Any users brave enough to try this battery replacement on their own? I’m looking at it to get myself prepared for what is expected in the future. I can see myself keeping this M1 MBA for a long time so replacing the battery is going to be in my future.

Best of luck to anyone out there trying this! It doesn’t look particularly difficult.

These new MacBook Airs definitely have a simpler battery replacement procedure than other MacBook models. Whenever you need the M1 MacBook Air battery replacement guide, you can find it here! Have fun fixing!

Carsten Frauenheim -

This one is pretty easy - easier than other laptop battery replacements I've done. The hardest bit is getting the speakers out, you definitely need a hot air gun or hairdryer.

Try it! What could possibly go wrong?

I have a 2020 MacBook air that got water damage. It was still working until the battery died but then wouldn't charge. I've replaced the screen as it had water marks and the battery looked like it had shorted out (there was blisters on it). So I replaced the battery too. But it's still not turning on after charging it overnight. I've doubled checked everything is connected inside. Is there's anything I need to reset or check to get it to charge up and turn on?

Ryan, you could look into trying a new USB-C board, because if that doesn't function due to liquid damage then the new battery may not charge. Especially because you said:

It was still working until the battery died but then wouldn't charge.

Best of luck in your repair!
