Your laptop’s screen is like the window to your digital world! If it’s acting up, it can really throw a wrench in your productivity. Make sure to grab a screen that matches your laptop’s dimensions (13.3″ WXGA) for the best experience. And remember, if you need help, you can always schedule a repair.
Step 1
Before diving into the repair, make sure to unplug any power cords and switch off that laptop! Working on a powered-up device could lead to a shocking surprise or even some serious damage. Safety first, friends!
The battery decided to take a little vacation and isn’t making an appearance in this snapshot.
– Alright, let’s flip that laptop over and give it a little twist so the battery is looking right at you!
– To pop out the battery, use one finger on each of those two sleek black slide tabs. Just give them a gentle push towards the center of the laptop to unlock it.
– Now, slide that battery towards you and lift it out like a pro!
Step 3
– Slide your fingernail or the flat end of a spudger into the gap between the laptop base and the hinge guard on the right side. Give it a gentle tug towards you until the guard pops off like a champ!
– Now, just rinse and repeat for the other guard. You’ve got this!
Step 4
– First things first, take off those hinge guards and set your laptop down flat on its back. Now, lift that screen like you’re about to dive into some serious work!
– Grab a pair of tweezers and gently peel away those six rubber cushions from the bezel that hugs the edges of your screen. You’re doing great!

Hearing a little crackle? Don’t sweat it! Your bezel is still in tip-top shape during this process.
– Slide a fingernail or the flat edge of a spudger into the gap between the bezel and the back cover of your laptop.
– Gently nudge the bezel towards you to pop it off the back panel.
– Keep working your way around the edges of the laptop until the bezel is completely free and clear.
Step 7
– Grab your trusty tweezers and gently latch onto the white connector at the bottom of the screen. With a steady hand, give it a little tug to the right to pop it off.
– Now, let’s do the same dance with the white connector that’s hanging out above the screen, connected to the webcam. A gentle pull to the right will do the trick!

– Gently peel off the remaining adhesive by lifting the yellow tape pieces with care. You’ve got this!
– Place those wires safely on the back panel to keep them out of harm’s way. Let’s protect those little guys!
