    MacBook Air M1 (2020) Liquid Damage Cleaning Description
    If you spilled water, coffee or soda on your MacBook Air M1, turn it off and bring it in as soon as you can. We take the Mac apart, inspect the logic board for corrosion, clean it in an ultrasonic cleaner and test it. If cleaning brings the Mac back, that's the whole cost. If it doesn't, you don't pay, and we'll tell you honestly what it would need. The M1 Air's storage is soldered to the logic board and tied to its chip, so your data comes back only if the board does. We don't do micro-soldering in-house.

    Symptoms this repair should fix:

    • Spilled water, coffee or soda on the keyboard
    • Mac won't turn on after a spill
    • Keys or trackpad acting up after a spill
    • Sticky keys or residue under the keyboard
