On the genius reservation confirmation web page, there is this message,
" To service your Mac, Find My Mac will need to be temporarily turned off."
That should be good idea to help them access the Mac.
Some apparently Erase; some do not erase before service.
The inability to 'turn off' Find My Mac will not prevent Apple's ability to fix your Mac.
