That means that if you want a MacBook Pro 15 mid-2010 logic board upgrade, you'll need to find a logic board from the same year and same size.

The size of the MacBook Pro 2010 logic board should be considered as you won't be able to complete a MacBook Pro 15 mid-2010 logic board upgrade with a MacBook Pro 13 unibody mid-2010 2.66 mid-2010 logic board. However, MacBook Pro 2010 logic board compatibility is limited with MacBook Pros produced after 2011, and you may not be able to do a drastic jump to a later model. It's perfectly fine to use this repair as an opportunity for a MacBook Pro 2010 logic board upgrade once you establish the compatibility between your current logic board and the logic board you wish to use as a replacement. Can you upgrade a logic board during replacement? However, if your model falls outside the MacBook Pro mid-2010 logic board replacement program, eBay offers MacBook Pro 2010 logic boards to assist with your MacBook Pro mid-2010 logic board upgrade or repair. Apple is known as much for their stellar customer service as they are their top-of-the-line computers.

If you can't get your 2010 Macbook Pro to turn on or you have strange lines across your screen, consider a MacBook Pro 2010 logic board repair. The fans didn't even turn on.Things to Know Before Purchasing a MacBook Pro 2010 Logic Board

With this keyboard, I successfully installed the operating system and was able to do a few things, such as install Google Chrome, and things are fine. Yes, that's the spare keyboard we had lying around. This explains why the power button did not work, the keyboard itself doesn't work so the power button of course won't work. In any case, I could now boot up the laptop into the installer. But for some reason did not work with this MacBook Pro.

SIGH The power adapter I'd been using is perfectly fine, and works correctly with my daily driver laptop. And the computer booted up fine on that power adapter. Then - I tried a different power adapter. Glimmer of hope - Tried a different power adapter I also tried finding the logic board pads that can be jumpered to force the laptop to boot, but that did not work. It would be easy to fail to install the keyboard cable incorrectly, so I checked that several times and it was fine. On these Unibody MacBook Pro's, the power button is part of the keyboard. Ergo, the computer should boot when the power button is pressed. The key indicators were that the green light on the power adapter cord lights up, and also the battery status indicator lights, and together that indicates the logic board is getting electricity. No matter how hard I pressed the power button (as if that would help) it would not turn on. It's all very elegant and the type of simplicity that comes after a lot of engineering work. The upper part (can we call those antlers?) are heat sinks, and the fans blow directly through them.

The lower part interfaces with chips on the MacBook Pro logic board, and this is the critical place for the thermal grease to go. Thinking the thermal grease I'd used was a bad idea, I purchased some thermal pads and installed them under the heat sink.Īnd oh by the way can't we just stop for a minute and ogle the lengths Apple's hardware engineers go to make beautiful hardware? This is the heat sink. I attempted to fix both those, but afterward the computer would not turn on. I found dust bunnies in the cooling system, and that the thermal grease had dried out.
