The Nvidia video chip in the A1260 unfortunately has a serious problem, mine took 7 years to fail

I considered reflowing the original logic board with a heat gun but eventually decided to replace the logic board. My only problem was detaching the small 2 pin connectors.

Read the instructions carefully, I missed how to detach the small connectors and broke the connector on the PRAM battery.

And please make more parts available in the EU store!
