13' Apple Macbook Air Take Apart ( Model A1466 )

[ldboehm]

Thank you!! You helped me disasemble my Mac to clean due to a water spill. Cleaning it with Isopropyl Alcohol and a toothbrush worked and it's alive again!

After almost 10 years of reliable service my Mac Air started acting erratically. I had trouble powering on, powering off and then once on the screen would go blank on and off. After watching video I started disconnecting and then reconnecting cables checking performance after each disconnect/reconnect. I did battery first and then SSD drive - no luck. The third disconnect - i/o flex cable from logic board to the i/o board did the trick. Mac is now working perfectly. Thank you Powerbook Medic! Prior to looking at your video I had never even taken the back off my Mac.

Love buying parts from you. PBM has helped me help my friends save on repairs/replacement three times now. 2009 MBP, 2011 MBP, and now a 2013 MBA. Repair, Reuse, and don't Replace.

Back when there was an actual heat pipe connected to the fans.
Good old days.

Just purchased mine used for 350 bucks. With a fresh install of macOS catalina it tuurns out to be a lot more powerful than other laptops I could find for 350$. The build quality is out of this world not to mention the battery that even at 1000+ cycles can get me 4-5 hours of light to moderate usage and now I totally get the hype around apple products.

What screw driver do u use to take the battery out?

My Macbook Air's soundcard is not detected anymore. I tried anything. I see there is no soundcard module, it's part of the logic board 😞

What are the names of the tools you’re using?

You opened back cover wrongly, broken middle black plastic jack
