Tutorial: Step by step

Step 1 Remove back cover

We start by removing the back cover which is attached. To detach it, we will heat it to about 60ºC during a minute approximately, thus we will soften the adhesive.

With the hot lid we introduce an opening tool and slide it around the contour to separate it from the chassis. We will take care not to insert the tool much so as not to damage the flex cables, especially on the right side seen from behind.

Step 2 Take off screen

Now we will perform the same process to take off the screen. We will heat it to about 60ºC for about a minute.

With the hot screen, we introduce an opening tool and slide it around the contour to separate it from the chassis. We will avoid the left side of the screen, which is where the flex cables of the screen are located.

Step 3 Separate screen

Before separating the screen we will have to disconnect the flex from the motherboard. Then, with the warm screen, we will open it carefully as if it were a book to finish off the side that we need.

Step 4 Separate chassis

To separate the inner casing of the chassis we will have to remove the twenty-two screws that hold them and then pry. Before separating them we will disconnect the flex from the keyboard connector.

Step 5 Disconnect components

Now we disconnect the components connected to the motherboard to be able to remove it later.

Step 6 Motherboard

Now all you have to do is unbolt the chassis plate.
