    • The rubber gasket should attach to the end of the heat sink as seen in the second picture.

Thanks i fixed my MacBook Air (11 inch) with this tutorial.

My MBA became very slow after a water spill over the keyboard.

Although Hardware check said everything was fine, i disabled the MB and found a spot with corrosion, after removing the corrosion and assembling it was on speed again. the water spill was some months ago so it had some time to corrode and show were a clean was needed :-)

Wat I real appreciatie is the accurate way of description of the connector disassembly :-)

Gert Jan Bollen - Ответить

Would it be possible to upgrade this machine to hold a newer logic board?

Get That Geek - Ответить

No. There are no compatible logic boards that I am aware of.
