This by far is the best of all the explanations I have seen on this topic. Obviously someone who actually knows what they are doing by experience . This is my second shot as the first was a total disaster, broken trackpad cable, shorted battery. Fortunately all good this time around makes all the difference when following someone who knows.

Thank you so much for your fantastic video! The battery replacement worked and I saved a lot of money by doing it myself versus going to the Apple store!

I don’t normally comment on tutorials (I should really start doing so), but this was very well-done! Clearly explained, nicely paced so people can follow along in real time and then fast forward/rewind as needed. For viewers, a good chunk of time was spent separating the batteries from the adhesive tape inside. This is the most time-consuming part of the battery replacement. You can also use a 1-2” plastic putty/spackle knife or paint scraper, whatever you prefer to call it. Having a handle really saves your fingers from using the little credit card type pieces that come with the battery. Again, A+ video and instructions!

Great Demo! It took me literally 2 minutes to remove the batteries using the art tools you recommended. Smart move to take out the trackpad. You can also put some cloth on the screen to protect it and work even faster.

Excellent video and perfectly helped me replace my battery. One thing to note is that after replacing the battery, you need to reset the SMC (Google it) on the laptop to reset the battery cycle count and remove the "Battery service recommended" message. I really appreciate that you show how to remove the trackpad so as not to damage it when loosening the middle battery. I couldn't get it to slide around after reinstalling it, and that"s because I had tightened the screws nearest the edge of the case. Once I loosened those, it was easy to slide around the trackpad to align it correctly.

No need to. The motherboard reads the battery chip upon every startup and shutdown

This was an excellent guide and explanation! You saved me a lot of money on a service appointment for my venerable (2017) MacBook Pro. Thank you from Canada :)

Great video! Worked perfectly for about two weeks and then the battery bricked again. Computer would not turn on. Luckily Amazon is sending a replacement because it was under 30 days. I think the battery had a 1-year warranty as well. Lets hope the new one works. It was charging fine, no "Service" message, lasting a long time, etc and then just died. I have gotten pretty fast at changing them out now! I used a hair dryer to warm up the glue from the other side and the glue released easy. Just warm not hot as Lithium ion batteries can be dangerous with heat. I would not use a heat gun. I didn't put any heat on the keyboard or logic board.

Hello Sir. I'm planning such an adventure myself on my mac, exactly the same model but I find it a bit curious in picking the battery. There are a few price differences out there on ebay and I can't really decide if I should go for cheaper or more expensive. Thanks, great video

What is the washer arrangement on the trackpad? How many washers on which posts? This unit has NONE!

@riskdesignsintros9626 Жыл бұрын

Can you use aceton to remove the battery easilier? For me its no problem if the old battery gets damaged.

@comptechnyc Жыл бұрын

I would definitely not use acetone. Can easily damage the plastic of the old battery and make it short resulting in potential fire. I rarely respond to comments, but this can be serious if you do use it.
