Hi guys, so here is the problem. Approximately, a year ago I spilled a small amount of coffee on to my keyboard. Ever since then, my keyboard had not been working properly. Therefore, yesterday I decided to bring it to a specialist to get it fixed. Other than the keyboard I also have cracked screen and battery problem.
Here is the condition of my macbook pro before and after the replacement.
Condition before replacement:
Condition after replacement:
So basically I only have these 2 problems now, the fan and the display. Can anyone help me?
Also, for the display problem, the specialist said that it is because of the VGA. However, if I want to get the VGA replaced, I also have to get the logic board replaced as well since it is attached to it. After I brought it back home, I tried to connect my macbook pro to an external display and the display on the external display is completely okay.
So, what do you guys think about it? is it true that it is because of the VGA (*just a reminder, the display was fine before the replacement)? or the logic board? or cabling problems inside?
Somehow I also have a hunch that this specialist is lying and trying to trick me to get a new logic board from him since it is an expensive piece of hardware.
What do you think? If he is lying then I am definitely going to complaint. However, since I do not have a good knowledge in hardware, I want to ask you guys first before complaining to him.
I have also uploaded two pictures for you guys to see my display problem. The reality(how I see it) and the picture of how it is supposed to look like.
Thanks a lot for your help guys. I really appreciate it.
Here is the condition of my macbook pro before and after the replacement.
Condition before replacement:
- Some keys of the keyboard are broken
- Keyboard backlight is fine
- Battery says 'Replace Now'
- Glass panel is cracked
- Display is completely fine
Condition after replacement:
- Keyboard is doing fine
- Battery is good
[*]The left and the right area of the backlight of the keyboard are not glowing as brightly as it is in the center of the keyboard (The specialist promised to fix this)
[*]The glass panel is not glued properly (Not sure whether using glue is the right procedure or not; anyway, the specialist promised to fix this as well)
[*]The fan constantly runs very fast and noisy in low temps.
[*]The display was fine. However, after the replacement I got a lot of 'shaky' red pixels displayed on my screen instead of black pixels (this is the most frustrating problem of all). For example, if you open this video, "http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c_mKVu4MGig" you will see that all the black area on the left and right part of the video are all red.
