I used to think replacing an LCD would be such a task but this video really helped me man. Was able to successfully replace mine yesterday with the help of this excellent video!
Where did you get the Display From and For How Much? Asking for a friend
Greetings from Ireland. I saved hundreds by following your instructions. Surprisingly simple when you have each step so clearly explained. Many, many thanks to you. You have saved me a lot of money! Cheers!
Cheer my man!
Followed your video step by step and replacing my granddaughter's LCD Assembly was a snap. Well, it took me an hour, but the instructions were spot on and I saved a ton. Thanks,
+Rick Rogers I'm glad it helped :)

I have never done an LCD replacement on a MacBook Pro 13" A1278, your video has given me the preparation skills to take on the job. Thanks for sharing your knowledge. Very much appreciated.
Glad to help.
Thanks A Lot You Brought Life Back into my old MacBook Pro with this Great Video.
Great video thanks ! One important detail for people needing tools for the job , on my macbook pro 13 the 3 hinge screws on each side are not T6 like you say in this demo , they are in fact T9 size . So if you buy a kit with all the sizes your fine but if your buying just that tool its a T9 , not T6 . On my macbook pro 13 A1278 2012 thats how it is anyways.
Thank you for the video, is this what I need to do if the screen cracked and it doesn’t turn on?
Rather than just replacing the face of the screen?
Is it possible to upgrade to a Retina display on a non-retina mbp?
I have got a 13” MacBook Pro mid 2012 the screen needs replacing would a 2009 13” MacBook Pro screen fit on there ?
Hi
Can you please guide me replace isight camera connecting cable because I broke the wire from the connectors which connects to motherboard
Thanks
Does the iSight cable have to be attached in order for it to turn on?
Perfect ! ✅👍🏻 Thanks a ton ! 😊
Can the just the LVDS cable be replace on Macbook pro mid 2012 non retina A1278.
Hi I replace dir but the screens not turning on any ideas why that would happen?
You’re the best. Thank you
My Screen Flickering on boot time... After that It continue flickering as i am not able to view anything.... Should i use this method directly or ???
Can we change it with retina display? Is it compatible?
Great video, could you add replacement guide only for lvds cable that would be great
EXCELLENT TUTORIAL!!! 👍🏿👍🏿
Glad to help!
Thank you. I really appreciate it. Operation successful
What cable connects the Inverter to the mobo?
Thank you for this video!
Great video - thank you so much!
Welcome :)
Can I use MacBook Pro display in MacBook air??
How would I replace just the lcd cable?

Hello. I hope you can help me.
My screen worked fine before I took off the LCD because of a noise in the plastic parts every time i close the screen; i just did that, checked the black plastic at the bottom of the screen and then i putted back on its place but then the screen is black, the brightness doesn't work, i can see the through with a lamp and i can get to my desktop but i can not get the brightness work again, do you know what can be wrong?
Yes, it's the back-light that is out. There are two variants of solutions to this issue. First is to unplug the LVDS cable (The main lcd screen cable) and plug it back in, then perform a SMC reset www.appledollars.com/reset-smc , the second solution is to replace the back light fuse that might have been damaged, we don't cover component level repairs but we can point you toward an excellent channel that does just that ua-cam.com/users/rossmanngroup with a little bit of research you should find what you are looking for. Let us know if this helps.
I replaced my screen and the lvds cable but still getting a black screen. MacBook powers up. Not sure why it’s not going on. I hook up my projector to it and it displays that
I can be one of many components that have a bad connection on the board. Your best bet besides replacement is reflowing.
Did it! Thanks!!
Nice!
Any way to reattach the speaker if you broke it off the motherboard?
Solder.
Like ur vid bro!
You are a lifesaver!
Glad to help!

Hi
I did the exact things done in this video but after I reassambled there is activity in the screen. The screen is dead. What do you think went wrong ? :)
The LVDS (LCD) connector is very fragile and might need to be reseated, make sure the keyboard cable is plugged in correctly and that the Macbook is powering on (fans spin) after pressing the power button, the power button is part of the keyboard ribbon.
I replaced the lcd assembly it turned on for a day and now it doesn’t. I hear the laptop startup but nothing on the screen but I do hear the fan go on. What may be wrong ?
Did you connect the LCD cable back?
can i upgrade a non-retina macbook pro to a retina screen this way?
Negative on that. The retina models need the iris or special Nvidia graphics chip to function.
Good video. Btw the 6 screws which Connect the screen to body are T8 and not T6
yeah, that threw me for a moment
Hey, actually for me T7 worked better
Thanks you !
Welcome!
Where did you buy the replacement screen from? Link please?
Go to ebay type in:
**** macbook pro lcd screen
Substitute **** for your macbook pro year and the most popular result will be your best bet.
The way you can improve this video? Every tool you use....mention what tool it is. That's all. (i.e., "you'll need a #00 Phillips screwdriver", i.e. "you'll need a Torx T6 torque screwdriver.") Just whatever screw or ? that you're disconnecting, specify what tool you're using for each separation or disconnection. That way we viewers are all ready & prepared and, most importantly, will not damage anything---as we proceed by your protocol.
That's the only need for improvement you might make, in my humble opinion. Thank you for showing the process overall. I can make do. I'll attend to the details as needed on my own as necessary. THANK YOU AS WELL.
Thanks for the feedback
no video cpu running
TQ
Replaced LCD, won't turn on.
Can I replace for a retina display?
Nope, the graphics card on the logic board is what produces retina resolution in addition to the actual screen.
Now, I can do for my own, save money and not taking to Mac Store to they go to fix it and that they charge me dearly. 😊
mas nao mostrou como troca o lcd
Wtf is wrong with Apple, fucking just use a normal screw. Why do they use dumbass T-6 screws tf. Good vid though man 👍
