Where can I find the right I/O replacement board, with HDMI, USB, SD?
I’ve been trying to source the right HDMI, SD, and USB board for my Macbook Air 13” Mid-2013 model, but can only find the left I/O magsafe board. Is the right board available, anywhere?
Update (01/10/2019)
Hmm, maybe I have the wrong model.
I’ve opened up the laptop, and the right I/O board is a separate board, connected by cables. I’ve even swapped it out previously for another (to test, but had to swap back).
I’m trying to find my exact model, but not apparent.
Here’s a screenshot of my system information. Are you able to tell the exact model from this information?
Bottom of laptop says:
A1466, EMC 2632
FCC ID: QDS-BRCM1072
(maybe the bottom case is incorrect or was swapped previously, I don’t know. I’ll try to get a picture of the inside shortly)
Update (01/10/2019)
Ah jeez, inside says Model A1496! (bottom of case said A1466). Ugh, head scratch relieved!
Here’s pics of the inside, if anyone is curious. Ahh, thanks, heh.
Still looking for the part, if anyone knows its whereabouts. Don’t even see this listed as a valid ID on any part lookup site, part doesn’t seem easy to find either.
Looking through the options, it must either by a Mid-2013, or Early 2014 laptop. Possible order numbers:
Mid-2013: BTO/CTO
Early 2014: MF068LL/A
MacBook Air (13-inch, Mid 2013)
Going with that, why does my board show a separate Right I/O board, but supposedly this family during this period has an I/O board integrated with the logic board? Any help, please
Update:
Had board images reversed, yep, part of the logic board. Thanks :)
Is this a good question?

Ah! You have your left and rights reversed. Just like Stage Right is the left from the audience view and Stage Left is the right.
We reference the view from the top, while when you are looking in from the bottom the right side in your view point is the left side.
