MacBook Pro 15" Retina (Late 2013-Mid 2015) Right Fan

Mi Problema

Both of the cooling fans on my 2015 MacBook Pro computer were making noise, the bearings were shot in each one. The only solution was to remove the defective fans and replace them with new fans. I had never done that on a MacBook Pro before, so I was a bit leery about the complexity of the repair work. I have done work on other computers before, but nothing as compact and challenging as this project seemed.........or at least I thought so.

Mi Solucion

The total time needed to remove and replace both of the cooling fans was about 2 1/2 hours. I took my time and made sure each step of the process was followed exactly as outlined in the iFixit Repair Guide for each cooling fan. With the aid of the Guide, I felt as though there was a "coach" with me all the way, watching every move to ensure there were no difficult challenges. Everything went PERFECTLY, each step had text description of the work as well as some EXCELLENT photos of what had to be done at that particular stage. I have to admit it was a bit intimidating, but the parts and tools I bought from iFixit were perfect, making things much simpler than I expected. Doin the work myself saved about $300 in repair costs and I know it was done RIGHT, thanks to iFixit. PERFECT!!!

Mi Consejo

On any repair/replacement project for your electronics, it pays greatly to rely upon the expert advice and repair guides from a highly reputable and credible source. That is exactly what iFixit is, plus the parts they provide are superior to other company's poor imitations. Why replace something with an inferior part that in all likelihood will be problematic in a short while. I have purchased parts from iFixit for my iPhones (batteries and screens) and now my MacBook Pro computer (cooling fans). I have had excellent results from all the work that I have done myself. The tools iFixit sells are very well made and essential to the success of each repair/replacement project. I have learned to rely heavily on iFit for their expertise, knowledge, repair guides, and obviously the QUALITY of their replacement parts. I could not be any more pleased with every aspect of my experiences with iFixit, they are truly the BEST source for repairing and replacing electronic device parts. I am a very happy and loyal customer.
