I see that you left the black rubber seal in position while you removed the old panel whereas everyone else seems to remove it straight after removing the bezel. Interesting, I might try that next time. Thanks for the video, it's good to see how others do this repair.

I can't seem to find such a sticky tape out there other than famous acrylic "pink" M3 which isn't very nice for such applications as it's behaving a little like a jelly having slightly unstable structure.

I crunched the screen on my Macbook and I was able to change the screen by doing some specific things. First get all the various screw drivers you will need and can find out about on this space. Set up a padded area on which to work.Screws bounce on hard surfaces and are a bitch to find. Third, get a series of small cups and place them exactly where you take screw out and mane notes. Take pictures. And follow a good RU-vid video

Hello, great video! I have succesfully replaced the LCD but now encounter these issues - there is a bright neon green dead pixel, the screen sometimes flashes very slim red lines on dark areas of the LCD (especially noticable on black). Is this a manufacturing defect or have I done something wrong? The LCD cable does have a small ding on it.
@Elitemactechs
@Elitemactechs 3 месяца назад
That does sound like a bad LCD panel. The bright green dead pixel is an issue with the LCD panel itself for sure, and the red lines on dark areas of the screen is usually the LCD panel.

My heat station is getting a little cranky in its old age so I think it is running cooler than what the settings say... I have it set to around 300-350C with airflow of 5 out of 10. I would start cooler and slowly work your way up to something around those numbers if necessary. It doesn't require a lot of heat and as you see in the video I spread the heat a lot and don't let it sit in one area.

Did you test the camera?
@Elitemactechs
@Elitemactechs 5 дней назад
Running the built in diagnostics post repair will tell you if the camera is still working (if you are doing it for a client and don't have the login password). On this M1 model you turn the computer off then hold the power button down and keep holding it down until it says "loading startup options". Once startup options load, hold down command D to start diagnostics mode. Once the diagnostics run it will tell you if the camera is not recognized.

I was told if I just buy the LCD and replace it on a a2337 it wont work because of software (MacOS) similar to on iPhones. Is that true? I am capable of this repair but idk if it will work if I just replace the LCD panel

I could successfully replace the LCD using your method, thank you very much. It is very difficult and time consuming. I have only one thing, when I move the lid back and forward, I can hear a little click on the left side. I moved the black plastic down and it got better. But I can still hear it. If I open the lid to his max, and then when I close it, there is no clicking sound. Do you have an idea, why this happens? My LCD display came preinstalled with the metal bracket, so I did not remove and reinstall it.
@Elitemactechs
@Elitemactechs 2 месяца назад
I haven't run into clicking sounds on this model after repair so I don't know for sure... but my guess is the under the bezel along the bottom (where it says MacBook Air), the bracket that covers the LCD cables might be the issue (this might be the black plastic piece you are referring to).

My hot air station is old and I don't think the temp settings are accurate... but I am guessing it is around 300 degrees F and about 50% flow setting. I recommend starting low and bumping up slowly... it doesn't require a lot of heat, the heat just helps it lift off easier.

just did this replacement. the issue i have is the lower lcd is bulging out keeping the lid from closing. i noticed that when i installed the lcd bezel but hoped it would work. Now i know there's zero tolerance for any bulge lol. So now the lid doesn't stay closed, and because of that the display doesn't come on after trying to close it. i'll be watching through your video again and others looking for any clues to why the lcd didn't mount properly. i also remember when installing the tiny lcd screws, i had to push down a bit to start a couple screws. i know now that is a red flag to stop and check everything

Same problem buying a display a 13 " MacBook Air from apple South Africa which was used a display one with a warranty for 6 months. 3 months later got a black square on the top right inside of the screen .weird ?Called my contact there to let him know and he was quiet surprise.Then a cracked appeared for the blackspot and crossing the screen to the other side.great so the top of the crack washing an image and the bottom black....brought it there and of course ,my fault and no trace on the body as falling down or impact.actually its like an internal crack and not on the glass and when I brought it there the battery was not working properly and to be changed.Apple is full of crap and specially being a good customer , they did nothing .happy to see that its definetly a defect on the part as they did before with other series....my MacBook Pro 16' a fuck up as well.but the 2014 series are old but still holding on ,except for upgrades.as for usb connection as 2 and faulty , ridiculous and of course they gave me along a Adam adaptor which supposedly a good brand and gone in 2 months as for most of connections .
