Einleitung
Spare Geld und tausche nur das LCD statt der ganzen Displayeinheit aus. Diese Anleitung ist nicht für entspiegelte Displays geeignet.
Was du brauchst
-
-
Klappe das Display zu und platziere deinen Laptop umgedreht auf einer flachen Oberfläche.
-
Drücke die gerillte Seite der Entriegelunsvorrichtung nach unten und greife den herrausragenden Teil, um ihn nach oben ziehen zu können, bis er vertikal nach oben zeigt.
-
-
-
Fasse die durchsichtige Kunstofflasche an, ziehe den Akku hoch und aus dem Unibody heraus.
-
Wenn die Lasche eingedrückt ist, dann verriegelt sie den Akku.
Do I need to wait for the battery to charge completely before using the computer (while plugged in)?
No. You do not need to charge it completely before removing it.
-
-
-
Entferne die folgenden acht Kreuzschlitzschrauben, mit denen das untere Gehäuseunterteil befestigt ist:
-
Eine 5,4 mm Kreuzschlitzschraube
-
Drei 14 mm Kreuzschlitzschrauben
-
Vier 3,5 mm Kreuzschlitzschrauben
Hi, My name is Jess I need help asap I accidentally dropped my macbook Pro and i cant find the silver screw for the top left back side, Does any one know if I can replace it with an eye glass screw?? If you can help at all Please e-mail me at Chambliss_jess@yahoo.com thx please help me my bf is going off... ;(
The fixit PH00 is the wrong screw driver for this entire job. It did not fit in the screws, it was too pointy and caused screws to be rounded off.
-
-
-
Hebe mit beiden Händen das Gehäuseunterteil vom oberen Gehäuse an und entferne es.
About midway along each edge is a snap. To release each snap, gently slide the flat edge of a Spudger under the lower case, then lift the lower case away.
-
-
-
Ziehe das männliche Ende am Stecker des Kamerakabels gerade aus seinem Anschluss zur Öffnung des optischen Laufwerks hin und trenne ihn ab.
-
Hole das Kameradatenkabel aus seiner Führung im optischen Laufwerk heraus.
I have a problem with previous made unprofessional teardown of this mac, and the port that the camera cable is connected to, on the m-board, is cracked, because somebody pulled it straight up .. can someone please, share an idea about the way of fixing it, or maybe a name of the part i need ?
-
-
-
Entferne die beiden Kreuzschlitzschrauben, mit denen die Halterung des Kamerakabels am oberen Gehäuse befestigt ist.
-
Trenne die Halterung vom Kamerakabel ab und entferne sie vom Computer.
For reassembly, it would improve the instructions to note the exact orientation of the camera cable, as well as the LVDS cable, in these steps (7-10). This avoids confusion as to where those cables go when the display is reattached (working steps 11-13 in reverse).
As viewed from the orientation of the laptop at this point (looking into the motherboard from the underside), these cables are routed ABOVE the mounting plates for the hinges.
Viewed from the front of the machine (as it would be sitting on the desk in front of you during normal use), they are routed BELOW those plates.
-
-
-
Fasse die Plastikzuglasche an der Verriegelung des LVDS-Kabels und drehe sie in Richtung der Seite mit der Gleichspannungsversorgung des Computers.
-
Ziehe den LVDS-Stecker gerade aus seinem Anschluss heraus.
-
-
-
Entferne die 7 mm Kreuzschlitzschraube von der Halterung des LVDS-Kabels.
-
Hebe die Halterung des LVDS-Kabels aus dem oberen Gehäuse heraus.
-
-
-
Entferne die beiden äußeren 6 mm Torx Schrauben, mit denen jede Seite des Displays am oberen Gehäuse befestigt ist. (insgesamt vier Schrauben)
Ccouldn't make it past step 10 as the two T6 screws on the right stripped. I was using the correct tool, correctly seated, but the screws were simply unwilling to turn and the screw head gave out before they turned at all. The ones on the left came out alright, but there seems to be some type of thread glue on them. Recommendations on how to break that seal without stripping the screw heads might be a good idea. Otherwise - be forewarned.
I have the same problem with step 10. Can't remove the screw on the left, it is all damaged.
-
-
-
-
Öffne das MacBook Pro, so dass das Display rechtwinklig zum oberen Gehäuse steht.
-
Stelle das MacBook Pro wie gezeigt auf einen Tisch.
-
Halte das MacBook Pro mit einer Hand zusammen und entferne die 6 mm Torx Schraube von der unteren Displayhalterung.
Unlock without removing them , the two remaining center 6mm Torx screws securing the display to the upper case.
-
-
-
Entferne die letzte 6 mm Torx Schraube, mit der das Display am oberen Gehäuse befestigt ist.
One of the Torx screws holding the Display in place failed to come out. I tried too hard and it shredded the head of the screw so there was no physical leverage to the screw driver, so I left it to avoid any further damage.
So instead I removed ‘not’the torx screw on the computer but the one on the display itself. There are three on the inner part of the screen, two facing the display and the third on the other side. It sled out easily.
It only added a couple of minutes to my time removing it.
But a word of caution, you must remove the long plastic housing that holds the cables for the iSight and display, just be gentle and slide it off trying not to snag the cables, it should come off easy.
-
-
-
Fasse das obere Gehäuse mit der rechten Hand und drehe es leicht in Richtung Oberkante des Displays, so dass sich die obere Displayhalterung von der Kante des oberen Gehäuses löst.
-
Drehe das Display ein wenig vom oberen Gehäuse weg.
-
Hebe das Display vom oberen Gehäuse weg, achte dabei darauf, dass sich keine Halterungen oder Kabel verfangen.
If I purchase a MBP 15' for parts that has a good top case, LCD and Glass, could I stop at Step 14, replace the entire top case and reverse from Step 13 to put it back together? Or do I need to proceed with steps 14 to 21, loosening the glue, lifting the glass, replacing the LCD?
-
-
-
Reinige vor Beginn der Reparatur das Displayglas mit einem angefeuchteten fusselfreien Tuch. Dadurch bleibt der Saugheber besser haften und du kannst hinterher Verunreinigungen leichter erkennen.
-
Fange in der rechten oberen Ecke mit dem Erwärmen des schwarzen Randes an. Stelle das Heißluftgebläse auf niedrige Stufe.
Another caution is needed - the heat gun is capable of discoloring the LCD panel (giving uneven coloration) if it overheats. This is possible on the low setting. Proceed cautiously, heating in increments until the glass releases.
I was wondering the same, is absolutely necessary to disassemble the screen to change the glass? Can I jump to step 21?
To change just the glass I used a hair dryer it gives off enough heat to do the job. Stand the computer up on its cover with the key board standing up.start at a corner heat the adhesive as you go along. I Put credit cards in as I went along so the adhesive doesn't stick again. take your time . Its easy.
-
-
-
Wenn die Scheibe warm genug ist, dann befestige einen kräftigen Saugheber in der rechten oberen Ecke der Glasscheibe.
-
Ziehe die Ecke des Displayglases langsam und vorsichtig von der Displayeinheit hoch.
Sufficiently heated is a meaningless phrase here. Is it two minutes? Three? Fifteen? An hour? I have tried doing this for increasing amounts of time while avoiding doing damage to the machine, and nothing is working. Sufficient heating needs definition.
Hi Keith, the key here is that you want to warm the adhesive that's spread thoroughly behind the masked-black area of the glass around the screen to release, but not put enough heat at the rubber gasket that seals the closed top lid to the base. Too much heat, too soon, will deform the rubber. Too much and you'll never get the glass to release. The 2x that I have done this, however, even with sufficient (and significant) heat, I remember the glass taking a surprising amount of leverage to pull clear. A tactic: using your heat gun warm all the sides of the display from the front, in a circulating/racetrack fashion - about 20 rpm. After 30sec, focus on the left and top sides, seesawing from bottom left, to top left, to top right, and back. Do that at the same pace, about 5-10 passes. Then spend about 10 sec waving over the whole top left corner. That should get enough heat to enough places to help the glass separate to start placing picks, and you can continue to heat the margins as you progress.
-
-
-
Hebe die Ecke des Displayglases vorsichtig an, bis du einen Spudger zwischen ihm und der Displayeinheit einsetzen kannst.
-
Heble das Displayglas vorsichtig mit dem flachen Ende des Spudgers aus der Klebeverbindung zum Display heraus.
-
Heble das Glas einige Zentimeter von der oberen rechten Ecke aus an der oberen und seitlichen Kante hoch.
Be patient and work slowly or else you will crack the glass like me.
I can not get the glass to come up despite two tries and dicsoloring the LCD with too much heat. Why can't I get the glass to budge at all?
It is better , instead of using the suction cup , to use small flat end spudger . The suction cup should be used first to detach the window from the gasket , not furthermore as it may brake the glass.
I didn’t have large suction cups and the small ones didn’t work for me. Instead, I used an opening tool to pry up the glass slightly and got a guitar pick under it. Then I slowly worked the pick around the top three sides of the glass, heating sections of glue as I went.
I’ve managed to do it using hair dryer on max. First corner was though and took a lot of time to lift it. I decided to heat not only a corner but whole length and then it came off. I’ve put so much heat that was afraid I’ve damaged LCD, but it works fine. As BillyRachel1 said: patience is the way. In order to assemble it back I used old glue heated again. It’s easy but takes time.
Note: Don’t do this at home if you have cats otherwise you going to spend next hour or so trying to remove their fur from between glass and LCD. It’s because they all levitate after using hot air and just wait to stick to the screen again.
To be honest hardest thing was replacing clutch cover, took me so much time and I eventually cracked it.

-
-
-
Nachdem nun die obere, rechte und linke Kante der Glasscheibe abgelöst sind, kannst du die Oberkante der Glasscheibe langsam anheben und vom Display wegdrehen.
If you will be reusing the glass, with new adhesive, then you will want to remove the old adhesive. This is a bit of a pain, as alcohol doesn't work, and you need to be careful to avoid damaging the black screen border, which is black paint on the back (adhesive) side of the glass.
To remove the adhesive, note that it is actually a thin film with rubber cement on both sides. First, use a razor to carefully pull up one corner of the film and gently peel it off of the glass. If you are gentle and slow, the underlying adhesive may also come off; if not, then rubbing with your finger or a hard rubber eraser will do the trick.
If this is a rubber cement based glue, then would rubber solvent / thinner like N-Heptane help the removal process without damaging the black paint ?
Don’t remove glue. Just reuse it by heating and sticking it again.

-
-
-
Schiebe die Verschlussabdeckung zur rechten Kante des Displays hin.
-
-
-
Beginne ganz links und rüttle die Verschlussabdeckung entlang ihrer langen Achse, während du sie gleichzeitig vom Scharnier des Verschlusses abziehst.
-
Arbeite von rechts nach links und löse weiter vorsichtig den Verschluss entlang der Unterkante der Displayeinheit ab.
-
Hebe die Verschlussabdeckung von der vorderen Blende ab und lege sie zur Seite.

Amazing and wonderful. With a hairdryer, a loving wife who knows how to clean glass much much better than I do, the tools listed here and some patience, I now have a wonderfully ugraded 2008 unibody MBP with a high resolution display (wasn't offered until 2009). My display issues are gone as indeed my vertical banding was caused by a broken display.
Does one have to buy the LVDS display cable or can the one that is in the macbook already, be used?
I'm by no means an expert, or even vaguely knowledgable :), but i would assume you can just use the old cable, if it's just the actual LCD itself that is damaged and the cable seems fine.

Great guide, i thought it was going to be tricky, but following this made it easy! I was actually replacing the display rear panel and the glass - my LCD was fine - so i had to improvise slightly taking hinges etc from damaged panel, but this guide made everything seem pretty straightforward, thanks guys!
THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU for saving me from a $600 Apple Store repair bill! The instructions were excellent and I felt very comfortable working my way through the repair.
I lucked out getting the glass off. I heated the upper right corner until it was warm to the touch, attached the suction cup and... pop. The glass came off instantly in one piece. Unfortunately, I broke it trying to get the camera bracket off, but it looked like shite after being knocked around for seven years and I was planning on replacing it anyway. I also replaced the LVDS cable along with the LCD and bezel. The display looks as good as the day I took it home from the Apple Store back in 2008.
I'm giddy that I have my laptop back. Tablets are all the rage nowadays, but they really do have their limitations. You need a proper keyboard to do any serious work.
Thanks tons for putting out these repair guides and the great tools.
Thanks a lot : it is not so difficult provided you follow gently step by step the Ifixit guide .
I used a heat gun which has 15 levels of heat and only needed the no 4 or 5 maximum .
Had to glue again the frame of the macbook pro ( hinges are attached to it and it was broken ( bended) : I used for that rectavit 70 pro ( black)
https://www.klium.be/rectavit-g70-pro-he... which is better than the original glue to fix the frame inside the top case , it takes 24 hours before getting hard enough to use the hinges again .
MAcbook Pro late 2008 needs a new flash drive to be fully operational again !
The A1286 has no Access Door.!!
I actually can see no sign of the battery!...

I assume you have the newer model, with the built-in battery. It's still removable with tools, but these are the wrong instructions for that model.
lgc90 - Antwort
when will there be a guide for the other unibody macbook pro. that does not have an access door?
irishking - Antwort
Is there a manual to show, how disasembly the display, i mean, after step 5, to check the display between lcd and aluminiun back case?

On other guides you state the height of the HD that can be supported, e.g. MacBook Pro 15" Core 2 Duo Model A1211 Festplatte tauschen , I have read ( but have not confirmed ) that the uni-body MacBook Pro can be fitted with the 750GB and 1TB 12mm drive from Western Digital.
Can you confirm this?
Many thanks in advance.

My display and aluminum casing has separated.
I don't know if it just snaps back together or does it need to be glued.
I dropped mine on the carpeted stairs and the display still works.
I'm hoping I can just snap it back together and that no plastic pieces or teeth of the snapping
portion have been broken........

When you say "left fan" is this "left when looking at the logic board after turning the computer over and looking it up opening it up" or "left when sitting at the computer keyboard and typing on it"?
thvv - Antwort
We always use left and right in reference to the computer when you're using it.

Directions were great and the worn dc in board was replaced. The hardest part of the procedure is disconnecting the data display cable. A better description of step 21 is to slide the connector parallel to the circuit board towards the outside corner. Reconnecting correctly took several tries.
I used the tip of the spudger to nudge the corners a little at a time to seat the connector.
The ribbon connector for the keyboard has to be inserted all the way before seating the retaining cap. It took me three tries . First try power button did not work second try numbers keys did not work.
Thanks for the directions ...could not have done it with out them!!!
