@Max - the keyboard is built into the top case. You'll have to replace the top case, and that should fix the battery indicator as well.

hi, i had a coffee with milk thrown on my keyboard of my !1278 MacBook and after some days the light of the battery charge does not work any more and the keyboard has strange problems with the shift keys (sometimes the keys are uppercase even if all lights are off and there is no button pressed) also the on screen keyboard shows that shift is pressed even if it is not. i did not find the keyboard replacement video and i am not really confident in buying the spare and doing the change without the video... any pointers? thanks

@Mike - that's a weird one. I would try reseating the trackpad cable. It may be only partially connected. After that I would try a mouse just to make sure it works for that.

I replaced my magsafe board and put everything back together but now my track pad does not work fully. It will not control the cursor but the click works. I check the only cable attached to it and it is firmly in place. Is there another part that controls the cursor movement?

@PowerbookMedic - Sorry I thought comments were specific to the video. It's in the Logic Board Removal video. Around the 00:20 second mark. I think it's the cable for the keyboard backlight, but I'm not sure.

@Christian - in which video segment? I'm not seeing any cables being unplugged in the first three clips.

Does anybody know what the first cable that was unplugged is used for (around the 00:20 second part of the clip)?
