Excellent guide. As there was no guide for mainboard replacement I used this one up to step 30, perhaps there should be a guide? The most difficult part for me was getting the rubber fan gasket to sit where it needed to during reassembly, perhaps a detail photo of this when the PCB is floating would be a benefit. I also had another small rubber piece come loose from somewhere and was unable to determine where it was supposed to live. It was about 1.5 cm long, and had an extruded channel in it, like perhaps it was supposed to protect and edge or a cable… seemed to fall off from somewhere on the LCD connector side of the board, but I don’t see it in any of the photos included and nothing was obvious.
I used this as a teardown and then in reverse a rebuild guide. My mac was water damaged and I replaced the logic board using this guide. And it worked! Thanks so much to the author
