10 - 30 minutes

Moderate

My Problem

The original battery was unable to hold a charge for more than a few hours. Apple couldn't help since it's an obsolete product for them.

My Fix

I watched the short video before I began, just to ensure I knew what I was doing. Then I began. Actually, it was more simple than I thought. It took longer to remove the screws than to remove and replace the battery itself. Once installed the laptop powered straight up. The battery even had a reasonable charge on it.

My Advice

This was my first experience using iFixit. If I needed additional parts or upgrades I'll certainly consider them for parts and guidance information.
