      • Two 2.3 mm P5 Pentalobe screws

      • Eight 3.0 mm P5 Pentalobe screws

    • Wedge your fingers between the upper case and the lower case.

    • Gently pull the lower case away from the upper case.

    • Remove the lower case and set it aside.

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

  5. Passo 5

    • Remove the following screws securing the battery connector board to the logic board:

      • Two 2.8 mm T6 Torx screws

      • One 7.0 mm T6 Torx shouldered screw

    Editar

  7. Passo 6

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

    Editar

  8. Passo 7

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

    Editar

  9. Passo 8

    • 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.

  10. Passo 9 AirPort Board Assembly

    • Remove the single 2.7 mm T5 Torx screw securing the AirPort board to the I/O board.

    Editar

  11. Passo 10

    • 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 center socket.

      • 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.

    Editar

  12. Passo 11

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

    Editar

  13. Passo 12

    • Wedge a plastic opening tool between the AirPort board (side nearest the I/O ports) and the I/O board.

    • Gently pry the AirPort board upwards, but do not remove it.

    • Only lift the AirPort board as much as is necessary to get a grip on it. Lifting it too high above the I/O board may damage the board or the socket.

    Editar

  14. Passo 13

    • Pull the AirPort board straight out of its socket on the I/O board.

    Editar

  15. Passo 14 AirPort Board

    • AirPort board remains.

Hello

Is this showing how to upgrade a MBP min2012 from non-retina to retina display?

Hi, I've seen this Airport board teardown and the Early 2015 one. I think that Airport board is the same and I would like to replace my board with the Early 2015 one. Can you tell me if is it possible? Can be driver issues? Mac OS version issues? Thank you

Thanks for this. I just used this to upgrade my Late 2012 to AC.
