Laptop LCD screen repair is very simple to do if you do it relatively often. Remember practice makes perfect, it will get easier if you do it often. If you are a do it yourselfer you need to consider several things before taking on the challenge of taking apart your laptop or notebook to fix your LCD screen.

First of all, every laptop is constructed differently and a big challenge when you first start replacing LCD screens is taking apart the plastic and getting to the screen itself. Most if not all laptops today have plastic that snaps together and this can be tricky at first because you have to know where to pry the plastic so not to damage it.

Of course they all snap differently. To get to the screen assembly many notebooks or laptops have you taking the top case off. Depending on the notebook or laptop the keyboard need to come off. To get to the screen hinges in some laptops or notebooks its required to take out the DVD drive.

Opening your laptop maybe fearful but it is an easy task to replacing the LCD screen. Very important you need to be very careful when handling the LCD. The "do not touch" area at the top rear has warnings all over it. Make sure you follow these warnings! You will not damage the screen if you accidentally brush your finger on the area but it is a sensitive area and should be treated as such.

There are 2 cables that you will be working with - the data cable which provides the signal to the LCD and the back-light cable that gets plugged into the inverter (the small circuit board that sits on the bottom of the LCD screen).

The cables are taped and routed nicely around the screen. It is very important to use anti-static tape when attaching your new screen on.

Now do the above steps in reverse and you got yourself a new working LCD screen.
