The MacBook A1990 is the 15-inch MacBook Pro from 2018 and 2019, powered by Intel Core i7/i9 processors and AMD Radeon Pro 555X/560X discrete GPUs, with up to 32GB RAM and 4TB SSD options. It is the preferred machine for high-performance creative work in Mumbai — video production, 3D rendering, and software development. However, A1990 owners frequently report AMD GPU crash issues (causing rainbow horizontal lines), logic board failures from liquid damage, and battery swelling. Mac Repair Center in Kandivali West, Mumbai has repaired over 185 A1990 units with a specialised BGA rework capability for the AMD GPU — one of the most critical and technically demanding repairs for this model.

MacBook A1990 AMD GPU Rework in Mumbai

The A1990's AMD Radeon Pro discrete GPU is soldered onto the logic board. Thermal cycling over years of heavy workloads causes micro-fractures in the BGA solder joints, leading to graphical artifacts, kernel panics with GPU errors, and ultimately a black screen. Our BGA rework station at Mac Repair Center Mumbai thermally profiles the A1990 board and reflows GPU solder joints with precision. We also replace thermal compound and apply improved heat-spreader solutions to reduce long-term thermal stress.

MacBook A1990 Retina Screen Replacement in Mumbai

The A1990's 15.4-inch Retina IPS display at 2880×1800 is one of the most vivid laptop screens of its generation. Physical damage or internal panel failure requires full assembly replacement. We source A1990-compatible Retina display assemblies with True Tone support. Given the 15-inch size, replacement takes longer — typically 5–7 hours — but our Mumbai team ensures a flawless result.

MacBook A1990 Battery Replacement in Mumbai

The A1990 carries an 83.6Wh battery — the largest of the 15-inch Pro generation. Swelling is common after 4–5 years of use, causing the trackpad to stop clicking as the battery pushes against the chassis. Do not use a device with a visibly swollen battery. We replace A1990 batteries with premium-grade cells and calibrate the SMC post-installation.

MacBook A1990 T2 Chip and Logic Board Repair

The A1990 was one of the first MacBooks to include Apple's T2 security chip, which handles Touch ID, Touch Bar, SSD encryption, and Secure Boot. T2 failures can cause Touch ID to stop working, the device to fail Secure Boot, or the system to be completely bricked. Our Mac Repair Center Mumbai team handles T2-related issues through DFU recovery and component-level diagnosis.
