MacBook Pro 15" Retina (Mid 2012-Early 2013) MagSafe 2 DC-In Board

我的问题

My magsafe was burnt due to not unplugging the charger when 100%.

我的修理方法

Everything was easy to find thanks to great photos in the guide. Dropped the screws underneath the logic bosrd a couple of times but I carefully shaked them out and back at it.

我的建议

As ZIF cables can be tricky to put back in place. (Especially the big one for the keyboard) Take a picture of how it looks before you unplug it so that you can see how it looks when it works.

I didn’t, and had to reopen the bottom of my computer.

我的问题

The battery was not charging, the green led sometimes was on, sometimes off. With the new magsafe2 board the battery begins to charge, the led changes from green to orange. But there is one problem. When the computer is turned on, the led turns off and the computer remains working maintained only by the battery. It isn't possible to charge the battery and use the notebook at same time. If the computer is turned off, the battery is charged.

我的修理方法

I installed the new board following the instructions, without problem.

我的建议

No. I sent the notebook to a technician, but he doesn't know yet what happened. If someone can help, would be great.

我的问题

MacBook Pro was no longer charging, there was charring. Something was wrong with my original MagSafe connector.

我的修理方法

It went great! The iFixit walkthrough was very helpful. I have done this sort of thing, so I was comfortable with it.

我的建议

Print out the instructions, and then tape the screws to them with clear scotch tape. You can even sort of tape them in the layout arrangement in the picture so you know exactly how to put them back!

MacBook not charging

我的修理方法

The repair went pretty smoothly. The trickiest part was removing the keyboard ribbon cable. The instructions were not clear to show the actual location of the section that you have to flip up. With patience it wasn't too difficult to figure out. The project tray came in very handy to place parts and screws in order of disassembly making reassembly simple.

我的建议

Use the project tray to sort and keep parts in order and carefully make note of which screws go where particularly with the fans and the logic board. Also when re-installing the logic board make sure none of the ribbon connectors are trapped underneath it before you screw it down.
