Service Fixture
Summary: Use the service fixture (922-9102) to provide support to the logic board whenever removing and
replacing the left fan and heat sink in MacBook Pro (15-inch, Mid 2009). Failure to use the service fixture
will flex the logic board and strain components on it, which could damage the logic board.
Note: The fixture is not used with the MacBook Pro (15-inch, 2.53 GHz, Mid 2009). The logic board on that
product is a different shape and doesn't require the fixture.
Tip: The fixture is two-sided; one side is for fan removal and installation and the other side is for heat sink
removal and installation. The graphics below demonstrate the logic board positioned on each side of the
fixture.
