Repair or Replace
Once you locate the trouble you will most likely need to repair the unit, or mail it in to an
AppleCare Repair Center, depending on the service strategy in your region. Be sure to include
the CompTIA code, the troubleshooting steps you performed, and the results in the Service
Instructions section of GCRM and/or GSX.
If the symptoms point to a component on the logic board, use the block diagram at the end of
this chapter to help determine whether you need to replace the entire logic board.
Also be aware of the following parts that customers may replace themselves (known as Do-It-
Yourself parts):
Hard drive
AC adapter
RAM
Battery
