What is wrong with your MacBook Air 13.6?

"Service Recommended" on the battery

The cell has worn out. If the trackpad sits proud, stop using it, because the battery may be swollen.

What the warning means

Keys or trackpad not working

The keys are riveted into the top case, so a keyboard is a full rebuild. A trackpad fault is often a swollen battery underneath.

Keyboard and trackpad faults

Spilled water or coffee

Shut it down, unplug it and bring it in. Rice only gives corrosion more time.

What to do after a spill

Not charging

Could be the charger, the port or the charging circuit. We test all three before we quote.

What is different about this MacBook

The keys are riveted in

A keyboard replacement means a full strip-down and a new top case, not a part swap.

Storage is on the board

It cannot be lifted out, so if the Mac will not start, getting your data back is board work. Back up while it still runs.

MagSafe and USB-C

Two ways to charge help us narrow a charging fault down to the port, the cable or the board.

Good to know

The questions we are asked most about the MacBook Air 13.6.

Do you need my password?

For a screen, a battery or a keyboard, no - we test with the machine locked. For anything on the software side, macOS repairs and data work included, we do, because the work happens inside your account. Change it to something temporary if you would rather, and change it back when you collect.

Will I lose my data?

A hardware repair does not involve the drive, and we never erase a Mac without asking. No repair is risk-free, though, and we cannot accept liability for lost data, so make a Time Machine backup before you hand it over. If the machine will not start we can usually take a copy before we begin; ask when you drop it in.

Is it worth repairing an old MacBook?

Sometimes not, and we will say so. If the repair costs more than the machine is worth we tell you what it would fetch as it stands and what a replacement would cost, and you decide. We would rather lose the job than take money for a machine that will fail again in six months.

Apple say the whole logic board needs replacing. Do you?

Often not. Apple replace boards; we repair the component on the board that actually failed - a charging circuit, a backlight fuse, a shorted rail. It needs diagnosis first, and it is not always possible, but it is frequently the difference between a repair and a new Mac.

How long will it take?

A screen takes 1-2 hours and a battery 1-3 hours once the part is in. A keyboard takes 5 hours to a day, because on every modern MacBook the keys are riveted into the top case: the job is a full strip-down and rebuild into a new top case, not a part swap. Diagnostics and liquid damage take 1-3 days and board work 3-5 days - those are bench jobs and the time is real work, not a queue.

What warranty do I get?

6-12 months on parts and labour, and 12 months on a battery and its fitting.
