Einleitung
Wenn dein Trackpad defekt ist oder entfernt werden soll, um besser an den Akku zu gelangen, dann ist diese Anleitung die richtige für dich.
Um das Sicherheitsrisiko zu verkleinern, solltest du den Akku deines MacBook Pro vollständig entladen, bevor du mit der Reparatur beginnst. Ein geladener Lithium-Ionen-Akku kann ein gefährliches und unkontrollierbares Feuer verursachen, wenn er versehentlich beschädigt wird.
Was du brauchst
-
-
Schalte deinen Mac ein und starte Terminal.
-
Kopiere den folgenden Befehl und füge ihn im Terminal ein (oder tippe ihn exakt so ein):
-
sudo nvram AutoBoot=%00
-
Drücke die Eingabetaste [return]. Wenn du dazu aufgefordert wirst, gib dein Administratorpasswort ein und drücke erneut [return]. Hinweis: die Return-Taste kann auch mit ⏎ oder "enter" gekennzeichnet sein.
-
sudo nvram AutoBoot=%03
-
-
In diesem Schritt verwendetes Werkzeug:Magnetic Project Mat$19.95
-
Mit einem Pentalobe P5 Schraubendreher kannst du die sechs Schrauben entfernen, mit denen das Gehäuseunterteil befestigt ist:
-
Zwei 6,2 mm Schrauben
-
Zwei 5,3 mm Schrauben
-
Zwei 3,4 mm Schrauben
Before any repair is carried out that involves removing the bottom case, the machines auto-boot function has be disabled. This can be disabled via the terminal command “sudo nvram AutoBoot=%00” once the repair has been completed the auto-boot function can be re-enabled via the vermin command “sudo nvram AutoBoot=%03”.
I recommend that you have an organizer tray for all the small parts, and label it in advance with the numbered “step” associated with each removal of screws and other parts. It really helped me when I needed to put everything back in reverse order, after the new battery is glued in place.
Finished the repair last week. Some key comments that helped me:
- Step 12, Robert
- Step 13, MikeG1
- Step 13, Rick Jaffe (take a photo when disassembling)
Also added some own comments on Steps 15, 18, 22

-
-
Drücke einen Saugheber vorne mittig auf das Gehäuseunterteil des MacBook Pro.
-
Hebe den Saugheber an, damit zwischen dem Gehäuseunterteil und dem Rahmen ein kleiner Spalt entsteht.
To replace the bottom just line it up just like it came from the factory. Make sure it clears the display connectors. And press firmly down until the clips connect to the bottom again.
-
-
-
Führe eine Ecke eines Plektrums in diesen Spalt ein.
-
Ziehe das Plektrum um die nächstgelegene Ecke und bis zur Hälfte der Seite des Gehäuses.
-
-
-
Wiederhole den vorigen Schritt auf der gegenüberliegenden Seite, indem du das Plektrum unter das Gehäuseunterteil steckst und entlang der Seite nach oben führst, bis der zweite Clip gelöst ist.
-
-
-
Stecke das Plektrum jetzt nochmal unter den vorderen Rand des Gehäuseunterteil, bei einem der beiden mittleren Schraubenlöcher.
-
Drehe das Plektrum kräftig, damit der dritte Clip gelöst wird, mit dem das Gehäuseunterteil am Rahmen befestigt ist.
-
Wiederhole diesen Vorgang bei dem anderen mittleren Schraubenloch und löse auch den vierten Clip.
My 3rd and 4th clips released simultaneously with clip 1 and 2.
Therefore I was looking to do something which had already been accomplished.
yeah be sure not to bend those clips by the display bottom. You pull towards yourself to get it off
-
-
-
Ziehe das Gehäuseunterteil kräftig nach vorne (weg von den Scharnieren), um dadurch den letzten Clip zu lösen, der das Gehäuseunterteil noch fixiert.
Difficult to explain clearly, but worked easily for me by gripping the adjacent bottom and top corners then pulling in opposite directions, rather than trying to grip the hinge corner which is too narrow to afford a strong grip.
This helped me. It needed more force than what I expected. Basically grab the corner with 6.2mm screw with one hand and the cover of that same corner with the other. Then pull the cover and push the laptop. Careful, it pops off with force!
I initially tried shifting the whole panel off the front after using the separating tool to make some space at the back where the hinges are. I only had luck when I pushed the panel back to it’s normal state and using the separating tool again to open the front, then getting my fingers underneath the slide it off the front was easy. I guess the lesson is to not use the separating tool to “push from the back“.
This step really through me through a loop. My last two MBP were a 2011 and 2013 and on those the bottom just lifted off when you removed the screws. The clips and this sliding lock design added in the 2017 model was frustrating the first time. I was following a youtube video first and he did not explain the sliding part at all. I should have come here first, this guide explains it pretty well. The second time I opened my 2017, I kept an “opening pick” between the bottom panel and the body on each side, and used my two smallest screwdrivers as levers in both “front” corner screw holes. Used the same method without the picks to put it back together at the end. Wayyy easier that trying to grip the panel or laptop body. Just make sure the screwdrivers/pins that you’re using as levers are small enough to be loose in the screw holes and have room to move
I used a pick underneath one of the back corners and nudge it (push down and towards the front - to get it off the hinge). This will make it easier to do the same for the other corner. The lower case will move off the middle plastic L-clips (which you will see after you inspect it.) Cheers! =)
I have found that your iFixit blue pry tool is excellent at giving me leverage to slide the bottom case forward to release it from the internal clips.

Entferne das Gehäuseunterteil.
I used the green prying tool in the air gap at the rear to nudge the bottom forward.
That is far easier and more reliable.
David. I agree. I've found the blue iFixit prying tool most helpful. I place it with the curve of the tool around the hinge and move the bottom case towards the front to release it from the slide-in clips. I consider myself to have pretty good grip strength but I have had some bottom cases that just wouldn't budge until I used this method. Scott The Mac Doctor
Like Dave and "themacdoctor" said, this job is MUCH easier if you use a spudger or similar tool to gently push the cover away from the air gap, at the rear of the laptop. Once you do this, you've loosened clips that are on the inside of the bottom case. This is much easier than tugging on the case itself.

Ziehe vorsichtig das große Stück Klebeband ab, das den Akkustecker am Rand des Logic Boards ganz nah am Akku abdeckt.
-
Entferne das Klebeband
once the tape's back in place, it doesn't look tightly attached. not sure, did I do something wrong here or it should be so.
The tape will likely not adhere as well as when it came out of the factory. This isnt an issue! As long as the tape is in place when the lower cover is put back on the device you should be good to go.
The underside of the tape is not uniform. Therefore, pay attention to which direction it is placed by looking at the underside when you remove it. Possibly mark one edge so that you can replace in the same direction during reassembly.
Mark one of the tape’s edges and, upon removal, stick it down with the same orientation. The first time I was inside the MacBook Pro (to upgrade the SSD) I failed to do this, and spent almost 30 minutes trying to get it back like it had been. Making a photo also helps.

Ziehe vorsichtig das kleine Stück Klebeband ab, mit dem der Stecker des Datenkabels an der Akkuplatine abgedeckt ist.
-
-
-
Mit der Spitze eines Spudgers kannst du jetzt die kleine schwarze Verriegelung umklappen, mit der das Kabel im Anschluss gesichert ist.
-
-
-
Schiebe das Datenkabel der Akkuplatine, aus seinem Anschluss heraus und trenne es ab.
-
Schiebe es parallel zum Logic Board in Richtung des Kabels.
The little tab that you pull back on, at least in my cable, was simple glued onto the rest of the cable. I tried to carefully remove the cable, and the tab came off. I did not have flat tweezers in the ifixit replacement kit and did not want to pinch the cable with sharp instruments. Therefore, be extremely careful when removing the tab as it is difficult to reattach the cable without it.
-
-
-
Biege das Datenkabel der Akkuplatine zurück, so dass es nicht mehr im Weg ist.
-
Wenn du den Akku austauschen willst, musst du wahrscheinlich dieses Kabel komplett entfernen und auf den neuen Akku übertragen. Trenne beide Kabelenden ab und entferne das Kabel behutsam. Achte beim Zusammenbau darauf, dass du das Kabel nicht mit der Unterseite nach oben oder rückwärts einbaust - beachte die Einbaurichtung in den Bildern.
The new battery I received did not come with the battery board data cable, so I had to remove the existing one and transfer it. The lock at the smaller end is the same mechanism as the one at the end shown in steps 11 and 12, but smaller (and harder to see. It helps to gently straighten the left end of the cable before trying to insert it in the end of the replacement circuit board.
I can corroborate MikeG1’s comment. My battery came without the long data cable as well. I had to remove it from the fried battery. Plastic lock tab mechanism on the ZIF connector is smaller. My inspection microscope helped to transfer the cable to the new battery board. Thanks Mike!
Likewise - the new battery came without a data cable. The cable was successfully removed from the old battery assembly and installed on the new battery, but it was tricky and nerve-racking (the cable is delicate and the connectors are very small) without instruction provided! The instructions should be updated to highlight the missing cable possibility, and provide information/illustration on transferring the cable.
In step 13, notice the amount of the data cable that sticks out of the connector. When moving this cable to the new battery, it is difficult to tell how far to push the cable into the connector or when it is fully inserted because the cable is so bendable.
AMEN!! This was the hardest part of the ENTIRE process! Hard to know when the small end of the cable was “fully” inserted. Cable is SOOOOO delicate!
my old battery was working but could not hold a charge very long so I replaced the battery and now my mac does not recognize the new battery. Thought it was a bad battery at first but I purchased a new batter and still the same problem, My mac will work off power outlet but does not register it has a battery at all now. I tried putting my old battery back on but i damaged the very small clip when i slid out the flex cable so its gone now. Could this cable be at fault? I don/t know what else it could be, i only messed with the battery.
I have this same problem! Did you figure out what the issue was? Do I need a new flex cable?
I am having the same issue as Leo. After install. Is there a way to identify the fault?
Although the rest of fixit manual on this is excellent, this step is woefully lacking and the fact that the replace “kit” doesn’t have the Battery Board Data cable included makes the replacement kit significantly lacking (especially compared to other kits and instructions I’ve used before from them)

Nimm einen T5 Torx-Schraubendreher und entferne die 3,7 mm Flachkopfschraube vom Stecker der Stromversorgung am Akku.
When the battery management “BMS” circuit board is re-installed, loosely install the two 3.7 mm screws, put a spudger on the left side of the BMS board to wedge theBMS board to the right then tighten the two 3.7 mm screws. The reason for doing this is that the two power traces on the board may not make physical contact with the battery connector (connector at where the spudger is on step 15). One clue that you didn’t have physical contact is if you reinstalled everything but there is no power unless the AC supply is plugged in (with battery meter on the top at 0%). This was what happened to me. The reason is that when you bend the battery connector in step 15, it’s no longer in alignment with the traces on the BMS board and hence, you have to shift the BMS board to the right to compensate. Once I did this, voila 64% power.

-
Hebe jetzt den Stecker am Akkuanschluss mit einem Spudger vorsichtig an und trenne dadurch den Akku ab.
-
Hebe den Stecker so hoch an, dass er auch wirklich vom Anschluss getrennt bleibt. Wenn es im Laufe der Reparatur versehentlich zu einem Kontakt kommt, könnte dein MacBook Pro dadurch beschädigt werden.
On disassembly note the position of the connector before you lift. It has two gold-plated connections on the underside. On reassembly these need to make contact with the matching battery board connectors. Bending the connector out of the way deformed it a bit, and on reassembly I could see that the connectors didn't align well with the board's connectors. I needed to adjust the battery board position to the left a bit by loosening the 3.1 mm screws in step 23. Possibly this could be the reason why some people report that new battery is not detected.

-
Mit einem T5 Torx Schraubendreher kannst du die beiden 2,1 mm Schrauben entfernen, mit der die Abdeckung des Trackpadkabelanschlusses befestigt ist.
When re-assembling do NOT tighten the screws of the trackpad to much. Otherwise the haptic feedback will be very less afterwards.
-
-
-
Mit einem Spudger kannst du jetzt das Flachbandkabel des Trackpads trennen, indem du den Anschluss gerade nach oben aus dem Logic Board hebelst.
This step needs a warning on it. I somehow angled my spudger too low and it pried the connecting port loose which eventually broke off the logic board. It ruined my computer. BEWARE.
Be very careful while removing it. May be bend and see what is coming off. If need be insert the spudger side ways and remove the connector gently
I used two spudgers, one on either side, to evenly lever the ribbon cable out of the slot.
-
-
-
Bereite einen iOpener vor und lege ihn etwa eine Minute lang auf das Flachbandkabel des Trackpads, um den Kleber zwischen dem Kabel und der Akkuoberseite aufzuweichen.
-
Wenn du keinen iOpener hast, benutze einen Fön zum Aufwärmen des Kabels. Das Kabel sollte warm sein, aber nicht so heiß, dass man es nicht mehr anfassen kann. Achte darauf, den Akku nicht zu überhitzen.
there's nothing in this manual about how to secure the cable while reassembling. I used insulating tape.
The air drier worked well for me, just need to be patient and and maintain a slight pull force to know when it's ready.
I did not need to secure the cable, the glue on it was still effective, apparently.
I really think the repair kit should have helped prepare for this. I neither have a hair dryer nor an iOpener! Fortunately, one of the included “plastic cards”, carefully wedged under the cable, with gentle pulling on the cable, helped release the cable from the battery.
I was also able to do this without heating the ribbon. Just used a wide spudger device and maintained gentle upward pressure while sliding the spudger toward me.
I used a microwaveable pet heat pad, but equally could’ve used an iron (with steam turned OFF) with a folded tea towel in between.
Kevin is correct. Use the plastic card. Lift the cable to about 45 degrees and the card to maybe 10 degrees. GENTLY pull up ribbon while wiggling the card left and right while simultaneously pushing under the cable. GENTLY!
Here don't need to warm up, specially if you are in a warm country like India
really minimal heat needed. i just used my breath

-
Pelle das Flachbandkabel des Trackpads vom Akku ab und schiebe es aus dem Weg.
-
-
-
Entferne jetzt die zehn Schrauben, mit denen die Trackpad Einheit befestigt ist mit einem T5 Torx Schraubendreher :
-
Zwei 4,3 mm Schrauben
-
Acht 5,8 mm Schrauben
Important note when you’re putting your laptop back together: while you tighten the screws, verify that the trackpad is not crooked in its slot. I didn’t, and there’s a tiny but noticeable misalignment between left and right. It’s not critical, just a pain to fix once you’ve put the cover back on.
important!!! read this
Do not forget to unscrew the two 4.8 mm screws
Which 4.8mm screws are you referring to? Are they pictured here?
Must say that you can avoid all these next steps and go to battery removal IF you are patient. Using 3-4 of iFixit's nylon spudgers, you can simply pry upwards on the cells and get them loose. The glue strips will start to loosen and then you can use one spudgers flat edge to cut the remaining adhesive. Continuing to apply upwards pressure throughout and working slowly, it can be done. I have done half-a-dozen this way. Was just too afraid to risk the adhesive remover getting where it shouldn't. Once the battery is completely out, you can pull or scape off the remaining glue-strips. My last one came off so clean, there was only about 1% residue.

Entferne die Trackpad Einheit.

Achte auf die sechs kleinen Unterlegscheiben (zwei runde und vier eckige), die sich auf der Unterseite des Trackpad befinden, sie sollten nicht verloren gehen.
Well… I lost one :) Anyone know where I could get a spare round one?
Hi Marvin, I expect you figured out why this is necessary as you continued. I seriously wondered the same. The center battery does not have a solid case beneath it. If you don’t remove the track-pad, you will get adhesive remover on the circuitry and possibly ruin the track-pad. :-)
When you screw the trackpad back, please remember that you are going to click on this thing. If you screw it so tight your trackpad will not be clickable anymore. If you screw it to lightly, it might fall off someday. I don't understand the balance between this. How do you screw the trackpad properly so you can still press on the trackpad and feel the click?
Sorry, I was wrong, the technology on this thing is superb. Once you turn on your Mac, the trackpad automatically transforms itself into a clickable aluminum pad. I don't know how that happens. But you can check it out yourself. If you shutdown your Mac, it is not clickable, turn it on, then it clicks!
The 4 copper wire coils you can see on the underside of the trackpad are responsible for the haptic feedback system Apple employ to provide the sensation of a "click" without the trackpad actually moving visibly. Obviously the coils need power to work, hence it only works when the machine is powered up.
I didn't lift the base as high as the photo, rather just enough to remove it while still almost flat (keeping washers in place)

Is this step necessary? I can’t perform this step as I am attempting to repair water damage and need to remove logic board & most likely replace the battery.
Macrepair SF - Antwort
@mac_medic You definitely don’t want the power coming on while the board is wet. In your case, I think powering on the machine to disable Auto Boot would do more damage than it prevents. I agree, skip this step and be prepared to disconnect the battery quickly if the laptop automatically powers on. Good luck!
Jeff Suovanen -
Thats right! You don't want power running while working on your logic board.

Tried this on a 2018 MBP 13” Touchbar (there’s no iFixit guide for this model yet). Need to replace a broken screen.
Luckily I managed to connect to an external screen (Cmd-Down Brightness to switch displays) and enter above command. Seems to work, but there’s another problem with this model - it powers up as soon as any key is pressed……. ffs <gnashes teeth>
Cool_Breeze - Antwort
I unscrew the battery first and wrap electrical tape over the logic board battery connector before attempting any repairs to the board. Haven’t had any problems yet and I’ve worked on about 10 of these models already. Also when you open the bottom case use a suction cup at the bottom and pull up then run a plastic spudger along the edges to disconnect the clips. Also only use a plastic spudger on the board. Saw a youtube video from a repair shop and he did not disconnect the power and used all metal tools during the entire process of removing the board. His last step was to disconnect the battery terminal.

If you have a damaged screen you can still use a converter from thunderbolt (USB 3) to HDMI and plug your Macbook Pro to your TV as monitor display. Just make sure to chose the right Source (HDMI IN) in your TV. I did it and to make it work I unplug and plug again in my Macbook and so I could disable the Auto boot

Hi. This does not work on 2018 13” MacBook Pro with Touch Bar. I did exactly this to disable auto boot. But when I check by using nvram -p it says: auto-boot true. Am I doing something incorrectly? I did everything step by step. Copied and pasted the sudo command, pressed enter and then entered my password. I have Big Sur 11.1 installed. Is there any other way since I need to replace the screen. Thank you. Adrian
Adrian Vizik - Antwort
Hi everyone. This is also a little pointless if you can’t see anything on the screen, and you don’t have a display adapter to USB C to display it. I agree with Brian about removing the back and disconnecting the battery cable before you even think about opening the lid of the MacBook. Applying the insulation tape is also a handy little tip that just makes sure there is no way to discharge from either the board or battery.
Roberto Enrieu - Antwort
running `nvram -p | grep 'AutoBoot'` in terminal verifies that it was accepted
result: `AutoBoot %00`
Marek Polák - Antwort
Running Big Sur 11.6.7 on a 2019 16" MBP, it's "auto-boot". So it's:
nvram -p | grep 'auto-boot'
to display the current state, the default istrue
- and then to change it,sudo nvram auto-boot=false
which turns it off.Ed Mechem -
This step is completely unnecessary if you follow the guide to disconnect the battery properly. Just put some tape between the battery and logic board connection to prevent it from accidentally touching and therefore powering on the laptop.
Grant Ormsby - Antwort
It took me a few tries to make this command work, as I was able to copy and paste the command into Terminal, but could not type in my laptop’s password. I finally typed my password into a text document, copied it (command C), and then pasted it into Terminal and it worked.

BEFORE YOU DO ANYTHING - CHECK THE BATTERY!
I-fixit sent me a bad battery, which I didn’t realize until it was already install. They sent me a new one, but I wasted hours uninstalling and reinstalled.
Get a volt meter and measure the voltage on the output of the battery pack. If it reads 0 V, SEND IT BACK. It should read over 2 V.

I've just received my replacement battery and it reads 0,042V between the two main connectors. Do you think it's dead?

When I did this from Terminal.app within Recovery Mode, the “sudo” was not recognized but I could invoke it without the sudo part. It seems to have been accepted when looking at “nvram -p”
johann beda - Antwort
When in Recovery Mode, you already have superuser powers. So you don't need to prefix commands with the sudo command to invoke them with root privileges; you already have them. Do a
pwd
(print working directory) after opening Terminal in Recovery Mode, and you'll see that you're in the root user's directory.Ed Mechem -
I received the battery kit for my 2018 MacBook Pro and as per the above comment from bcardanha - Oct 12, 2021, I checked the voltage on the pads marked + and - . It was zero volts so I panicked a bit.
I sent a message on the iFixiT Facebook page and I got no reply. I finally found the customer service email for Ifixit Europe and sent them an email voicing my concern as I was not keen to work for couple of hours just to discover that the battery is faulty. I had an almost instant reply on the email (kudos to them) and they adviced me to go ahead and install the new battery as the voltage measured when battery is not connected is not relevant.
I took a leap of faith and after two hours… the new battery showed 50% charge and everything seems to be working just fine. I am happy it worked.
Mircea Comanici - Antwort
After removing the old battery and installing the new battery I powered up the MBP before screwing the bottom on. I discovered the my keyboard would not function. It took a few hours of investigation and frustration that I discovered the track pad power ribbon had become partially dislodged from the trackpad. I was able to see that this through the little machined slot where the battery sat. I had to remove the trackpad to reinsert the power ribbon back into the connector in the trackpad. after reassembling and reinstalling the battery etc the keyboard worked. Just food for thought if your run into the keyboard issue.

Excellent instructions. I was able to follow and install the new screen. I recommend that you get a good set of tools before you begin. I started with an inexpensive repair kit bought online. The Penta and torx bits failed. I bought an IFIXIT kit with quality bits and I was able to do everything I needed.

If you're not running an admin account the sudo command won't work (which honestly, you should not be running admin). Rather than logging in to your admin amount via the OS, in the terminal type "login [admin username]," then the password and you'll be able to do the sudo command as described above. Once you're complete, type "logout [admin username]" and you'll be good to go. Obviously replace [admin username] with whatever the account name for your admin user is.

After sending this command in terminal when I checked what happens if I now open the lid, instead the screen lit slightly up (still black) then a battery symbol showing the charging state showed up.
Now, after replacement of the battery, this is all I get to see.
No reset of NVRAM nor PRAM helped.
Currently the new battery charges (58% atm) and it feels like it‘s mocking me.

Read the comments section at the bottom of the article before proceeding with the repair. It is unnecessary to remove the logic board. I actually removed the 45mm plastic bar to enable the cables to slip out then in. It is only there to frustrate repairers!
