    • Before starting this procedure, you should disable your Mac's Auto Boot feature. Auto Boot powers on your Mac when you open the lid, and may be accidentally triggered during disassembly. Use this guide to disable Auto Boot.

    • If your MacBook is running Big Sur v11.1 or later, disabling Auto Boot may not work. You can proceed normally, but make sure to disconnect the battery as soon as you're inside.

    • Completely power off and unplug your MacBook before you start. Close the display and flip the entire laptop upside-down.

    • Use a P5 Pentalobe driver to remove the six screws securing the lower case:

    • Two 6.8 mm screws

    • Two 5.3 mm screws

    • Two 3.4 mm 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.

    • Apply a suction handle to the lower case near the front-center area of the MacBook Pro.

    • Lift the suction handle to create a slight separation between the lower case and the chassis.

    • Insert one corner of an opening pick into the space between the lower case and the chassis.

    • Slide the opening pick around the nearest corner and halfway up the side of the case.

    • This releases the first of the hidden clips securing the lower case to the chassis. You should feel and hear the clip pop free.

    • Insert your opening pick once again under the front edge of the lower case, near one of the two centermost screw holes.

    • Give the pick a firm twist to pop free the third clip securing the lower case to the chassis.

    • Repeat this procedure near the other of the two centermost screw holes, popping the fourth clip free.

    • Pull the lower case firmly towards the front of the MacBook (away from the hinge area) to separate the last of the clips securing the lower case.

    • It may help to pull first at one corner, then the other.

    • Pull to the side—not up.

    • This may require a lot of force.

    • The edges of the case can be sharp, so grip the sides carefully.

    Be mindful of finger placement as the inside edges of the case are very sharp and may cut you.

    Shane Samuelson - Responder

    literally just cut myself

    Jaiden Daniel Arnett -

    I used the suction cup to pull/slide the lower case from the back clips

    Richard Dunn - Responder

    This is probably the most difficult step. It doesn't come easily, you have to be careful but very firm and apply plenty of force. The edges are somewhat sharp, but I didn't cut myself. Just don't slide your fingers along the edges. I had the best luck orienting the computer in portrait (like the pictures) and pushing on the front right edge of the main chasis with my right hand fingers while pushing the opposite direction on the bottom lid with my left hand fingers (place your fingers right in the crack of the hinge).

    • Remove the lower case.

    • To reinstall the lower case:

    • Set it in place and align the sliding clips near the display hinge. Press down and slide the cover toward the hinge. It should stop sliding as the clips engage.

    • When the sliding clips are fully engaged and the lower case looks correctly aligned, press down firmly on the lower case to engage the four hidden clips underneath. You should feel and hear them snap into place.

    • Gently peel back the small piece of tape covering the battery board data cable connector.

    • The tape is integrated into the ribbon cable and will not detach completely. Simply peel it back enough to access the connector.

    • Use the tip of a spudger to flip up the small black locking tab securing the cable in its connector.

    • Locking tabs on ZIF connectors are fragile, so be gentle when using the tip of the spudger.

    • Disconnect the battery board data cable by sliding it out from its socket.

    • Slide parallel to the logic board, in the direction of the cable.

  12. MacBook Pro 13" Two Thunderbolt Ports Late 2020 Trackpad Replacement: passo 12, imagem 1 %32
    • Fold the battery board data cable back and out of the way.

    • If you're replacing your battery, you may need to completely remove and transfer this cable to your new battery. Disconnect both ends and carefully remove the cable. During installation, be careful not to install it upside-down or backwards—note the orientation in the photos.

    Ciao Stefano! Grazie per il commento. Infatti c’è sempre una certa tolleranza fra il cacciavite e la testa delle viti. Quindi è possibile che un cacciavite più grande o più piccolo sia più “comodo” in certi casi. Buona riparazione!

    • Use a spudger to gently lift the battery power connector, disconnecting the battery.

    • Lift the connector high enough so that it stays separated from its socket.

    • If it accidentally makes contact during the course of your repair, it could damage your MacBook Pro.

    Hello, I have damaged this connector and it is now loose with the logic board. It is possible to replace this connector?

    Thanks

    deejaygav - Responder

    Please save yourself a pile of money and read this before doing this step: I bricked my MacBook by not being extremely careful and making sure to NOT touch the connector together as I took it apart. Ouch ouch ouch. 😫

    • Use a spudger to disconnect the trackpad ribbon cable by gently prying its connector straight up from the logic board.

  18. MacBook Pro 13" Two Thunderbolt Ports Late 2020 Trackpad Replacement: passo 18, imagem 1 %32
    • Prepare an iOpener and lay it on top of the trackpad ribbon cable for about a minute, in order to soften the adhesive securing the trackpad ribbon cable to the top of the battery.

    • If you don't have an iOpener, use a hair dryer to warm up the cable instead. The cable should be warm, but not too hot to touch. Be careful not to overheat the battery.

    The iOpener is not really needed for this step. The ribbon cable peels off without any bending with just a light pull.

    Mark O'Neill - Responder

    I concur with Mark. Just a light pull, easy does it.

    Mine didn't come off easily, it definitely needed heating

    • Carefully peel the trackpad ribbon cable up off the battery, and push it out of the way.

    • Do not fold or tear the cable.

    • Remove the trackpad assembly.

    • You'll need to swing the display open slightly to remove the trackpad.

    • Take care to feed the trackpad ribbon cable through the MacBook Pro's frame without snagging.

    • Be sure not to lose the six small washers (two circular and four rectangular) resting on the underside of the trackpad.

    • Make sure your new trackpad has a ribbon cable installed before reassembly. If necessary, transfer the old cable, or install the one your new trackpad came with.

Conclusão

Compare your new replacement part to the original part—you may need to transfer remaining components or remove adhesive backings from the new part before installing.

To reassemble your device, follow the above steps in reverse order.

Take your e-waste to an R2 or e-Stewards certified recycler.

Does anyone knows, if I follow this procedure carefully just to clean the inside of the trackpad, if it will void my warranty? Or there isn’t any way for Apple to know that I’ve done this?

Simos Kondylakis - Responder

Thanks for this guide, it was excellent – easy to follow. I used the iFixit Essential Electronics Toolkit for the first time to do this and the box lid with moulded grid proved very useful for keeping the screws mapped to where they belonged in the laptop.

I would suggest adding that the laptop must be connected to power to restart it after the repair. Pressing the power button to no response induced a small panic but plugging it in brought it right back.

Mark O'Neill - Responder

Is it completely necessary to disconnect the battery? 8 - 14 is it absolutely necessary?

ROGER GIRALDO LOVERA - Responder

I followed direction and it was very good but some how my keyboard stop working. I looked at every thing that I did and nothing came lose. The touch screen on the keyboard is working and I see light under it but no typing off the laptop keyboard, Any suggestion?

Bijan Hafezi - Responder

I'm about to attempt this repair, but I've heard about Apple disabling features when replacing with any hardware that was not originally tied to the device, especially with iPhones. Is this also the case with the 2020 M1 13" MBP? Would a trackpad replacement trigger the T2 chip?

Dani - Responder

You shouldn't have any problems or lose features after replacing the trackpad. If you wanted to replace the Touch ID power button though, for example, the replacement would be tied to another logic board—meaning you'd need to replace them together.
