Hi I can’t seem to find the complete disassembly guide for model A1286 - only the initial teardown…does it exist?
Apple MacBook Pro “Core 2 Duo” 2.4 15" (Unibody) Specs Identifiers: Late 2008/Unibody - MB470LL/A - MacBookPro5,1 - A1286 - 2255 The machine I put up is a late 2008 and should be your machine. Just take a look at the guides for confirmation. MacBook Pro 15" Unibody Late 2008 & Early 2009
May be this will help
