Apple on Tuesday once again expanded on its self-service repair program, this time including Mac desktops with Apple Silicon processors. Parts, tools, and repair manuals are now available for the iMac, Mac mini, and Mac Studio with the M1 series of chips in particular, and the Studio Display that launched alongside the Mac Studio.
Availability of parts for Mac desktops and the Studio Display appears to be limited to the U.S. for now, despite the program expanding to Belgium, France, Italy, Germany, Poland, Spain, Sweden, and the UK earlier this month. Repair manuals for Mac desktops with Apple silicon and the Studio Display can be found on Apple’s website.
The tool kits for the Mac desktops and the Studio Display can be rated from Apple’s self-service repair store for $49 and must be returned after seven days.
Apple says the program is intended for individuals who are “experienced with the complexities of repairing electronic devices.” For the “vast majority” of customers, Apple says visiting a “professional repair provider with certified technicians who use genuine Apple parts” is the “safest and most reliable way to get a repair.”
Stay tuned for additional details as they become available.
