Intro

Is guide me hum MacBook Pro 13″ Mid 2010 model ka upper case (jo keyboard ke saath hota hai) replace karenge.
Is process me aapko purana trackpad nayi upper case me transfer karna hoga.
Kaafi components nikaalne padte hain, toh patience aur sahi tools zaroori hain.

Tools Required

  • Small Phillips screwdriver

  • T6 Torx screwdriver

  • Spudger (plastic pry tool)

  • ESD-safe area (static se bachao ke liye)

  • Screw tray ya soft cloth (screws mix na ho jaaye)

Step 1 — Lower Case Screws Nikaalo

  • Laptop ko ulta karo aur 10 screws nikaalo jo bottom panel ko hold karte hain:

    • 7 screws – 3 mm Phillips

    • 3 screws – 13.5 mm Phillips

  • Screw sizes alag-alag rakho taaki reassembly me confusion na ho.

Step 2 — Lower Case Hatao

  • Lower case ko thoda uthaake rear side ki taraf slide karo taaki clips release ho jaayein.

  • Phir gently lower case ko nikaal lo.

Step 3 — Battery Disconnect Karo

  • Safety ke liye battery connector ko logic board se disconnect karo.

  • Spudger se connector ke dono side se thoda uthaake bahar nikaalo.

  • Yeh step zaroor karo warna short circuit ka risk hota hai.

Step 4 — Fan Disconnect aur Remove

  • Spudger se fan connector ko logic board se upar pry karo.

  • Thoda side se twist karne se connector easily niklega.

  • Dhyaan rahe — fan socket fragile hota hai.

  • 3 screws nikaalo:

    • 1 screw – 7 mm T6 Torx

    • 2 screws – 5.4 mm T6 Torx

  • Ab fan ko gently uthaake bahar nikaal lo.

Step 5 — Display Data Cable Disconnect

  • Display cable ke pull tab ko pakadke DC-in board side ki taraf rotate karo.

  • Fir cable ko logic board ke parallel direction me kheenchkar nikaalo (upar se mat kheenchna).

Step 6 — Display Bracket Remove Karo

  • Do screws nikaalo:

    • 1 screw – 8.6 mm Phillips

    • 1 screw – 5.6 mm Phillips

  • Bracket ko lift karke side me rakh do.

Step 7 — Subwoofer & Speaker Connector

  • Spudger ka flat end use karke subwoofer aur right speaker connector ko logic board se pry karke upar uthao.

Step 8 — Camera Cable

  • Camera cable connector ko gently optical drive ki taraf kheench ke disconnect karo.

  • Metal socket ko damage mat karo; reconnect karte time sahi alignment zaroor check karo.

Step 9 — Other Connectors (Optical Drive, HDD, Trackpad)

  • Spudger se in tino connectors ko gently upar uthao:

    • Optical drive

    • Hard drive

    • Trackpad

  • Cable ko twist ya bend mat karo.

Step 10 — Keyboard Ribbon Cable

  • Small black ZIF socket ke flap ko fingernail ya spudger se flip karo.

  • Phir keyboard ribbon cable ko gently slide karke bahar nikaal lo.

Step 11 — Keyboard Backlight Tape aur Cable

  • Chhota black tape jo keyboard backlight cable ke socket par laga hai, use dhyaan se peel karo.

  • Flap ko flip karke backlight ribbon cable ko socket se nikaalo.

Step 12 — Battery Indicator Cable

  • Spudger ke flat end se battery indicator cable connector ko gently upar pry karo aur nikaalo.

Step 13 — Logic Board Removal

  • Sabhi connected cables aur screws ko check karo ki disconnected hain.

  • Logic board ko dhyaan se lift karo aur side me rakh do.

  • Board ke neeche kuch thermal pads ya tape ho sakti hai — damage mat karo.

Step 14 — Upper Case Replace Karo

  • Ab old upper case ko completely remove karo.

  • Agar tumhara new upper case without trackpad hai, toh trackpad ko purane se nikaal kar nayi case me install karo.

  • Trackpad ke screws ko tight karte waqt alignment zaroor check karo.

Step 15 — Reassembly

  • Sab steps reverse order me follow karo:

    • Logic board wapas lagao

    • Cables reconnect karo

    • Fan aur battery connect karo

    • Lower case close karo aur screws lagao

  • Power on karke sab kuch test karo (keyboard, trackpad, sound, display).

Tips

  • Har screw ke size aur location note karna helpful hota hai.

  • Static discharge se bachne ke liye grounded surface par kaam karo.

  • Agar koi connector tight lag raha hai, force mat lagao — pehle direction check karo.

  • Trackpad alignment thoda tricky hota hai, patience rakho.
