logic-board repairs: i have a macbook pro 15 retina 2012 that has suddenly stopped booting properly i suggest it's either graphics or RAM. tried all the resetting steps with no solution. I don't think apple would repair, will just offer replacement or a mad quote. anybody knows of anyone that can do that sort of repair and not break the bank?
i also have 2 macbook air a1466 boards that have been water damaged and show no life so i'd like to get these repaired too.
any recommendations would be appreciated
thank you

Cheaper to get a secondhand board. Maybe ask on reddit? There was a place in loughton that were helpful to me so maybe worth a look in.

The macbook air boards may revive if left in an 99% ipa but depends if on board parts have short circuited.

these two boards cost me pretty much nothing. Found few people on eBay that would do the repairs for £99 each.. no fix no fee. Their feedback seems pretty good. They’re early 2015 so to buy a second hand they would cost ~150-170+ Could repair them and sell on (?)
