    • Use the edge of a spudger to pry the battery connector upwards from its socket on the logic board.

    • It is useful to pry upward on both short sides of the connector to "walk" it out of its socket. Be careful with the corners of the connectors, they can be easily broken off.

  4. MacBook Pro 13" Unibody Early 2011 Logic Board Replacement: stap 4, afbeelding 1 van 1
    • Bend the battery cable slightly away from its socket on the logic board so it does not accidentally connect itself while you work.

    • Use the edge of a spudger to gently pry the fan connector up and out of its socket on the logic board.

    • It is useful to twist the spudger axially from beneath the fan cable wires to release the connector.

    • The fan socket and the fan connector can be seen in the second and third pictures. Be careful not to break the plastic fan socket off the logic board as you use your spudger to lift the fan connector straight up and out of its socket. The layout of the logic board shown in the second picture may look slightly different than your machine but the fan socket is the same.

  6. MacBook Pro 13" Unibody Early 2011 Logic Board Replacement: stap 6, afbeelding 1 van 1
    • Remove the following three screws securing the fan to the logic board:

    • One 7.2 mm T6 Torx screw

    • Two 5.3 mm T6 Torx screws

    • Pull the right speaker/subwoofer cable upward to lift the connector out of its socket on the logic board.

  9. MacBook Pro 13" Unibody Early 2011 Logic Board Replacement: stap 9, afbeelding 1 van 1
    • Disconnect the camera cable from the logic board.

    • The camera cable lifts straight away from the logic board. If your cable feels fragile, use a spudger to pry up on the small metal tabs on each side of the connector head to disconnect the cable.

    • Use your fingernail to flip up the retaining flap on the keyboard ribbon cable ZIF socket.

    • Be sure you are prying up on the hinged retaining flap, not the socket itself.

    • Use the tip of a spudger to pull the keyboard ribbon cable out of its socket.

    • Pull the display data cable straight out of its socket on the logic board.

    • Do not lift up on the display data cable, as its socket is very fragile. Pull the cable parallel to the face of the logic board.

    • Without flexing the board, maneuver it out of the upper case, minding the flexible connection to the DC-In board that may get caught in the upper case.

    • Remove the logic board.

  20. MacBook Pro 13" Unibody Early 2011 Logic Board Replacement, Left Speaker: stap 20, afbeelding 1 van 1

    • Remove the three 8.4 mm #1 Phillips screws securing the heat sink to the logic board.

    • Don't lose the springs held under each of the screws.

    • Carefully remove the heat sink from the processor.

    • If the heat sink seems to be stuck, it may be helpful to gently pry it off the processor with a plastic spudger. Be careful not to break any surface mount components on the processor while prying.

    • Be sure to clean off the old thermal paste and apply a new layer before you reinstall the heat sink. We have a guide that makes it easy.

My son spilled soda into 13"MB early 2011, I did not get to repair for 6 weeks. Machine took over twice typical time to start-up and once running, cursor showed stuttered movement and launching applications was very slow.

I used guide (only steps 1-19) to remove logic board and delicately cleaned with very slightly damp Q-Tip (using Windex electronics cleaner) & dried, every place I cleaned, using compressed air. I did not remove the heatsink, as I assumed the paste protected the processor underneath.

Once cleaned, I reversed all steps and it booted quickly and all other issues disappeared. THANK YOU!!!

Do you send to Brazil the same Logic board above Its the Early 2011 MBP A1278 with the Core i5 2.3 GHz processo. It had many issues with it’s Logic boar and I think it’s a manufacture defect. I’m so desaposentes with apple planned Obsolescence, ando no repair. It’s not the same apple. My computer was boutique inAustralia , so I’m protected by their consumer act(2010) I just have to prove it was a hidden problem.

My track pad was difficult to "click". I've replaced batteries before, so I knew that it was definitely a swollen battery. However, when removing the damaged, swollen battery, I used the end of a flat head screw driver to pry up the battery connection... DON'T DO THAT! I saw the tiniest of sparks around pins 4-5-6 on the 9 pin battery connector. New battery installed, but the OS didn't recognize the new battery -- black "X" over the battery indicator. Further, the wall charger would not recharge the new battery. Instead, the computer ran off the 30% charge that new batteries are shipped with. I ordered another new battery, and after draining a second battery without being able to charge, I figured that spark was the sign that I fried something in the logic board. Indeed that was exactly the case, and logic board replacement did fix the issue. I found these instructions INVALUABLE in replacing my old logic board.

$260 lesson: Always use a plastic spudger when dislodging connectors in computers!

Thanks!
