Capacitor for 15' and 17' Macbook Pro Unibody. Comments should be on-topic and contribute to the conversation.Ĥ: No short, ref and affiliate links. This is a film type capacitor that replaces the original defective poly-tantalum type capacitor to prevent further failures. Fortunately, replacement Apple logic boards are available for most MacBook Pro models. Symptoms include no power on the 2009 15' and 17' Macbook Pro, or graphics/video related issues and kernel panics on the 2010 15' and 17' Macbook Pro. How do you know when to replace the logic board Troubleshooting a bad logic board in your computer can be challenging because the symptoms can appear to indicate another component is failing instead of the logic board.

#Early 2010 macbook pro gpu replacement upgrade#.Well, it’s taken me a little while to get this post up-not to mention the fact that its taken me a long while to get any posts up-but I thought this one was worth it just as an encouragement for anyone else who might be dealing with a fried MacBook Pro logic board that is out of the AppleCare warranty coverage. I also needed to get this post up before I forgot most of the details.Īs a little background, I put my MBP (17″ 2.5GHz-early 2008, Model A1261 to be exact for you that are searching) to sleep by closing it up for the night, which I’ve done for the past 2+ years with no problems. The next morning I noticed that the glowing power light on the latch release was off and thought it strange and then went to open and wake it and nothing happened. After powering it down, I tried to start it back up.Īfter futilely trying to wake it by varying degrees of banging on random keys and quickly pressing the power button I waited several minutes before I committed to powering it down. While I could hear the hard drive spin up and the optical drive go through its start-up whirrings, there was no start-up chime and no effort to display anything on screen. I tried all the start-up key combinations to start in safe-mode, reset PRAM, start diagnosis-nothing worked.

Tried to insert original system install disk and boot from that, all to no avail.Īfter going through the Apple Support boards, I could not determine a culprit and since there are no Apple Stores closer than the 330 miles to Seattle yet (soon in Spokane I hear), I resorted to taking my system to the only certified Apple Repair shop in Spokane.

We were hoping that it would fall under the Nvidia Graphics chip issue so that Apple would cover the replacement (note to self: on future MacBook Pro purchases: Get the full three-year AppleCare coverage!). Since the system would not even get past the initial boot phases, there was no way to even diagnose any other problems.

Which AppleCare concluded that it would not fall under the Nvidia replacement program. Which that meant it would be in the neighborhood of $1000-1200 to replace logic board ($800 logic board + labor)-which is not much less than the $1200-1400 my system in good condition was going for on ebay.

I’ve since gathered the necessary courage (and tools) to do it myself, so I could save the labor charges in the future. I also found a resource that I might consider as well if I had to face the issue of replacing the logic board again DT&T Service claims they can replace my model logic board with a refurb for $450. I was faced with trying to sell the dead MBP on Craigslist or ebay whole for $600 or try to recover more by dismantling it out and selling the parts on ebay and maybe be able to make up to $800. #2010 macbook pro 13 logic board install.
