Where is the video for the A1286 with the back that does not have the easy battery removal? I ID'ed my Mac and got this model but it looks different? What??

@hickory - not far, as soon as you can see the bottom side of the trackpad, you can change it out there.

The trackpad on my MBP 15" is not recognizing clicks and I plan to order a replacement. Question - how much further is is necessary to go (following these videos) in order to get to that trackpad - or, do you have a video on that which I'm not finding? Thanks

This doesn't belong to the 2010 revision

I think there's 2 generations of A1286. I have a mid 2010 MBP (MacBookPro6,2) and it's model number is A1286. The bottom is different, along with the Airport/BT wiring harness.

I have an MBP also with model number A1286 but my back cover is one piece, not two as in the video! It appears that even for the same model number there are still differences.. :-(

@tyler - typically yes. You may want to verify the backlight cable didn't just come unplugged underneath first though.

the backlight on my keyboard is no longer working, will a replacement keyboard fix it?
