Step 4: Remove Back Panel

Using either the blue plastic opening tools or spudger tool, wedge one in between the back panel and the laptop.
Apply pressure upwards till the back panel pops off.
⚠️ If the back panel is difficult to remove and feels like it is going to break, DO NOT force it. Check to confirm that all the screws are removed before attempting again.

Step 6: Access Internal Components

The laptop is partially opened, showing the internal components including the motherboard, fan, and RAM modules.

The computer should be open with the motherboard exposed and internal components exposed. You should now be able to access the Fan and RAM. There are more necessary steps to follow before accessing the screen and keyboard.

Step 7: Disconnect Screen Cables

Unclip the two white wires connected to the computer chip on the motherboard by pulling the white wire toward you. ℹ️ Make sure you don't damage the terminals for the white wires on the computer chip by pulling too hard on them.
Remove the yellow tape securing the black cable that is connected to the motherboard. ? Be gentle when removing the yellow tape. It is very thin and can rip easily.
Once you have removed the yellow tape, unplug the black cable from its connection on the motherboard.

Step 8: Unscrew Hinges

The internal view of the laptop, showing the screen hinges. Red rectangles highlight four 5mm screws on the two hinges.

Use a Phillips #00 screwdriver to unscrew the four 5mm screws located on the two hinges.

Step 9: Separate Screen Case

The screen case is being slowly pulled away from the main laptop body, disengaging from the hinge sockets.

Slowly remove the screen case from the rest of the laptop by pulling the screen case out of the hinge sockets.

Step 10: Unscrew Screen Bezel

The front of the screen assembly. Red circles highlight four 5mm screws located at the top and bottom corners of the screen bezel.

Use a Phillips #00 to unscrew the four 5mm screws located at the top and bottom corners of the screen bezel.

Step 11: Pry Open Screen Bezel

A spudger or plastic opening tool is being used to pry open the screen bezel from the screen case.

Use the spudger or plastic opening tools to wedge it in-between the screen bezel and bottom of the screen case.
Apply pressure upwards to pop the screen bezel open.

Step 12: Unscrew Screen Mounting Screws

The screen assembly with the bezel removed. Red rectangles highlight four 5mm mounting screws securing the screen panel to the bottom case.

Use a Phillips #00 screwdriver to unscrew the four 5mm mounting screws that secure the screen to the bottom case.

Step 13: Disconnect Screen Cables from Bottom Case

Close-up views of the screen being lifted out of the bottom case, showing the white plug and black cable connections to the bottom case. A hinge is shown being unclipped.

Lift the screen out of the bottom screen case and locate the white plug connected to the bottom case.
Pull the wires away from you to unplug the wires from their connection on the bottom screen case. ℹ️ Be gentle when pulling on the wires, so that you don't disconnect them from their plug.
Unclip half of the black case hinge to release the wire from its casing.
