![Repair: MacBook Pro 15, Late 2013 Battery Replacement [ENGLISH]](/img/n.gif)
I know it’s been four years since this video, but you just saved me from having to buy a new computer here in 2024. Thank you for this easy to follow video!
Will be attempting to do this recently on my laptop, idk how well the battery life is but im sure it could be better in 2024 lol
I just followed this video also but did not used the acetone. Just used a wide spudger and jammed it in there
Just came to say that this tutorial saved me. It was the only reference I used, and it was flawless. This is years old, but you're still helping people in 2024 brother 🤘
This is about as close to perfect as it gets -- not a lot of chitchat and everything is clearly visible. This was a lot easier than I expected. Thanks!
Thank you so much man..!!! I changed the battery on my MacBook on my own and it saved me a ton of money and a lot of time. Such a straight to the point video plus you covered everything there was to cover. Keep it up my man 👍🏼
Did the battery cycle counter automatically went back to zero?
I did it!!! Been meaning to do this for years & this worked perfectly. Thanks! My 2015 MAC continues to function 100%
Love how detailed this video is... thanks for your efforts on this.
Thank you!
The most detailed and safest tutorial out there. Many thanks, my Macbook is up and running again.
Best instruction video on replacing a battery i've ever seen! Awesome work, thanks!
The best battery replacement video manual on this model. Plain and easy. Aceton works just fine.
Thanks, dude. You saved me time and money)
Thank you!
Great video! Saved me a bundle. I like the idea of aluminum foil if you are going to use acetone to protect the screen. I also used paper towels between the foil and case to absorb any acetone if it did leak. Also I used a glass eye dropper instead of a syringe so make sure not to puncture to old battery. I also slightly elevated each side of the case so the acetone would flow towards the adhesive. Use the acetone sparingly and work the batteries free with a old thin credit card. Remember, safety first.
CZcams is my "go to" for every project that I have, and have never done. And it's because of guys like you sir, that I look like I know what I'm doing! I can't thank you enough for your clear, concise, and straight forward tutorial! If anyone is contemplating this job, Just follow this video, and I'm sure you'll be as successful as I was!!!!!
I love CZcams for the same reason. I love creating videos and I love watching other people's tutorials.
This was a great video, thank you! And the comment from Guy Henry about the different size of the screws on the case was very good also.
Great video Rick. I had been following another video to install my battery and this is by far the best. I could not get the track pad to work and followed Ricks video and I had not pressed the clip down on the track pad cable. I thought I had damaged the cable but voila when I pressed the clip down it worked.
Glad you were able to get it working!
First class. We watched the video three times, collected all of the materials required for the job, and successfully replaced the battery in my A1502. It took about three hours. Thank you!
Glad to help!
Dear Mr. RickMakes, your video is just amazing, thank you very much for sharing.
I just did the job and my Macbook its running like new.
God bless you.
Thank you!
Because of this video I've been successfully swap my battery. Thank you Rick, GBU.
This was so helpful, thanks! I decided to use GOO GONE instead of acetone. I figured it was less hazardous and worked very well. I just sprayed it on the edge of an old store loyalty card (don't need them since I just punch in phone number at store.) I learned from two of my mistakes: forgot to push down on the little black lock lever when plugging the trackpad cable in. I assume that's why the trackpad and keyboard didn't work when I fired it back up! Fixed it. Also, I mixed up the case screws and realized some are shorter for the back edge (One wasn't going in far enough bc it was a longer one.) Finally, the battery calibration tips saved me one more internet search.
They don't make it easy with the screws.
Awesome! Thank you for the video. Finally fixing my 2015 MacBook Pro 13”. Ordered a new top lid with a new display since mine was cracked, a new battery and a new bottom lid due to the battery imploding and bending it. Thank you so much for the video, saved me from buying a new laptop.
Hey, just wanted to thank you for your efforts! Because of your videos I was able to upgrade SSD and replace battery on my MacBook. Cheers!
One of the best video for changing the Mac Battery! Much appreciated!
Thank you so much for this how-to video. When I ordered a replacement battery I had no idea what was involved in changing it. Your video was a Godsend - literally. You made it a piece of cake. Thank you very much!
Thank you so much! I successfully replaced the battery. This guide was spot on!
Great video. I manage to change my battery successfully in about 1,5h including a lunch break. Thanks!
I followed this tutorial and replace mine and it was so precise and helpful, thanks so much
Best video I've seen for this battery placement. Honestly better then iFixit ... I literally followed this video and only this video and replaced my battery on my 2013 retina Mac in just under an hour. My only comment is that he didn't identify that. The case screws are torx T4 and the screws internally are all torx T5. But that's just being ridiculously picky. Great video!
Very helpful and very well explained!! Thanks for the great work!
Great Video!! Helped me to replace the battery quickly. Thanks for the close view & nice explanation.
This video helped me save $199 for my 2015 MBP. It's awesome since I'm leaving to grad school soon and need to start saving for the move. Thanks for this!
Great to hear!
There are several components to battery repairing. One place I discovered that successfully combines these is the Magic Mender Wizard (check it out on google) definately the best info i've seen. look at this super resource.
Hello, did you manage to successfully change your battery? Where did you get the battery to save 200 dollars? Since apple charges 200 dollars right?
@@MigueART I didn’t purchase the battery from Apple and I highly doubt they’d sell a spare directly to the consumer. I bought a battery I thought was good quality on Amazon. Lasted until recently when my laptop battery expanded and burst into smoke at my workplace. The $199 is the difference between what it would have costed me to service it with apple at the time. Luckily, my stuff is backed up.
@@Slimbenzene139 Okay. Sorry for the loss of your mac, seems to be somewhat real / common problem. I'm just wondering because the cheapest I can go for the battery and the tools would be around 100 dollars. Apple replaces it for 200 dollars so I would only be saving 100 dollars. Do you know what I mean? I'm thinking if the 100 dollars is worth it.
Great vid! It is also a good idea to drain the batteries before the process.
Rick, this is flat out awesome. I was just researching whether to spend the dough on Apple doing this, or whether I could pull a DIY on it. I'm sold. Going to get the battery now. Oh, did I say THANK YOU!? THANK YOU!!!
Followed step by step. Have one little issue with one of the cover screws, but other than that, flawless. Thanks again!!
Thank you, no messing, easy to see and well explained.
Thanks for this. I used a small flat head screwdriver to gently "encourage" the battery to release from its moorings. I was clean out of acetone anyway. :) But as expected, this battery was old enough that the glue was not nearly as sticky and it came out cleanly for me. Now, I can close the lid. Good stuff.
Thank you. Straight to the point and easy to watch.
Thanks, this helped me in changing macbook pro A1502 battery easily due to this video. Luckily I have pure acetone with me. That adhevie is really strong and not using some kind of adhesive remover will make this battery change into a disaster, you could end up accidentally ripping a cable ribbon or puncture the battery or even damaging the PCB.
Love the focus on safety! :) Often underrated by many!
Thank you!
Thanks, Rick. Very helpful video. I just ordered a battery via your link to help you get rich soon!
Thank you! I appreciate it.
Excellent video! Thanks so much. 2 of the cells on my granddaughters battery pack were swollen. I took the machine out on the deck to use the acetone. I might add "No Smoking!" when using acetone. The old battery is out and the new one will go in after dinner.
Just changed my battery today…..this video was very very very helpful….thanks for putting this out….lol i actually forgot the speaker screw placement ….which screw was which but you got it covered.
This video was extremely helpful, thanks.
Awesome video, changed the battery myself, thanks bud
Very helpful video! Thank you! My advice - you can use one thread of paracord for central part of battery under touchpad.
cheers brother this was a amazing help ❤❤
This video helped me fix my issue! Appreciate it! 🙌🏽
Thank you so much! I was able to fix it in no time and for under 50$.
Thank you, I have the same model and problem. Your video helped me figure out how to replace the molded battery. Thanks again! :)
Glad it helped!
Thank you, you saved me a couple of hundred dollars as well. Great video and easy to follow.
Glad it helped

Thanks, your video made this so much easier!
Glad it helped!
Great video - saved me €150. I found it helpful to not plug the speakers out, just remove the screws, take them out of the frame, but leave them plugged in (04:48 & 06:02), the plugs seem very delicate and I saw from other comments and videos people ended up breaking them. For the touchpad (at 06:40), I also left the bottom part plugged in. Just be careful when working around them.
Total life saver. Thanks!
You're welcome!
Fantastic, well done. Thank You!
Thank you so much for this video. Your advice worked like a charm. 😊🎉
Succesfully done! Thanks for the great Video!!
Great to hear!
Perfect video! Very helpful! Not that hard when I can see each step.
Amazing video, i did the acetone thing and they came right off. my batteries were enormous 😂. thank you for the insightful video
Thank you man I really appreciate this video. Done successfully.
You're welcome!
Fantastico. Melhor explicacao que encontrei. Fiz e deu tudo certo
Hi. Thank you for your video. It was very clear and enabled me to replace my battery successfully. I think I’ll try my iPhone now😅
This was so helpful, thanks! 😙😙😙
Nice video, I will replace the battery in the following your steps.
I used to remove nail polish with that acetone stuff :D Thank you for great manual
AMAZING... thanks again, PERFECT Instructions
Thank you so much, Rick!
Note: adhesive is really a very viscous fluid. In addition to the credit card and solvent, one can pry the batteries off with a VERY slow gentle force. This also works for trying to peel tape off something without tearing the tape.
I used a wooden spoon with a curved end. Worked like it was made for the job! Thanks for the video.
i used a credit card to jimmie it out and brute force i. e. no acetone. then just peeled the tape bits off.
Clear, well explained, thank you very much !
You're welcome!
Thanks dude!helpful tutorial)
No problem. Glad it helped!
Very helpful. Thank you so much
You're very welcome!
Just what I needed
Great stuff, thank you.
Thank you, this worked perfectly. :D
Thank you, it helped a lot!
You're welcome!
Very useful video. I accidentally disconnected the keyboard connector. Fortunately, it worked fine once that was reconnected.
Great video BUT ... DO NOT REMOVE UPPER SPEAKER CONNECTIONS with spludger tool. Connector can be ripped off the board. The pins can be held more tightly than the flimsy surface solder connections. I had to solder the connectors back to the board - not easy. There is no reason to remove those connectors - just detach speakers and gently move them out of the way. There is also no real reason to remove the lower zero insertion track pad connector. Again, just the upper connector and gently move the ribbon out of the way. Do the minimum!
Thanks dude! I did the same with track pad connector.
mine was a little different & didn’t have a trackpad cable on to of the battery
Great shout - for those confused these speaker plugs are at 4:48 and 6:02. I just sort of removed the speakers from the frame without plugging them out of the respective sockets (you'll see they are delicate). I worked around them without any issues. Likewise I didn't remove the end of the touchpad cable at 6:42 - just worked around it.
@@i_am_ronan A lot of times instructions say to remove more than needed. Every cable that is disconnected is a potential problem when trying to reconnect. I had difficulty with the battery connector itself not snapping into place.
@@PaulLebowlike car repair. Thats how they get those billable hours in repairs lol
Thanks a million. You saved me cost and trust for insincere technicians.
Glad to help!
perfect ...grazie sei stato molto utile e preciso....molte grazie
Hi from 2023. Thanks for the manual, was able to replace the battery
Thank you. Great Video
Very good. Thanks for sharing.
Thank you for this great procedure video. I just read the reviews on Amazon for the Ninja brand battery you featured... The most recent ones are very negative indicating it only lasted a few months... After that it only gave a 10% charge. Some also swelled up quickly damaging the MacBook case. Do you recommend any other brands now?
Thank you Rick!
Rick didn't go at it like the proverbial bull in the china shop. Nice careful technique and effective. Very helpful.
If you boot while holding down command-R, does it boot you into the recovery console?
Video was helpful, the torque screwdrivers that came with the battery didn’t fit, ordered the Aspsung and couldn’t have been easier. Hopefully the battery has longevity.
I hope to get at least another five years out of mine.
Great video. Thanks :-)
Amazing, thanks...looks tough. Video is the only way.
May I ask you a question Rick. Seeing it is so difficult to remove these batteries do you think one can get by installing a new one without the adhesive label taken off to make it easy to replace next time. I need to swap a battery shortly and given the full backing adhesive of the new batteries I was thinking not to stick it down which if tight enough might just do? What do you think. Many thanks for your videos which are very informative and helpful.
Great video , thx
thanks a lot, i appreciate it
I had used a different battery from ebay and got a very slow MBP after replacement. However, after getting ANTIEE it was back to normal! Just keep in mind type of battery is important.
Awesome video thank you
To remove the adhesive i used nail remover...after startup you should calibrate the battery...it depends on the brand one got...my new battery says to empty the current cycle then recharge till 100
Great video thanks
Thank you!
Can you specify the seringe details please? I can't find it in the provided link. I want the one with the head similar to yours
oh yes, my batteries look like this, too. thanks for the video, 'cause of Corona the repair-service doesn't work fast
No problem 👍
This looks like a terrific video tutorial, and following it was super easy. However, when I got everything back together, my keyboard no longer worked (at all). Any idea why, or what I can do to fix that?
Hard to say but I would try disconnecting and reseating the connectors you removed to replace the battery.
De mucha ayuda! Muchas gracias
If I want to replace the speakers as well, should I do the battery first?
Thank you, anotoher success case here!
You're welcome!
Great Video!!!
Thank you!
Hi thanks for the video. I changed the battery! I used isopropyl alchol it works good. I used too much. no need to that because it spills to the keyboard touchpad and screen. I used a protection for the screen as you showed! it is a must but don't use acetone. Other than that good video!
