If Apple doesn’t receive your original part within 10 days, or if Apple technicians find that your issue was caused by accidental damage or unauthorised modifications, you’ll be charged the full value of the replacement part. For more details, see ERS terms and conditions for service covered by Apple’s Limited Warranty or an AppleCare plan or ERS terms and conditions for out-of-warranty service.
