    Such a great video! Mine’s about 7 years old now and runs great, just needed a good clean. This was the BEST video and didn’t make it seem so intimidating as others. Thanks for the clear and easy walkthrough!

    Great video, clear step by step. I have a question: you attached the old SSD in the new logical board then you make new installation. Why? Can we save the data in the SSD?

    Great video! Any recommendations on which replacement logic board to purchase?
    (My 2012 or 2013 MacBook Pro 13”, with i7, is non-responsive. No lights or fan sounds. The logic board has some white oxidation, which was removed with a touch of alcohol and compressed air).
    Is the problem likely only the logic board?

    Great video. After replacing the motherboard, my keyboard no longer lights up. The rest works perfect. Is there a connector just for the keyboard lights?

    great video. I am trying to replace my board but they told me that I will need some kind of codes to install all application and main MAC OS. Is it right ?

    Hi,
    Do you think i can upgrade my macbook air mid 2013 with a 2015 or 2017 logic board ?

      Yes, the 2013, 2014, 2015 and 2017 logic boards are all interchangeable.
