Screen Replacement Instruction 

Our LCD replacement service is more advisable than buying the screen yourself, this is a free fitting service, and gives you a 90 day warranty, as opposed to the 30 day warranty on screens fitted by the client.

Please power OFF the computer and remove the battery and AC power connection.

LCD Circuits contain HIGH VOLTAGE, and are dangerous to work with

Screw removal!

The bezel that covers your screen is usually attached by four screws. For aesthetic reasons, they are covered with a piece of tape that is the same colour as the plastic covers.

Identify those pieces of tape and remove them.

Next remove the screws from the four corners

Bezel removal 

After the four screws have been removed, pry open the screen cover. 

This can require a bit of skill, you can start it up with your nail, (this is least likely to damage the plastics)

Small plastic latches attach the bezel to the screen cover. 

They pop open under pressure. Be careful, too much pressure can break the bezel.

Remove the Screen 

Identify and remove the four screws in the four corners that hold the LCD. 

Next, find the two thick (High Voltage) wires connector for the screen backlight. 

On some models this can be on the left side. 

When done, lay the screen face down on the keyboard and try to identify the Data port ribbon cable. 

This is the last connection between the screen and the notebook.

Removing the Data port connector

The cable that brings data to the LCD is always a ribbon cable with a wide connector that can contain from 10 to 30 pins.

Please unplug this connector carefully using a flathead screwdriver and applying pressure gradually on both ends of the connector. 

Putting pressure only on one end of the connector can create a rotation motion that will bend the pins. 

The connector must be unplugged gradually from each end.

To install the new screen, perform the previous steps in the opposite order.
