrations of the tweezer tips.

  10. MacBook Pro 13" Retina Display Early 2013 Display Assembly Replacement, iSight Camera Cable: passo 10, imagem 1 %32 MacBook Pro 13" Retina Display Early 2013 Display Assembly Replacement, iSight Camera Cable: passo 10, imagem 2 %32
    • Use the tip of a spudger to push the iSight camera cable connector straight away from its socket on the logic board.

    • It is recommended to carefully push on both sides of the connector to "walk" it out of its socket.

    This was the hardest part of the repair for me. The iSight cable was really lodged in its socket. "Walking" the connector as the guide suggests -- i.e. pushing on each side alternately at a 45 degree angle (with more force than I expected) -- eventually worked.

    • Move the iSight camera cable aside.

  12. MacBook Pro 13" Retina Display Early 2013 Display Assembly Replacement, AirPort Board Assembly: passo 12, imagem 1 %32 MacBook Pro 13" Retina Display Early 2013 Display Assembly Replacement, AirPort Board Assembly: passo 12, imagem 2 %32 MacBook Pro 13" Retina Display Early 2013 Display Assembly Replacement, AirPort Board Assembly: passo 12, imagem 3 %32
    • Use the flat end of a spudger to pry and disconnect the three antenna cable connectors from the AirPort board.

    • The three cables are coded with black sleeves of different lengths. During reassembly:

    • Connect the long-sleeved cable to the socket closest to the ports.

    • The short-sleeved cable connects next to the screw.

    • The remaining cable has no sleeve, and connects in the last empty socket, next to the fan.

    The long-sleeved and short-sleeved antenna cables are switched compared to this guide, on my Macbook Pro A1425. Maybe note which order they are in on your machine, since apparently they differ. http://i.imgur.com/r9g9ZXS.jpg

    Will Bradley - Responder

    Be very careful with these, I wasn't and two of the cables detached from the connectors!!

    Felix Waller - Responder

    Likewise, the antenna connectors on my Macbook A1425 Late 2012 Retina were not in the order as described in this guide. From the fan side the connectors should be - no sleeve, long sleeve, short sleeve

    smurad - Responder

    As two other users have mentioned, the long-and short-sleeved cables for my late 2012/early 2013 A1425 were not in the order mentioned in the guide. If the laptop is positioned with fan in the upper left corner, the order (left to right) is short sleeve, long sleeve, no sleeve. If it is positioned as it is in the photo with the fan in the lower right, the order (left to right) is no sleeve, long sleeve, short sleeve.

    Katherine Agnew - Responder

    I also found my cables were not as described in the guide. They were as @kagnew described.

    • Move the antenna cables aside, clear of the AirPort board.

    The display assembly has a metal retaining clip attached to the airport cables. I didn’t notice how this was positioned during disassembly, and it wasn’t mentioned in the guide. When I was reassembling the device, I found that it fit perfectly over the Torx T8 screws holding the display to the case. Attaching it here holds the airport cables nicely in place and out of the way.

    • Grab the black pull tab secured to the display data cable lock and rotate it toward the DC-In side of the computer.

    • Pull the display data cable straight out of its socket on the logic board.

    • Do not lift up on the display data cable, as its socket is very fragile. Pull the cable parallel to the face of the logic board.

    Can this display fit in 13inch 2012 unibody?

    • Use a pair of tweezers to lift the rubber hinge covers up off the right and left display hinges.

    • Remove the two 3.1 mm T5 Torx screws securing the aluminum hinge brackets.

    I ended up stripping one of these out and had to use a T6 and some delicate pressure to get it out. Be careful.

    The T6 and a lot of downward pressure ended up doing the trick for me. YMMV

    • Remove the four inner 5.3 mm T8 Torx screws (two on each side) securing the display to the upper case.

    There is a retainer for the airport cables that goes beneath the left and center screws.

    My screws were covered with a thin tape, much like scotch tape. I used tweezers to remove it.

    • Open the MacBook Pro approximately 110 degrees, and place it sideways on the table, as shown.

    • While holding the display and upper case together with your left hand, remove the remaining T8 Torx screw from the upper display bracket.

    • Be sure to hold the display and upper case together with your left hand. Failure to do so may cause the freed display/upper case to fall, potentially damaging each component.

    • Remove the last remaining T8 Torx screw securing the display to the upper case.

    • Grip both halves of the device, one in each hand.

    • Gently push forward on the bottom half of the device to detach it from the display assembly.

    • Carefully set each component aside, making sure to set down the lower half keyboard-side down.

Conclusão

To reassemble your device, follow these instructions in reverse order.

perfect tutorial! I fixed my screen completely destroyed falling down from my hands while a was falling asleep. Bought a new one on eBay (not original but perfect with the exception of the case slightly different in color and "texture".

Thanks iFix IT!

This walkthrough/guide is PERFECT! I barely tinker with electronics, but the high cost of repair made me want to try to install a new display assembly myself. Bless you, Sam Lionheart!

Virgil - Responder

This worked really well. The only issue I had was uninstalling the camera. The instructions to pull the data display cable parallel to logic board made sense in step 14. Unfortunately I didn't understand the similarities in step 10. Is it possible to repair the camera now that the slot is completely broken?

D Sh - Responder

Walk through worked perfect. Did it twice. The first time was just to make sure that wasn’t anything disconnect or any wires damage. The second time was to replace the screen. Works perfect.

Hi,

can I replace an damaged display of a MacBook Pro 13” late 2013 with a display from the early 2013 version?

I compared the high-def pictures of each cable connection and they seem to be identical, or am I wrong?

Thanks for the help.

Cheers

Hans Wurst - Responder

Hi there! Unfortunately as listed on the product page, the Late 2013 13” display is not compatible with the Early 2013, only the Mid 2014.

Can a late 2012 MacBook Pro 13” Retina display be used with an early 2013 MacBook Pro 13”?

Laurie Kirchmeier - Responder

I really don’t know the answer, I am new to fixing EVERYTHING so my learning curve is steep. I successfully replaced my screen but I was careful to read what fit. It’s been awhile now. Good luck finding your answer
