Liquid Damage

Liquid and electronics don’t mix. MacBooks have “always on” power rails which means even if you turn off the device, liquid still has the potential for causing damage, and corrosion will almost always set in within a couple hours of spilling liquid on your device. This is serious as corrosion has the potential of destroying critical components inside your device. 
 
The good news is that we are liquid damage repair specialists and specialize in component level logic board repair. We can repair your damaged logic board for much less than the cost of replacement. 

No Power

No power can be caused by a multitude of issues. Sometimes no power can be caused by something simple such as a corroded trackpad cable or bad battery, but more often than not, it indicates a issue with the logic board. The picture shown is a image of a MacBook Air logic board with a failed capacitor on its main power rail.

No Backlight

Hear the startup chime but see nothing on the screen? Shine a flashlight through the PC logo on the back of the screen. You will usually be able to see a faint image on the screen. This is caused by the screen’s LED strips not receiving power which is incredibly common after liquid damage. It typically is caused by a failed backlight driver chip, which supplies power to the screen. More often than not, the corrosion from liquid damage will also destroy a trace leading to the chip which will require a very small jumper wire.

Not Charging

Not charging after liquid damage is relatively common. It can be caused by both a battery issue or a logic board issue. If your battery displays a percentage greater than 5%, the issue is more likely to be a logic board problem, while a percentage below 5% (Most often 0% or 1%) is more likely to be a battery issue.

Random crashing

Random crashing can be caused by a number of things. On liquid damaged devices, random crashing is usually caused by corrosion under the CPU and RAM chips. 
 
In addition, there are a few MacBook models with design defects that are subject to random crashing as well. See the links below for more info. 

Trackpad and keyboard issues

Trackpad and keyboard issues are common after liquid damage. On most MacBooks made after 2012, the trackpad acts as the “brain” for the keyboard, so if the trackpad gets damaged, the keyboard will also stop working. Dead and sticky keys are also common after liquid damage.

We usually won’t know for sure until we see it. It depends on what is wrong with the device and what year/model it is. Most devices we get in need logic board repair either do to random failure or liquid damage. We charge flat rate prices for all logic board repairs based on the year and model. Once we get your device in and diagnose it, we will mail you with a definite price, 

Usually between 3-7 days for logic board and liquid damage repairs. Some repairs are completed the day the device arrives. Some devices really throw us through a loop and can take longer.

We do not charge any repair attempt or bench fees if your device isn’t fixable. In the event that your device isn’t repairable, or if it doesn’t make economic sense to repair it, we’ll let you know and send you a invoice for return shipping.
