      Well holy shit that like was 100% unexpected
      I just want to let you know this Louis, I'm 29, have a Bachelors in M.E., met some random guy who's name I never got working in a Menards hardware store. Long story short, I almost cried when he encouraged me to "Get out of your head and into your heart."
      Now I'm working towards an associate in EET to hopefully transfer into a bachelors. Just had a soldering lab last week, and the only reason I had any confidence in my ability to pick it up is because, I'm trying to have more confidence in my own abilities (that's another story), AND I have your videos on in the background, listening to your advice, watching as you use the "PROPER" amount of flux.
      Even in ways you don't mean to, you make a difference man, just by being so vocal, and being who you are.
      Stay safe and healthy out there man.

    I have not listened through a full advertisement on CZcams in ages... Until today. It's genuinely refreshing, sadly, to hear an honest advert. No hidden lies, no hidden costs, just straight up "these bits are free, info here, and for this we have a paid option, you're welcome to try either/or".
    If I used an Apple product I'd purposefully botch a repair just so I can get more into this ecosystem of knowledge. Alas, I'm on the sideline. But enjoy the content all the same.
    Louis, thank you. And you and your team keep up the amazing work.

I found your channel a few years ago when attempting to repair my 2013 MBPr and you had a video that walked me through the process, which was crucial because taking apart all the pieces, glue, and tiny connectors was sketch AF. Years later I am still using the 2013 macbook as my daily driver and it still runs great. Much appreciated!

DEPLETE your battery at first first, even if it's a 2013 MB Pro. Then charge it and see what electricity does for it. The keyboard stopped working but I was able to use an external keyboard and it works just FINE. Be the king of your own MacBook like Lois said.

    Great video. Also... there are a lot of very professional people who take extreme care in their craftsmanship within pretty much all of the trades. Plumbers, machinists, electricians, etc. Imo a majority (at least that I have worked with) are this way. When I fix something I don't just want it to be as good as new, but to be unlikely to ever fail in the same way it failed the first time. I'm a tool and die maker, and like with all the trades, you live and die (well get rich or go broke) by the quality of your work.

I would love it if you'd recommend a few actually as it's seems like unless you are doing a lot of gaming/video editing/graphics ect ect there's no reason you couldn't make a fairly high spec laptop last a for a decade if it's easy to repair.

    Your point about the world becoming a place where nobody cares to do things properly anymore is something I've been feeling for a while. I think it has a lot to do with our society and economic system not rewarding people for their effort, combined with a pervasive cynicism about the future. It hangs over everything these days. It's hard not to be affected by it.

    I'm working on two older MacBook pros, from 2008 and 2010, and it is amazing how the computer evolved year to year. Those old machines are quite usable with some upgraded ram and ssd

      Kenneth, I have just spiffed up a little my mid-2007 MacBook pro, but sink me if I can find any way to install an OS later than the Snow Leopard disk I have. Been days at it. Apple now makes installers available, but not a one will work for me.

      @@kenneth.topp., thanks for reply. Yes. El Capitan was the last update I was running when I swapped out the HD. Still have that drive squirrelled away. New SSD takes all the disks and updates that I have up to Snow Leopard, but the install files I have downloaded, including and up to El Capitan, just will not install. I have encountered and then read confirmation about a known difficulty with a command line install from Snow Leopard, and so I tried my installs from all the versions I have up to and including plain Leopard, but nada. I don't remember how I got El Capitan on there previously, years ago.
      Have you done your installs yet?

    I do not understand why connectors are corroded. I thought that all connections these days were gold to gold. No? And while you clean or replace the cable, would not that corrosion be on the female connector, as well? Must be more difficult to deal with that area, yes?
    Thanks for all your sharing, Louis. Yer a beacon.
    Edit: After thinking about it some, I am supposing that corrosion is coming from the copper metal layer under the gold plating, somehow.

    Every time I see corrosion on any cables I don't bother cleaning it just chuck it away, not expensive just replace it & check the trackpad connector for damaged or corrosion give that a clean. Replacing the trackpad connector is more of a challenge thou :) Did you know just about 90% of any brand laptop that doesn't power up is usually damage to the power connector, the one component that's get's plenty of wear & tear or abuse due the frequency of use.
