Apple Expands Self-Repair Program to Include M3 Macs
The tech giant's latest move supports the right-to-repair movement, offering tools and manuals for the newest Mac models.
- Apple has expanded its Self Service Repair program to include the latest MacBook Pro and iMac models powered by its M3 processor.
- The expansion allows users to access tools, parts, and repair manuals needed for self-repairs, aligning with the right-to-repair movement.
- Starting next month, Apple will make its remote diagnostic tool available to M3 Mac users, facilitating optimal part functionality and performance.
- The System Configuration process for all Mac models is being streamlined, eliminating the need for users to contact Apple support for repair validation.
- Despite its commitment to right-to-repair, Apple was recently found lobbying against a right-to-repair bill in Oregon that would prevent parts pairing restrictions.
