Hi everyone, welcome to HowFixit. In this video guide,
I gonna show you how to replace a fan on MacBook Pro 16 A2141 (2019) laptop
To disassemble MacBook Pro 2019, you will need the following tools:
Screwdriver set (Torx T3, T5, T8, Pentalobe 1.2mm) Suction cup
Plastic opening tools Tweezers
I also recommend using a magnetic mat during the repair process, which is especially useful in case
of this laptop. Throughout this disassembly, keep track of each screw so you can put them
back in the right places - this will help successfully reassemble your device. And
don't worry about losing any of screws, all of them will definitely remain on the magnetic mat.
In the description, I left links where to buy all necessary tools.
Turn the laptop over and remove all the screws on the bottom cover.
Press a suction cup into place of the lower case and pull up to open a small gap. Slide the corner
of an plastic tool into the gap and begin to open around the nearest corner and then halfway up the
side of the MacBook Pro. This releases the first of the hidden clips securing the lower case.
Lift the front edge of the lower case and pull firmly to slide the lower case towards you.
Pull first at one corner, then the other.
These clips hold the bottom cover of your MacBook Pro firmly in place.
Use only a plastic tool to lift the battery power connector.
Peel back tape covering the cable connector, then pry up the locking tab and disconnect the cable.
Peel up the rubber strip from the adhesive holding it to the fan, but don't remove it.
If the fan is very noisy or doesn't work at all - you need to replace the fan.
You can find a compatible fan for the replacement part number 610-00354-01 and 610-00353-03. Also,
in the description, I left a link where you can buy new fan for MacBook Pro 2019 laptop.
Well, that's all, you were on HowFixit and see you guys next time!
