MacBook logic board repair · Johannesburg
No power, liquid damage or a charging-circuit fault? We assess the logic board and related power components before recommending component repair, a compatible board replacement or another route.
The right repair
Tell us about the charger, lights, sounds and what happened before it stopped starting.
Request a power assessment 02Disconnect power where safe, stop repeated startup attempts and describe the spill and timing.
Request liquid-damage assessment 03The battery, charger, connector and logic-board circuitry may need separate checks.
Request charging assessmentAssessment before parts
A MacBook that will not start is not automatically a dead board. Adapter condition, battery behaviour, connectors and connected parts can affect the symptoms. The assessment determines which checks and measurements are needed.
Some board faults can be addressed at component level. The repairability depends on the fault, damage and condition of the board. We explain the proposed work and quote rather than promising that every logic board can be revived.
A compatible replacement may be considered when repair is impractical or uneconomical. Compatibility, availability, cost and the rest of the MacBook’s condition matter. Confirm the exact replacement option and its implications before approval.
Important files change the conversation. Tell us whether a backup exists and whether retaining data is the main priority. A board replacement and an attempt to recover files are separate decisions; recovering data is not guaranteed by approving a motherboard replacement.
Useful details first
Tell us the Air or Pro model, what happened immediately before the failure, whether liquid or a drop was involved and what the machine does now. Send photos where useful. Explain data needs before any board replacement is discussed.
A clear quote
Waived when the approved repair proceeds.
The fault, exact part and availability determine the price. Approve the written quote before repair.
Send your area and device size. Pickup is paid and arranged before collection.
Your repair journey
Add the MacBook model, symptoms, photos and your area.
We check the fault and explain the proposed repair options.
Confirm the part option, price and arrangements before work proceeds.
Follow your repair ticket and confirm collection or paid delivery.
Before you book
In this repair context, both terms refer to the MacBook’s main circuit board. The exact board and compatible repair options depend on the model.
No. Fault severity, damage and component availability affect repairability. We assess the board and explain realistic options before quoting.
Yes. The assessment fee is R400 and is waived when the approved repair proceeds. Proposed repair or replacement work is quoted before approval.
Do not assume it will. Explain important data and any backup before approving work, because a replacement board and data recovery are different repair decisions.
Switch the MacBook off, disconnect the charger where safe and arrange assessment. Tell us the spill type, timing and whether the machine was powered afterwards.
Timing depends on diagnosis, the proposed repair and parts availability. Confirm an estimate after the fault is assessed; no universal turnaround applies.
