Apple has expanded its Self Repair Diagnostics software SERVICE to 32 European countries, following its initial release in the United States late last year. This tool, which is also set to arrive in Canada soon, empowers users to diagnose and troubleshoot issues with their Apple devices.
Key Features and Benefits
Diagnostic Capabilities
The Self Service Repair Diagnostics software enables users to identify and troubleshoot faulty or broken components on one Apple product while running the software on a second Apple device. The tool provides step-by-step guidance through on-screen prompts, helping users determine if there is a malfunction and what parts are needed for the repair.
Accessibility
This tool is particularly beneficial for individuals who may not have the technical skills to repair their devices themselves. It confirms whether a part is indeed broken and needs replacement, which is valuable information for both users and unlicensed repair shops. Unlicensed repair shops can use this tool to diagnose issues and repair devices with genuine Apple parts, an alternative to visiting a licensed Apple repair center.
Genuine Parts and Tools
Apple’s Self-Service Repair program provides access to genuine parts, tools, and manuals for 42 Apple products, including iPhones, Macs, and Studio displays. Recently, the program has expanded to include new MacBook Airs with M3 chips. These resources are the same ones used by staff at Apple Stores and Apple Authorized Service Providers, ensuring high-quality repairs.
Availability and Languages
The Self-Service Repair Diagnostics tool is now available in 33 countries and 24 languages. This broad availability ensures that a wide range of users can benefit from the program, making self-repair more accessible and convenient.
