eillienroc Posted June 20, 2013 Share Posted June 20, 2013 Hello, since today the cable that goes from the motherboard to my screen has got damaged. In particulary in the hinge part, i can sometimes see something but my screen needs to stand at about 50 degrees. Is this cable replacable or do i need to buy a whole new screen?Where can i order a cable? i can see the screens can be bought cheap at laptopscreen?THX Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lalihifi Posted July 5, 2013 Share Posted July 5, 2013 Be careful with the screen and use a cable in holder (do not forget to put tape) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eillienroc Posted July 6, 2013 Author Share Posted July 6, 2013 What kind of tape do I need? What do you mean with 'use a cable in holder'? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lalihifi Posted July 6, 2013 Share Posted July 6, 2013 Cable must be placed exactly in the same position (as the original)Connector behind the screen is fixed usually with a tape (is not special , secure the cable in the connector) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eillienroc Posted July 7, 2013 Author Share Posted July 7, 2013 Ive seen that my cable has arrived in my country, I hope I can fix it this week.A laptop that serves as a desktop is not fun... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
clarenc3 Posted July 8, 2013 Share Posted July 8, 2013 In case the manual doesn't cut it, there's an official video here. You'll have to fast forward to relevant bit, but it should do the job. Good luck! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eillienroc Posted July 8, 2013 Author Share Posted July 8, 2013 The cable is here, im starting. Wish me luck Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eillienroc Posted July 9, 2013 Author Share Posted July 9, 2013 Finished, quite a fiddling to separate the screen bezel. But after all nothing broke and my screen is up and running again. I have a fully functioning laptop again Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Efe64 Posted July 22, 2013 Share Posted July 22, 2013 Tape? New cable? Doesnt warranty cover this? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eillienroc Posted July 22, 2013 Author Share Posted July 22, 2013 I didnt want to send my laptop off for a few weeks. I was able to continue word with an external monitor. btw I've voided the warranty by removing the warranty void stickers to determine what the problem was.Time is money, 2 weeks without my laptop wouldnt have been good for me.

nxh145 Posted June 18, 2014 Share Posted June 18, 2014 was the cause an accident or repeated use of the hinge? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
