2012 Macbook Pro Batteries Changed

2012 Or Later Macbook Battery Replacement: In mid 2012 Apple began selling the Retina models. Both the 13″ Retina and the 15″ Retina. Before the Retina was introduced, the batteries were held in Macbook Pro’s with screws. That all changed in 2012. Now every model they sell besides the Air has the battery held to the palmrest or bottom cover with adhesive.

Retina Battery Removal: To replace the battery in a Mid 2012 or newer Mabook Pro you literally need to pry the old battery out with special tools.

Swollen Macbook Battery Repair

When A Macbook Battery Goes Bad It Can Swell Up: If you notice your Macbook is not sitting flat on a table it is most likely experiencing a swollen battery. We have seen Macbook Batteries swell up significantly and still report “normal” condition in power properties. We really don’t know why. A Macbook Battery can swell to over an inch thick, and be pushing the bottom cover up like a balloon, and still report normal. Macbook Users must be aware when their battery begins to swell up it needs to be replaced immediately.

Unplug Battery With Liquid Spill

If You Experience A Liquid Spill On Your Macbook Unplug The Battery: When liquid gets on a logicboard in a Macbook if the battery is plugged in there can be significantly more corrosion. If you unfortunately have a problem with liquid getting spilled on a Macbook take off the bottom cover, and unplug the battery as soon as possible to slow down corrosion.

We Thoroughly Clean All Macbooks We Repair: When a Macbook is used for hour after hour they build up a lot of dust inside. Every time we service or repair a Macbook we clean the inside thoroughly. Always. The fans in Macbooks should be cleaned at least once a year. This requires taking off the bottom cover and using compressed air to blow the lint out of the heat sink.

2016 15″ Retina Battery Replacement Info: In order to install the battery in a 15″ Macbook Pro Retina model from 2016 on the logicboard must be partially removed to install a new battery. The wires connecting the controller board to the battery literally runs under the logicboard. A tech needs to be extremely careful when replacing and repairing batteries on the 15″ models from 2016 and newer. This as well as the battery is attached to the palmrest with adhesive, and needs to be pried off. We recommend only letting experts repair your Macbook’s bad battery.
