------------------------Dividing line----------------------

1, we must first prepare a set of tools

As the new mbp uses a new type of pentagonal screw , it is greatly restricted on the disassembly tool. The landlord's two-box 31-in-1 screwdriver cannot be disassembled. The landlord advises everyone to buy the tool of the ifix it---an equipment that specializes in apple electronics. Demolition of the website produced a tool kit, a box of about more than 200 soft sister bar, of course, we can also choose other brands, but we must remember not to covet cheap to buy some goods can not guarantee the quality of the goods! Screwdriver screwing is a trivial matter, and screwing the flower is not worth it (the Apple store seems to have one hundred screws)

2, need to understand the knowledge before demolition:

Another big feature of the new mbp is that there are more than one type of screw on the back shell. Let's look at the following figure to find out:

When you remove it, you must classify it in order to prevent you from using the wrong screws to introduce you to the following two screws:

The first kind we can use a blank paper to divide the screws into small grids according to requirements, as shown below:

The above figure is taken from this article

The second method is to buy a small box that can be classified into screws, as shown in the following figure:

Each small box of this box is equipped with a spring, which can be bought by opening and closing a dozen dollars. Also, please attach a link.

3, when removing the screws:

If you choose the same type of screwdriver as the landlord, you can remove it with this #5 bit .

Before we screw the screw, we have to remember a mouth rinsing: reverse sleek means that turning counterclockwise can loosen the screw and clockwise can tighten the screw . Why do buildings mainly emphasize this? Because the mpp's screws are tight, one can mistakenly believe that twisting the screws in the opposite direction leads to screwing the screws.

what? Did you say that your screw has been screwed? Don't rush to let us come slowly

As shown in the above figure, we have the following solutions:

We can find a screwdriver that can be inserted into the screw mouth. Put a little 502 glue on the screwdriver head and insert it into the screw mouth. When the glue is completely solidified, it can be removed by rotating it.

We can also grind the screw mouth into a "figure" with a guillotine knife and use a slotted screwdriver to unscrew it.

If your broken screw is exactly in the four corners and only one screw is left, you can remove it by rotating the lid;

It is said that a type of spray called "WD-40" can also be used to remove the screwed bald screw, but the landlord has not tried it, so he does not know how it works.

You can also find a professional repair computer, let them use a professional drill to remove, as if to 10 dollars.

502 glue must be completely dry before screwing, or will produce a side effect but also to the glue drops on the screwdriver instead of screws. If you want to turn shells, be aware that the rear shell is a very thin metal and cannot withstand strong attacks. Also note that the back cover has a thin frame and it's easy to scratch your hands. If you go to the maintenance staff, you must find a professional reputation, just in case. Regarding the various tapped screw extractors on Taobao, given the very small diameter of the mbp screw, it would be nice to look at the rough and big bit. Even if the extractor with a short diameter is certainly very detailed, it may not be able to stand the test of a scaffold. Therefore, the landlord recommends that you do what you can.


4, remove the shell

In fact, there are two buckles on the central side of the back shell, but after the dismantling of the landlord, the two buckles do not need to be noticed, and a flip cover opens.

Well, the landlord can only take everyone here. Here we can maintain the computer or upgrade some hardware.

-----------------------------------------------End

The landlord was opened for repair because of the water intake (water inlet in the exhaust outlet). The first and most critical step in the computer's water intake is to turn off the power and shut down! Burning the motherboard is a big problem. After power off, look for a good posture for the computer to control the water with the fastest speed, and use the hair dryer to blow the surface of the water inlet part. When the water drops are not visible to the naked eye, the rear shell can be opened for deep cleaning. (Note that this time should not be too long).

Why does the landlord not go to Apple store repair? Because the landlord is in a small city, it takes 8 hours to travel to and from the nearest Apple store.

There is an authorized repair station in the city, but the staff said that they did not have permission to repair the notebook. It was really time when the water came in. Time was money! After the rescue of the building host, mbp finally regained its new life. By the way, if you repair yourself, it will be a private demolition . The private demolition will lose warranty service . The landlord also decided to do it himself after fierce ideological struggles. The landlord's point of view still feels that the warranty is of little significance. Proposing local tyrants to engage in an Apple care+, it is said that that stuff is very useful.

I hope this article can give you some help. Everyone has questions or comments that can be left in the comments area. I'll try my best to help everyone with the last suggestion. Silver can throw a little or pay attention to the next few preparations to send a review, to remember to look around
