Will I fix a fried web camera with a new display assembly?

Hi there,

i think I accidentally fried my macbook’s the facetime hd camera circuitry. Apparently im stupid enough to remove and attache back the flex cable while the battery was still connected to the motherboard.

I did this because theres this horizontal lines in my macbook display, which i thought would be fixed if i reseat a few flex cables, but then i end up with a non-working camera. Now i have two problems…

If i replace the entire display assembly, will it fix the camera issue?

this is the replacement part:

Update (11/12/2020)

Hi Seff Ka,

I think it’s fried because the camera is no longer detected. Also, back when I try to put the cable back, I think I remember hearing a tiny click–im think I shorted something out. I tried to reseat it several times (with battery unplugged to the board), but no luck..

It is ok to manipulate those cables even on the running machine, if you careful enough. Clicks are also normal, or should I say necessary, part of resitting process, so again - nothing to worry just yet. If you worry - you will definitely miss something (you will not even see the difference with the naked eyes), and your goal at the moment should be to recheck everything, especially that small camera ribbon's connector that's connected to the motherboard. Disconnect the connectors, clean the contact plates (with old clean toothbrush etc), look for any sign of deterioration/dirt under a magnifying glass on both ends, and then, when you are sure that everything is in order, reconnect them again and hear all those clicks. If there were none - your connector is not resitted properly and that is precisely where your problem resides.

Yes, disconnected camera will not appear in the system. This is normal.

Minding that the camera does not consume power in the amount needed to actually fry it, or to fry the circuit, I would say that it is more probable that it's connector is not sitted properly.

Please refer to Dan's illustration (https://d3nevzfk7ii3be.cloudfront.net/ig...) for the assembly's connectors designation.

And, I can't see those horizontal lines you've mentioned on your pictures ))

No, I get it - you are trying to be a perfectionist, but spending 400 and something on the part replacement at this particular stage seems to me a bit unjustified, especially minding that you can get the second hand A1708 for that amount of money now.

Dear, oh dear! )))

OK let’s start from your header - yes, according to the link you’ve provided that particular assembly includes the FaceTime HD Camera but will the assembly fix your problem? That is the question ))

Can I ask why do you believe that you “fried your camera circuitry”? Normally there should not be a problem if you disconnect and reconnect your cables as you described, unless … there are quite a list of possibilities, almost none of which, unfortunately, could be fixed with just the purchase of new display assembly )))

I know it all does sound a bit anecdotal, but I would suggest you to carefully redo the disconnecting, verifying all the connectors and resitting them all again. Please share the results of your operation, and we will go from there. Resitting will definitely not fix those horizontal lines, for that you will need a new good assembly (which will be dead in the next few months), but let’s see if we can at least have a camera back.

Good luck.

I have the same issue, had a customer bring in his MBP that had liquid damage that had other issues, he took it to the apple store, got it back with no camera detected. now his problem became my problem as he brought it to my shop to repaired. it seems like the short just carries over to the logic board and to the camera. after testing with a new logic board and display both good parts are now bad since I tested with each of them one by one.
