The board is not dead. One part on it is.
Component-level logic board repair for MacBook, iMac, Mac mini, iPhone and iPad — liquid damage, shorts, no power and dead displays.
A logic board is a few hundred components on a multi-layer circuit board. When a MacBook will not switch on, an iPhone will not charge or a screen stays black, the cause is nearly always one of those components — a power IC, a shorted capacitor, a corroded connector — rather than the board as a whole.
Board-level repair means finding that component and replacing it. The board is measured rail by rail against its schematic, shorts are located by current draw and thermal camera, and the failed part is lifted and replaced under a microscope with controlled hot-air rework. It takes skill and equipment, which is why many shops replace the whole board instead. Repairing it costs less, keeps your serial number, and on modern Macs and iPhones is the only way to keep the data that lives on the board.
Board-level repairs we handle
Liquid damage & corrosion
Ultrasonic clean, corrosion removal and rebuild of every rail the liquid reached.
Short circuits & no power
Power rails traced with a meter and thermal camera until the shorted component is found and replaced.
Chip & IC replacement
MOSFETs, fuses, charging ICs, PMICs and driver chips replaced under the microscope, with BGA rework where needed.
Backlight & display circuits
Backlight, T-CON and display-driver faults fixed on the board, not by swapping the whole screen.
Port & connector repair
Corroded or torn USB-C, Lightning, MagSafe and battery connectors replaced.
Data from dead boards
Where a board cannot be saved, repaired far enough to get your files off it first.
Common Board-level faults we see
MacBook
- No power, no charge light, no fan
- Liquid damage and corrosion under the shields
- Backlight and display-driver circuits
- Torn or corroded USB-C, MagSafe and battery connectors
iMac and Mac mini
- No power traced past the power supply to the board
- Display circuits on the iMac
iPhone and iPad
- Charging-IC faults
- Boot loops and dead phones
- Baseband faults causing "No Service"
What it costs and how long it takes
| Repair | Model | Price | Turnaround |
|---|---|---|---|
| Liquid damage & corrosion | MacBook, iPhone, iPad | Free quote | 2–4 working days |
| No power / short circuit | MacBook & desktop Macs | Free quote | 2–4 working days |
| Backlight & display circuit | MacBook | Free quote | 2–4 working days |
| Charging port & connector | MacBook, iPhone, iPad | Free quote | 2–4 working days |
The final price is a fixed quote, given after the free diagnosis and before any work starts. Nothing is repaired until you approve it.
Questions about Board-Level Repair
Something not covered here? Call or WhatsApp — we answer honestly, even when the answer is that it is not worth repairing.
A board replacement swaps the whole logic board for a new one. Chip-level repair finds the component that failed and replaces only that. The second costs less and keeps your original board, serial number and data.
When it is done properly, yes. The repaired circuit is tested under load before the device leaves, and the repair carries our 90-day warranty.
Severe corrosion across several layers, a cracked board or a failed processor can put it beyond economic repair. If that is the case we say so, and the diagnosis that tells you is free.
Keep it off and bring it in. A board that has never had power through it while wet is the easiest kind to save.
Usually two to four working days. Liquid-damaged boards need cleaning and drying before they can be tested, and we test properly before handing them back.
Yes. On M-series and T2 Macs and on iPhones the storage is part of the board, so repairing that board is what keeps your data. A replacement board arrives empty.

The diagnosis costs you nothing, and if we cannot fix it there is no fee. Worst case, you find out exactly what is wrong with your device.
