Typical cost to repair liquid damage on MBP

I spilled about a tablespoon of windex onto the keyboard of my 1.66 i7 MBP. Of course it was on when it happened. I turned it off and flipped it over for a few hours. I was getting ready to go out of town when it happened so I had to close it up and take it on a plain with me. When i got to my destination the next day I tried to start it up and it was dead. I have since read all of the I should have done, but didn't.
I was looking to get an idea of the different cost scenarios to get it fixed. Like if it needs a new logic board, etc... I understand it might be better to get a new computer but I don't have 2800 for another 17'' MBP.
Does anyone have experience having a MBP repaired after liquid damage? How much did they pay and what was wrong with it? How long did it take? Was it extra to retrieve the data?

Sure ever situation is different but it gives me an idea when people like thomas share their experience. As I also said before I'm out of town. Actually out of the country and wanted to get an idea of what i'm up against when I return. If you don't know or have not experienced this problem no need to reply with snarky comments. ala ''In my case it might cause next to no damage and the cost is minimal. In your case it may have fried the unit completely so it will cost more.''
Lets give the egos a rest boys.
I'm just looking for people who want to share their experience with this problem.
Then provide the exact condition of your Mac

Price to repair liquid damaged MacBook Air (early 2014)

Anybody know what it will cost to repair a early 2014 13 inch MacBook Air with liquid damage? Is the repair a complete replacement of the innards? Is there an additional charge if the display is liquid damaged (not cracked)

It will be very expensive. You will need to ask at your local Apple Store. We don't have that specific information.

Liquid damage to MBP

While enjoying a cup of coffee at my local coffee shop, a fellow coffee drinker accidentally knocked over my cup of coffee and it spilled all over my keyboard. I immediately wiped it off and then let it dry out. The good news: the computer seems to be working just fine. The bad news: the backlit keyboard is no longer backlit. There is a faint light behind a few of the keys but that's it. If I took this to the Apple Store, is there anything they could do to get the keyboard to light up again? Thanks in advance for your help

Sure, but you'll be charged for the repair, of course.

Specialists that repair water damaged iPhones in the UK

My iPhone4 survived being in the washing machine ( !!). Worked when I pulled it out after 10m inside. I left it to dry for two weeks with silica gel. Continued to work for nine months.
Then I went running. It started to rain so I slipped the iPhone up my sleeve... where sweat appears to have been wicked from my skin into the iPhone via my running top. Result: after two weeks drying out the screen had clear imperfections and damage although everything appeared to work. A month later: the screen backlight failed and wouldn't revive. I suspect salt has damaged the screen.
What it needs is a complete clean and probably a new screen.
Other than Apple, where in the UK repairs liquid damaged iPhones? I'd like to go for a firm that specialises so they do a full clean of the insides -- to reduce the chance of more damage happening later due to salt corrosion -- as well as replacing the obviously currently damaged screen components.
Suggestions?
All appreciated. thx.

Macbook air apparently has liquid damage???

Need advice please! Bought a macbook air from littlewoods in july 2010. Had problems after one month with the airport - it would not switch on, or if it did turn on it would turn off again within minutes (note: i'm not talking about connecting to wifi here - the airport itself would not turn on). Then a few weeks ago, it got even worse to the point where it doesnt turn on at all. This is a major problem for me because i need an internet connection for my work at university. I therefore temporarily used tethering to my iphone.
Next, one day last week, the macair switched off itself and would not turn on. It also went extremely hot - so hot i couldnt even touch it.
So i called up the mac support line the next day but when i tried to switch the laptop on, it wouldnt even flicker - not even with the charger in. I was told that it was a hardware problem and take it into a mac store, which i did
At the store, the mac turned on (i assume because it had time to cool down) but the airport was still problematic, so they took it in to run further tests and determine the cause
Today, i received a call where apple say that the airport problems are caused by liquid damage, even thiugh i DEFINITELY did not drop any sort of liquid on it.
They also said it will cost £1539.60 to repair (as liquid damage is not covered in the warranty) because everything needs replacing (including things like the speakers) - everything else however, works fine!!
There is no way that i dropped any liquid on the notebook. I've barely even used it!
Since apple will not repair or accept it back under the warranty, i talked to littlewoods and they said they cannot accept it back either.
We haven't even paid for it yet - the first installment is in july.
What would you advise?? I am considering putting in a complaint because in my opinion, it is a manufacturing problem.. Or when it went hot, the parts must have melted. I certainly did not cause any damage to it :S
Please help!!

Your best bet is to take this up with a manager at Apple Customer Support.

C7 apparent liquid damage

Dear nokia,
My C7 was working fine till the last 15 days.
The problem started wen wen one night i put my phone to charge and wen i woke up in the morning i was amazed to find that the device had remarkably heated up a lot and the charge was only about 35%.
I restarted the phone and everything seemed to work fine again and it got to full charge in an hour.
This continued on for a few days and den apparently my device became totally alright.
Even now it is working all right.
Wen i got free next week i checked in Nokia care and they said that my fon had liquid damage and my board was short circuited. They said even though under warranty, it will cost around Rs. 9000.
I dont understand i never did put my phone in water, never wetted it in rains, not even it ever got wet while it was in my pants. Then how come liquid damage come to it. You cannot blame for atmospheric moisture to got inside.
Its simply not the fault from the user end, den why do i pay for it.
My warranty epires next month. What do i do?
Plz help.

Hi abhisarpanda,
Thanks for your post and welcome to the forum.
Please contact your local Care line who will be able to give you more information on why the phone was not repaired under warranty. They will be able to give you a more thorough explanation and discuss with you what to do from here.

How much does it costs tp repair a screen for ipod touch?

how much does it costs to repair the screen to my ipod touch 4th generation

By third party we mean a place that is not an Apple Authorized Service Provider (AASP) or Apple Authorized Distributor (AAD) - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1434
I browsed the iFix web site. Nowhere does it specifically state they are an AASP and usually places that are will make that immediately obvious. Their FAQ mostly mentions how to set up a franchise and does not state that repairs made by them will not void any Apple warranty. Apple is very particular about anybody working on their devices and if they detect somebody else has worked on a device (even if they do a good job) they could refuse to even look at a device again (warranty or not) in their shop. I'm not passing judgement on other companies, I'm just observing this so the OP knows in advance.
http://support.apple.com/kb/index?page=servicefaq&geo=United_States&product=ipho ne
"An iPhone that is ineligible for warranty service may be eligible for Out-of-Warranty (OOW) Service. For example, an iPhone that has failed due to damage or liquid damage is ineligible for warranty service but eligible for OOW service. However, certain damage is ineligible for OOW service, including catastrophic damage, such as the device separating into multiple pieces, and inoperability caused by unauthorized modifications."
The underlined clause could be interpreted by Apple to be any sign of anybody else having worked on a device. This isn't just Apple. If somebody is going to warranty a service then they want to make sure they are not also covering anything that might have been caused by somebody else working on the device previously.

Small Liquid Spill on MBP Keyboard... Now not working. Any Help?

I recently spilled a very small amount of liquid on my MBP keyboard (~3 drops), and now the keyboard does not work at all. Any diagnoses or solutions?? I really can't seem to believe that such a small amount of liquid could damage it so much, but maybe I'm missing something! Thanks in advance!

What you are seeing happens when the ambient light level is bright enough so the Mac judges that you don't need keyboard backlighting. If you don't agree and want backlighting anyway, download and install [Lab Tick|http://labtick.proculo.de> to gain full manual control over it.

Liquidated Damages calculation in Purchase Order

How to capture the Liquidated Damages calculation in Purchase Order in SAP MM module?
I have seen many posting with the answer that this is not standard process.
But this is very important process in Purchasing and Liquidated Damages is very important process, if in SAP standard system it is not available then how we can cater this required.
Regards

Lets assume delivery date is 1 May and the vendor delays the shipment by 10
days, the GR takes place on 11 May. So the vendor has to pay liquidated
damages for 10 days. We can agree in beginning with the vendor how much
liquidated damages will be charged per day.
So now we can create two new fields in PO. One with Liquidated damages
charges/day and one with total liquidated damages. In this field, it should
look for the days difference between the GR date and delivery date in our
case 10 days * Rs.1000/day = Rs.10,000. This formula needs to be inputted in
the total liquidated damages.
Now we can directly get it posted to IR or if we want it to hit the
material cost, we need to add new condition type to calculation schema and
apply this cost to the condition type by ammending the PO.
Hope I am helpfull.

Testing for signs of life after liquid damage

Hey all,
I picked up a Macbook from work yesterday (repairs department) that had been returned a month or so ago as being 'dead' but upon inspection (smelling the keyboard!) I realised coffee had been spilled on it. Long story short, the Macbook was sitting in its box since then in spite of the liquid damage so it's probably been beavering away down there messing things up. As I was, of course, not present when the liquid damage occurred, I've no way of knowing if the machine instantly turned off due to a short or maybe carried on running and was shut down and then after that refused to turn on, or if they were lying/misinformed when claiming it was dead.
Anyway, I've torn it down all the way to and including the keyboard, cleaning all the components along the way and everything looks in top-top condition now, albeit still taken apart.
There's only one problem:
The machine doesn't appear to turn on, but it does charge. Also, the battery indicator light works properly. However, the dvd drive does not make its startup mechanical noise, nor does the hard drive power up. The fan doesn't spin either, but I'm not sure if the fan only ever begins to spin when the temperature reaches a certain point. The led light on the front does not glow at all, either. According to the Apple site, if the system has no ram in it the led should blink once per second but it doesn't do that. I dunked the logic board in shallow rubbing alcohol last night and lightly scrubbed it with a soft toothbrush and left it to dry overnight and it looks clean now. I'm about to plug it back in to see if it starts but I was wondering:
*What are the minimum components needed to be present in a Macbook to check the logic board is functioning?*
With most PC laptops, they'll still turn on the hard drive/screen/etc without any ram or cpu installed but there'll be nothing onscreen, whereas I've come across others that will show absolutely no signs of life at all if the hard drive is set to slave when it should be master!
Do I need to have the screen, drives, and all other bits all fully connected to see if the machine will at least turn on? I'm worried the power button on the keyboard could be faulty but have no way to check that at this moment.
Thanks for any replies(as long as they're not about voiding warranties)!

Thanks for mentioning the hardware test, I didn't think about trying that (assuming I get it to boot), but did you read my post properly?
Probably not, so I'll summarise it (it was a bit wordy):
I have a Macbook that someone spilled coffee on. But in spite of completely disassembling it and cleaning all traces of coffee (isopropyl for circuitry, soapy water for everything else), it won't turn on at all. There is still some coffee inside the keyboard between the two layers, and I believe this coffee is the problem as the laptop charges the battery but won't turn on at all so I think the keyboard is not sending the power-on signal properly.
I was trying to find out *whether Macbooks can be turned on without having to reconnect all the parts* (monitor, ram, drives, etc) just so I know that it at least powers up. Since posting, I've now reassembled the entire Macbook except for the keyboard so I suppose it's largely moot. I'm thinking of buying a new keyboard from eBay to see if that will power up the machine. If it doesn't, then I'll give up.
The bit about warranties has become standard practice for me and was to stop people replying along the lines of "but you'll void your warranty" or giving their two pence about how they'd never EVER void their warranty. It's really annoying because it makes the poster sound silly, and only brings disappointment when I get an email and think I'm getting an answer.
I'd like to believe anyone with an ounce of intelligence knows when they're doing something that will void their warranty, and I seriously doubt there are many cases where someone has unknowingly voided their warranty by opening up or repairing something they shouldn't, only for someone to reply and show them the error of their ways before they realise!
