Warning

  • Read Battery Safety and follow workspace and battery handling guidelines before you begin.

After you’ve completed all removal and reassembly steps and installed Apple Service Utility on a Mac, learn how to initiate the TrueDepth Camera Configuration process at support.apple.com/self-service-repair.
