Try These DIY Fixes Before Booking a Repair
Before sending in your Apple laptop, try these simple steps—some issues may not require full motherboard repair:
- Reset the SMC (System Management Controller): Shut down, then press and hold Shift + Control + Option + Power for 10 seconds, release, then power on. This helps with power and charging faults.
- Reset NVRAM/PRAM: Turn on and immediately press Option + Command + P + R for 20 seconds. Useful for screen and audio issues.
- Use an External Monitor: If the internal display is black, try connecting an external monitor to check if the issue is GPU/display-related.
- Inspect for Liquid Damage: Look for residue near ports or keyboard. If found, power off immediately and do not attempt to charge or restart the laptop.
- Swap the Charger: Try another genuine Apple charger to rule out a faulty power adapter.
- Run Apple Diagnostics: Start your Mac and hold down the "D" key to launch diagnostics. Note any error codes that appear.
If these steps don’t solve the problem, it's likely your logic board needs expert repair. That’s where we come in.
