awesome video, super easy to follow. When I removed the battery cable, the little plastic clip came off the bracket and I can't get it back in. Just sliding the cable back into the connector without clipping it down doesn't seem to work as it is not getting any power from the battery anymore. The laptop powers on if plugged into it usb-c power adapter. Looking closer at your video - you don't seem to have the little plastic clip either. Is there a trick to get the battery connection working without the clip?

Success! ❤ Thank you sir. Another note that I might add is if you get some little organizers and some blue painters tape / Marker and organize the fasteners/parts and label them by step so that when you're going in the part, putting it back together, you can simply go in reverse order and you have all your screws organized and you can't mix anything up or forget anything. Cheers! Also note that when you want to turn the laptop back on you need to connect a power cord back in before it will boot up after the battery was disconnected for some reason, I thought I did something wrong but once I connected a power supply it booted right up and now it's all good!

You’re a life saver! Got a used screen and used this! The one thing was, when I got the toolkit, the sizes were different from what you mentioned. Also, many of the Wi-Fi antenna screws were either already stripped or close to it. I ended up stripping several of them. Many of them I had to pry out and the last one was so bad I had to drill into the metal to get the antenna to come off. Other than that. Success and the e new screen works amazing!

Thank you for your excellent video. I used it as a reference twice now! Please may I ask some advice: my friend smashed his screen when the charger hit it. So we replaced it with a used screen from eBay, fitted by following your great instructions. It lasted 3 months, then died (went black). So I replaced it again, another used screen from eBay - same problem, black screen! The Macbook works perfectly with an external screen. I checked the internal connectors, no problem there. Some sellers on eBay list the screen as "A1990 screen 2018/19 but they *also* include an EMC number. Is it possible that a different EMC version can be the cause of this problem? Thank you in advance.

I really liked the video and I was able to change my screen in about an hour and a half. I have a few suggestions to help out the first timers. 1. Tell people at the beginning of the video what tools they are going to need and the links if they don’t have them. 2. During disassembly tell people what size bit they need to use on the different screws. They are very small and you can spend a lot of time trying to figure it out. 3. During re assembly show and or describe which screw size you are putting back and what size bit it takes. I think these additional steps will really help people to get the repairs done faster and with less difficulty.

Hello. very good video. Many thanks. I have a laptop of exactly the same model. And my problem is the following: - not a clear image of the text on the screen. - vertical stripes appear temporarily when opening the laptop. - the video is distorted colors. So here's the question: Is there a problem with the monitor cable or with the monitor itself? How can you understand what needs to be changed?

@UbergeeksBiz 2 жыл бұрын

I would try output display on external monitor or TV. If you get perfect screen, meaning the video chipset is not damage. In other word, the LCD is bad. Now maybe $6 cable is bad BUT no way you can change that. So you still end up changing the entire LCD screen.
