    • Antes de iniciar este procedimiento, debes desactivar la función de arranque automático de tu Mac. El arranque automático se enciende en tu Mac cuando abres la tapa y puede activarse accidentalmente durante el desmontaje. Utiliza esta guía para desactivar el arranque automático.

    • Si tu MacBook está ejecutando Big Sur v11.1 o posterior, puede que no funcione la desactivación del arranque automático. Puedes proceder normalmente, pero asegúrate de desconectar la batería en cuanto estés dentro.

    • Apaga completamente y desenchufa tu MacBook Air antes de empezar. Cierra la pantalla y pon toda la portátil boca abajo.

    • Usa un destornillador P5 Pentalobe para quitar los siguientes seis tornillos :

    • Dos tornillos de 7.9 mm

    • Dos tornillos de 7.1 mm

    • Seis tornillos de 2.6 mm

    If the first thing you do is disconnect the battery, is it really an issue if you don’t (or can’t) disable auto-boot?

    maccentric -

    I agree, why disable Auto-Boot when the lid is closed and the battery is disconnected immediately? – I've never had an issue since 2016 when the feature was introduced.

    On my machine, the longest two screws were in the corners, while the other two long screws were in the middle. Perhaps previous service in the past had them replaced into the wrong place? In any case, the longest screws do seem to fit in either place. I guess 0.8mm is not very much of a difference. Seems like poor design if they could have used one size of screw.

    • Pon tus dedos entre la pantalla y la caja inferior y tira hacia arriba para sacar la caja inferior de la computadora.

    • Remueve la caja inferior.

    Das geht etwas schwer, da das Unterteil mittig noch von 2 Druckverschlüssen gehalten wird.

    • Quita la cinta que cubre el conector de la batería lo suficiente como para revelar el conector que hay debajo.

    • Utiliza un spudger para deslizar el conector de la batería en paralelo a la placa lógica y sacarlo de su zócalo en la placa lógica.

    Before the battery can be fully disconnected, the battery disconnect button needs to be held down. There is a gold button just above the battery socket, along with a small LED much like the 12” machines. Once this has been held down and the LED has switched off it is safe to remove the battery.

    Aaron Dalziel -

    This seems like an important step?

    maccentric -

    Also, seems like this should be done after the battery is disconnected, not before? Otherwise, wouldn’t the battery re-charge it?

    maccentric -

    What if the white LED dosent light up after pressing the yellow button again?

    Iron05 -

    I just performed this repair on my late 2018 mac air. I did click the gold button but saw no LED illuminated or otherwise. Question- after reassembly does the button get pressed again to connect the battery? Please clarify if this button is to be pressed and if it needs pressing again after the repair.

    All said - I pressed again after the battery connector clicked, assembled the back and all worked perfectly. The original issue was one dead port (no charge, no communication). The battery charge lightening bold icon was acting funny too. Genuis bar guy in Naperville said it was likely a logic board too. But it was not. The port was apparently confusing the logic board with regards to the charge function. Thanks Adam for saving me $440 and sending my computer back to Apple. I am 71 yrs young - who says an old dog can’t learn new tricks with good training!!

    William Lane -

    I didn't see Aaron's comment before completing the battery replacement. Afterwards, the computer would not turn on despite multiple SMC reset procedures. Upon double-checking the comments I see the importance of pressing the gold button. I pressed the gold button before disconnecting the new battery, then pressed it again after reconnecting for good measure. Computer booted!

    It would be good of iFixit to add this important step as most people probably don't open up every single comment on (seemingly) simple steps.

    Corey Matsumoto -

    Seconding Corey's comment. If paid more attention to the comment section, I would have avoided 15-30 minutes of panic. (BTW I did not notice any LED, but the golden button was easy to find).

    • Usa un destornillador T3 Torx para remover los dos tornillos de 1.4 mm que sujetan el soporte del cable de antena.

    • Remueve el soporte del cable de antena.

    • Inserta la punta de un spudger bajo uno de los cables de la antena cerca del conector.

    • Levanta directamente para desconectar el cable.

    • Repite lo mismo con el otro cable de antena.

    As you are putting everything back together, it is a bit wonky trying to reconnect these antenna. Patience is necessary and it helps if you reshape the cables so that the cables are like the picture.

    • Levanta la barra de la antena hacia arriba y fuera de la caja. Ten cuidado de no enganchar la barra de la antena en ningún cable o conector.

    • Es posible que encuentre resistencia en los clips que están en el centro de la barra de la antena y que la sujetan en la caja. Puedes tirar con fuerza sin dañar nada siempre que tires hacia arriba, perpendicularmente a la caja.

    • Remueve la barra de antena.

    Tip: keep the six big lid anchor screws in place until after you remove the antenna bar. You may have to use your plastics spudger to wedge underneath the vents and get leverage off the underside of the lid along the hinge area. I also had to remove the Logicboard so I could get the plastic spudger underneath the antenna bar and lift it up. It felt like it was going to break. Did not want to have to remove the logic board, but seemed that was the only way I could get underneath and pry the antenna out.

    Chris Leeds -

    Felt like I was going to break it! It will come out but it requires patience and light touch

    Lamar's suggestion to view the video is excellent. Though I saw it only in arrears, it was quite valuable. I found a spudge, used to GENTLY pry both side first, then begin lifting on your right side (with back of laptop facing you) while gently twisting slightly inward to do the trick.

    Probably the worst moment in this repair.

    • Utiliza un destornillador T9 Torx para quitar los seis tornillos de 4.9 mm que aseguran las bisagras de la pantalla a la caja superior.

    This was a T8 Torx driver for me

    jasonsedlaczek -

    It’s easier to leave 1 on each side in place open the MacBook fully and the remove them. This will help not damaging the bottom screen rim

    Torx T8 for me too on a MacBook Air 2020

    T8 for me as well on a 2019 MacBook Air

    • Levanta el MacBook y gira cuidadosamente la pantalla a un ángulo de 90 grados con la caja superior.

    • Las bisagras no deben moverse en relación con la pantalla y deben girar ligeramente fuera de la caja.

    • Manteniendo la pantalla en un ángulo de 90 grados con la caja, mueve la pantalla hacia abajo mientras mantienes la caja inmóvil, de modo que las bisagras se deslicen hacia fuera de la parte inferior de la caja.

    Can i skip antenna screw and battery to reallign the screen lid ? My screen lid is misalligned with the body about half milimeters

    can.cakmak -

    Yes. You can loosen the screen lid screws to re-align the top lid.

    Arthur Shi -

    (quote)

    "Keeping the display at a 90 degree angle with the case, move the display straight down while holding the case still, so that the hinges slide out the bottom of the case."

    (end quote)

    If you're moving the display straight down, how does it "slide out"? I do ge the point, but this instruction could stand a tad amount of re-wording.

    dlcatftwin -

    Also, on installing the new screen, the hinges on the new screen are very tight. It is easier to the install if you use some needle-nose or some tweezers to open the hinges to 90 degrees before trying to slot the new screen.

Conclusión

Compara la nueva pieza de repuesto con la original; es posible que tenga que transferir los componentes restantes o retirar los respaldos adhesivos de la nueva pieza antes de instalarla.

Thanks a lot for the useful guide! I have found some difficulties removing the antenna bar with this description, since there is no information to remove the 4 screws holding the antenna assembly in place. Additionally the force to remove the antenna is very high and may damage the complete antenna. I have used some angled tweezers to remove it and they came right our without any force.

Another question I have for the display replacement on a 2019 MacBook Air is how to get the true tone function and keyboard backlight working again. I have found no infos for the 2019 Air but some people had the same issue with 2018 and up MacBook Pros. Any suggestions on how I could fix this up? (Already made a SMC and PRAM reset)

Thanks in advance!

Josef G -

Thanks for the comments! We’ll fix the missing steps right up!

Arthur Shi -

Those are good questions. I would like to know also.

QuickTech -

May I know where to buy a replacement screen from a reliable supplier ?

Alan Li -

Hi Alan, we sell replacement screens in our store.

Adam O'Camb -

This repair guide was on point!! One thing I will point out is that once you install new screen and are ready to reconnect the battery cable, make sure it is in correctly. It should not be able to slide out without some pressure. I made this mistake and it caused several problems, the laptop was extremely slow and the fan kept running. Once it seated the battery cable correctly it worked perfectly.

Wanda Bullock -

Great Tutorial, helped in replacing my display assembly for the Macbook Air 2019 A1932

Sowrabh S -

Is the early macbook air 2020 display (A2179) compatible with this model of MacBook? (A1932)

Cristian Ocampo -

What can happen if I do not turn off the auto power on setting before screen replacement?

Ribbit Computers -

I have seen other sellers mention that True Tone and keyboard backlight will not work on 2019 MacBook Air version. They requested that I buy a different screen for a 2019 MacBook Air screen diy, can anyone confirm if they have experienced a similar scenario and if so what the turn out was.

ANNA WOLF -

Just completed and the guide was spot on and very helpful. I had T8 screws for the screen hinges, but otherwise everything was just as pictured and described. Thank you for this!
