If you change your bluetooth card, its MAC address will change. Since pairing is done by MAC, you will need to re-pair all devices.
My Wifi failed, "no hardware found", but the Bluetooth still worked. I replaced the board, but still no dice. Turns out it was the cable. Lesson learned: try the cheaper part first! Not a total loss, now I have Bluetooth 4.
hi there. Where did you get the cable. I'm looking everywhere, but I only see cables with 3 antenna connectors (but I see 4 connectors on the board) & they all have the isight wire (which i need as well).
Also did you find a good tutorial on how to replace the wire rather than the board?
any help here extremely appreciated!
Hello,
I was able to complete this repair in less than 40 minutes, thanks to the author and his easy-to-follow guide!
Regarding Step 10 - I found it easier to use a Phillips #000 screwdriver (instead of the recommended #00 size) for the two “orange” 3.1 mm Phillips screws, as it did not slide off the tiny screw heads like the larger-sized screwdriver would.
This is an amazingly succinct and clear at of instructions! My Hat is of to you!
I discovered that the flat wifi cable was not properly plugged in, so I plugged it back in and went no further! Yea it worked!
