2014年初 MacBook Air 13" 电池更换

你所需要的

  1. 2014年初 MacBook Air 13" 电池更换, 底壳: 步骤 1 中的图像 1,1
    在这个步骤中使用的工具:
    P5 Pentalobe Screwdriver Retina MacBook Pro and Air
    $5.99
    购买
    • 在开始更换之前,关机,合上屏幕然后把机器正面朝上平放在软面上。

    • 使用P5 Pentalobe 螺丝刀将底部的十颗螺丝移除,有下面两种规格:

    • 两个9mm 梅花形螺丝

    • 八个2.6mm梅花形螺丝

    Pulling the fan cable out was terrifying but you actually just pull on the cable itself. No way to get any leverage at the connector to dislodge it. Did come out easily but like I said, scared me!

    Do you have good Test Point Voltages? It appears there are silver colored Test points on the I/O Board. I am working on a water spill and trying to troubleshoot if both the I/O board and the Logic need replaced.

    It's probably not necessary but may be a little safer to completely discharge the old battery before replacing it.

    P5 pentalobe screwdrivers are too big! The correct size for these screws are p4 pentalobe. P5 pentalobe was just able, with difficulty, to turn some of the screws. If the screws were at all tight, my p5 was unable to get them out, and started to strip the screws. A p4 screwdriver fit better and removed the screws with ease. (I was using high quality Wiha brand screwdrivers.)

    William Skinner - 回复

    I had same experience (with MacBook Air 13-inch Mid-2012) … had to get P4, which worked swimmingly

    eric -

    Very simple installation. The screwdriver heads were exactly what we’re needed, one head for the outside case screws, the other for the screws holding the battery in place. The computer started right up. Now to see how the battery holds up, but I have a good feeling about this!

    Nikolay Andreev - 回复

    Comments that the P5 pentalobe are too large are absolutely spot-on. There is no way the P5 pentalobe bit I have will work with the MacBook Air without destroying the screws. Hard target search for P4 pentalobe bit in progress…..

    Bonjour j’aimerais changer mon SSD de 128 Go pour en mettre un de 512 Go. Je ne sais pas ce qu’il faut prendre car il faut qu’il soit compatible avec le macbook air A1466. J’aurais vu un Samsung Evo 970 500 Go mais si je ne me trompe pas, il faut un adaptateur.

    Merci pour votre aide.

    chicco33 - 回复

    oui, vous aurez besoin d’un adaptateur, pour completez le changement.

    The tool kit should include tweezers for re-inserting the battery connector.

    P5 pentalobe worked perfectly for me. Instructions were spot-on. Antenna connections were a bit fiddly to refit but got them in ok.

    michaelquinnell - 回复

    Maybe the problem some are experiencing is that the designations are confusing (blame Apple rather than iFixit). the P2 is also known as PL1. The P5 is also known as PL4. The P6 is also known as PL5. So it is possible to mistake the P6 (PL5) for the P5 (PL4), meaning it (P6-PL5) will be too big, while the P5 (PL4) will be just right. Sort of a 3 Bears explanation, but it is very confusing.

    Thomas Lewis - 回复

    To add to this. In searching for the P5 screwdriver to buy in UK, as far as I can tell, it is also known as

    Pentalobe 1.2(mm)

    also

    P4 = 0.8

    P6 = 1.5

    Just unscrewed the back case of MacBook Air 13” mid 2011, with no problems using Pentalobe 1.2

    nijafe -

    I have not replaced a display on the A1369 but have done many A1466 which is a newer 13” model. They seem really similar and its not clear why one needs to remove the logic board to remove the display. The antenna cables on the A1466 dont have to rest under the logic board but can be tucked in the hinge crevice. Cant this same thing be done with the A1369?

    Sean Love - 回复

    Did mine today - but new battery wasnt charging. Went back in and noticed the battery connector cable was not quite 100% “seated. It was sticking out by less than a millimetre! - you need to give it quite a firm push in to get it seated properly. Otherwise - all ok .

    Install went flawlessly. Only challange was reattaching blue tooth antennas. Those sockets are so tiny.

    Joel Sebastian - 回复

    Installation was a little challenging at first because the instructions on this site did not perfectly match my model (late 2013 to early 2015).

    Found this video on YouTube which described the procedure perfectly https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Lue6lVWh...

    Also the Ifixit kit I received was well put together with everything I needed and more. The calibration went perfectly and I am very pleased. Will buy again!!

    Donald Niamath - 回复

    Gently pulled out connector of old battery, then pressed and held the power switch for 1 minute. Unscrewed and removed the old battery. Pressed and held power switch for 1 minute again. I know from previous work that this helps drain charge from spontaneous recharging as the dielectric recovers. Gently “fine tuned” leads from new battery to connector till connector stuck out at right angle to the edge of battery. Held the battery by the edges and let the connector slide into the socket. Set the battery down and put the screws in all the way. Then checked that the connector was completely seated before tightening the screws. The laptop come on immediately and showed 98% charge and registered normal (checked in “About this Mac”. Very happy to this point. Now for calibration.

    IFixit just had me submit "my story" re. fixing my MacBook Air 2013.

    This repair was NOT difficult. The battery is enclosed in a plastic frame. It is NOT glued in like the newer models of Apple laptops. And unlike older laptops, the battery is not totally enclosed in a plastic housing. So once you remove the screws holding the batterie's frame, you can remove the battery.

    Follow the instructions. Read the comments. Also read the comments re. installing a new battery.

    Good luck. - Eric J.

    ECJohansen - 回复

    On the back of the laptop, notice that each screw is angled a little bit inward, aiming toward the middle of the laptop. Keep your screwdriver lined up with the screw (angled a bit outward as seen at 01:23 in the video: https://youtu.be/tToAwO6f-SY&t=83). This will help you get a good bite on the screw to get it out and avoid stripping the head of the screw.


    Use the same angle when putting each screw back in. If the screw is in line with its hole it should not feel like you are fighting to screw it in. If it does, check your angle and back up a little; you should feel the screw fall into line.

    There is a nub on the inside of the case which is attached to the battery. When you try to pull it open, it appears to be attached to the plastic casing of the battery, which sometimes splits. I gently unhooked the nub from the battery before removing the case fully. This seems to happen if the battery has suffered some drop damage (plastic parts broken around screws and parts of plastic frame split). Just an FYI in case your lower case doesn't pull away easily.

    Jeannie Crowley - 回复

    To add - the slim 1cm tab “nub” is on the centre of the back cover & fits into a hole in the battery frame. I ran my fingers around the whole of the cover to eventually here it click out.

    So this is a legit back cover for MacBook Air?

    What about disconnecting the battery?

    Luke - 回复

    I bought the part and tools from iFixit and followed the directions. The mechanical part went smoothly - maybe 10 minutes to disassemble/replace/reassemble.

    Getting Catalina (the current MacOS) to install was not working until I used Cmd-Opt-R (as noted in the OWC paper sheet that came in the box) which brought up the proper installer - I believe from a pre-prepared bootable SD card but it’s hard to say. From there the install succeeded taking ~1.5 hours.

    Beware that (a) the install requires a working internet connection for verification and updates, and (b) the system must have been running at least macOs 10.13 (High Sierra) before the install in order to have an EFI BIOS that recognizes the SSD.

    Lance Berc - 回复

    As noted by others, be a bit careful removing the lower case. There is an oblong black plastic locator very near the center of the lower case. Unless you gently pry the bottom cover pretty much straight up, you will break the ends off of the locater.

    BobY - 回复

    Thanks for the detailed photos. When repairing equipment, I don’t really like to disassemble plastic parts, they can be damaged, but your screenshots help a lot. For my studies, I am writing an essay comparing the reliability of laptops from various manufacturers and the complexity of their repair, maybe it will be useful for someone to check the essay for plagiarism here essay checker, when comparing different manufacturers, I understood why people love Apple so much. The minimum number of failures. Of course, repairing it in an official service is not cheap, but with the help of such detailed instructions, you can do it yourself and save a lot.

    The screwdriver bit to use on these case screws is not named, but I found that my "CR-V 1.2" did the job nicely.

    The driver for the screws inside the case are named, as "T5".

    Hi James,

    It may be that one of the pins did not lock in properly into the plastic housing. You can try pushing the corresponding wire into the connector housing to try to lock the pin in.

    If that does not help, please respond to my email. Thanks!

    Arthur Shi -

    When I pulled the plastic tab, it separated from the battery connector. However, I was able to remove the batter connector using a scalpel to separate the batter connector and disconnect the battery from the logic board without any damage.

    Annabell - 回复

    Well, I was trying to detach the battery cable from the logic board and the housing on the logic board that the cable slides into popped off with it. Is there anything I can do to fix this, or am I out one logic board? :-(

    The original battery plastic pull tab broke off when I tried to pull it towards the front of the Mac. How do I get to disconnect the battery connector now?

    shukry.saw08 - 回复

    My connector would not release as shown, using reasonable force, so I unbolted the battery to slide it back, then was able to slide the connector back. Ultimately, it popped up on its own - suggest review of this process. No drama, nothing broken, all good.

    The center screw on my Macbook Air 6,1 is slightly longer than the 6.3 mm screws. John H. is right: when putting back together step 3 is easier and safer to do before step 4. In order of reassembly: Step 5, 3, 4, 2, and 1.

    • 当拆解电池时,注意避免挤压触碰四个裸露的锂聚合物电芯

    • 从靠近主板的一边抬起电池将电池从上盖取下

    • 在你使用的电池之前先 校准 它:

    • 把电池充满到100%,之后继续保持充电至少两小时。然后停止充电,开始像日常一样使用它来慢慢消耗电量。当你看到低电量警告时,保存你没做完的工作,同时就让笔记本开着,直到它因为电量用尽而进入梦乡。再等待至少五个小时,之后把它完全充满到100%

    • 如果您在安装新电池后发现任何异常或问题,则可能需要重置MacBook Pro的SMC

    Two Questions and a Comment:

    1) “Allow the battery to drain overnight” - Should the computer shut down automatically (during the first drain, as well)? If not, what percentage should the battery reach before charging it to 100%?

    2) While the battery is draining, can I use the computer?

    When installing the new battery, I found it much easier to insert the battery connector before screwing in the battery.

    Paul Larkin - 回复

    When reinserting the battery, plug in the battery connector before screwing the battery into place. Some wiggle room is required to reconnect the batter and tweezers will help with the plugging in.

    Andre Clement - 回复

    Check to ensure that all 5 holes in the battery enclosure are drilled through. One of mine wasn’t and needed a little push through before setting the battery in place.

    Also, as noted above, definitely re-connect the cable before screwing in the battery!

    Les Klassen Hamm - 回复

    agree on reconnecting before securing battery.

    David Covington - 回复

    Followed this guide step by step for a successful battery swap thanks iFixit!

    FYI, as someone else pointed out, if you try removing the battery connector after you have installed it for one reason or another the pins pull out of the plastic connector piece (the adhesive does not hold). You have to push the cable back into the plastic connector so the pins are all the way back in.

    Kent O - 回复

    I did all of that BUT while I tried to pull the plastic battery connector in step 3 , instead the whole connector got out of the board and I can’t insterted back, I don’t know what to do now, any advice ?

    As others note on step 4... For reassembly, place battery in area loosely, and reconnect. Then shift the battery fully into position. Eyeball it to roughly get it into the right place, but don't stop there. Take a tool like the spudger and place the pointed end in the screw holes one by one. Shift battery until line up looks good with a bright light. I put back the screw in middle of battery, then the others, etc.

Thanks for this guide! From ordering the parts to doing to work, it was a super easy and fast process! May have been nice to see some mention of the different sized screws in various locations, and how to calibrate the battery once done with the install. Either way, awesome tutorial!

@ejhalsell Good point about calibration—that’s been added to the final step now. There are measurements for every single screw though, so I’m not sure what more you’re looking for there.

This is great, but, in calibration, what do you mean by “before using it, allow it to drain overnight”? How do I drain it without using it?

brendan kelso - 回复

@bpkelso Calibrate it before you start using it the way you normally would use it. ;) Until it’s calibrated, the battery charge percentage can be very unreliable and you may not get a true “full” charge out of it.

Received my battery Friday. Opened the box that night and proceeded to replace the battery. I initially didn’t find the 5 sided screwdriver. Bummer. I emailed customer support, and decided to buy one off Amazon. The next morning; just before my morning walk, I decided to look one more time. Bingo, the 5 sided driver was sitting in the corner of the box.

Just 15 or so minutes later, I had removed and replaced my very dead battery in my Mac Air(early 2014). I recalibrated my new batter; allowed it to drain to under 10%, then recharged to battery to 100%.

I’m getting 8 hours a charge. Before the replacement, If the power adapter slipped, my Mac would immediately go dark. Not any more!

It’s so weird moving around with my Mac without the power cord. It’s literally been years.

Thanks Ifixit!

Purchased a replacement battery in October of 2020. Wrote a positive review; easy to install, renewed battery life, etc. Just over a year later and wow. Battery gets to the 38% mark and it drops to 7% in an instant.

Your new battery will last a year or more than it’s back to buying a new/old battery or a new laptop.

Best regards,

Korneel Boonen - 回复

Hi Korneel,

For a battery replacement, you need both P5 and T5 bits/drivers. The P5 is for the rear case, and the T5 is for the battery assembly. If you purchase the battery fix kit directly from iFixit, the kit will come with the needed tools.

Arthur Shi -

I read the instructions from IFIXIT. Printed them, and set them on my desk. The new battery arrived, it also was placed on my desk.

I spent the week with my son, wife and granddaughter.

I came home, battery was drained. The tools came with the battery. I followed the directions as I remembered them. Reassembled and followed the battery calibration directions.

I had it recharged, it held the charge for 24 hours @ 100%.

It states moderate skill level needed, I would think it is less difficult, closer to easy. My background is an engineer, automated machinery, programmer, and debugger, happily retired, but the directions were/are great. No reason for anybody to pay another to do the job. It will build confidence and let all DIY folk to realize that repairs are easy.

There is a stiff plastic sheet over the whole battery. Should I remove that? It doesn’t seem to be a thin glued on film on the cells like the instructions mentioned.

Lauren Woomer - 回复

Thanks. Very clear instructions. The only thing I might add is that reattaching the battery cable is best done before the battery is all the way in. That means being a bit more careful about handling the battery as you are doing it. I found there wasn't enough room with the battery already in place to get the proper leverage to push in the connection, which is very tight. Otherwise, it was all good. Got my Air up and running again. Thanks!
