What the fault looks like

  • —Completely dead — no chime, no fan, no sign of life on any charger
  • —Chargers negotiate but the machine will not power on
  • —Screen black with an external display working — a backlight circuit fault
  • —One or more USB-C ports dead or intermittent

What we actually do

This is bench work, not part swapping. The board comes out, goes under the microscope, and we trace the fault with a schematic and boardview — the same maps Apple-authorised centres use.

Common fixes: backlight driver and fuse, CD3215 USB-C controllers, corroded power-rail components, dead NAND power lines. We replace the failed component, not the board.

Every repair is ultrasonic-cleaned first if there is any corrosion history — you cannot solder reliably onto a contaminated board.

Where a board is genuinely beyond economic repair we say so, quote a replacement board if one makes sense, and offer data recovery as a separate route.

Parts and grades, stated plainly

Discrete components — controllers, MOSFETs, capacitors, connectors — sourced to the original specification. Nothing is "reworked" unless it is the correct fix.

Warranty

3 months on the repaired circuit. No fix, no fee: if we cannot repair it, the diagnosis costs you nothing. Full terms on the warranty page.

Questions we actually get

Apple told me the board needs replacing for £600+. Can you do better?+
Usually, yes. Apple replaces boards; we repair them. Most "dead board" faults are a handful of components. The diagnosis is free, so the worst case is you know for certain.
What is component-level repair?+
Identifying the exact failed chip or component on the board and replacing just that part under a microscope, rather than swapping the whole logic board.
Will my data survive?+
On modern MacBooks the storage is on the board, so repairing your board is usually the only route to your data. That is exactly why we repair rather than replace.
How long does board repair take?+
Two to five working days depending on the fault. We give you a firm quote after the bench diagnosis, usually within 24 hours of drop-off.
Is it worth repairing an older machine?+
We will tell you honestly. If the repair approaches the value of a good refurbished replacement, we say so — and can quote you one from the shop shelf.
