So great Tim. Changed my first HP Laptop screen for my son to go to college. I am disabled and recovering from an awful traumatic brain injury. I didn't have the money to have an old laptop fixed. Your video empowered me to go ahead and try. Thank you. Now I can help others believe in themselves for computer repairs like this. Amazing!
Brilliant fix, Tim! Laptops and phones are becoming more and more difficult to service and repair, however I do not believe it is because the devices are becoming thinner, it is primarily the manufacturers attempts to make it as difficult as possible for users and technicians to do what used to be more straightforward and easy repairs. For example, using tape and glue instead of small screws etc. This has definitely increased the chances of breaking screens, bezels etc during the replacement process. This has been one of the most honest and professional videos I have seen on laptop screen replacement. Thank you for your patience in your explanation and demonstration in this video, your efforts are well recognized. A fellow tech.
I appreciate the comments. As usual for whatever reason the pc repair is evolving. We as techs just need to evolve ourselves and roll with the punches.
It isn't a conspiracy, it's engineers making it cheaper. 100%. They do not care who repairs. Two strips of tape are considerably cheaper than a hinge that extends up the sides of the laptops when you are talking about manufacturing 50,000 of the laptops. Follow the money.
This was extremely helpful. My first time replacing a screen of any kind and this could not have been more helpful. You didn't rush through anything and explained everything clearly and patiently. I know after probably doing this a hundred times it would've been easy to just gloss over everything but I really appreciate that you went into detail. Thank you again.
I'll admit, the first time I encountered a laptop screen replacement like this, I did exactly what you said... used my heat gun and warped the frame a bit. This video is a GREAT example of working smarter, not harder. Keep up the great work!
TIM YOU ARE AWESOME!!!! I had dropped my less than 2 yr old HP that I spent $700 on. The sceen shattered. I ordered a replacement screen from amazon. I've never changed a computer screen. I found your video and watched it, step by step. The entire process took less than 45min. Thank you for walking us through this. Great job sir. THANK YOU
Thank you for this video. I have spent the last 2 hours trying to find a video that would help me replace the screen on my laptop. EVERY SINGLE ONE of the videos that I watched basically said that after you remove the bezel, "Just remove these few screws and the screen will pop right out!" I fought for probably an HOUR with my computer screen to try to get it to come out. No luck. I was just about to give up when I came across your video, and realized that I have the EXACT SAME MODEL. Finally, when you mentioned the adhesive on the back of the screen, I realized what the problem was. I guess what I am trying to say is that a small miracle happened when I found your video. I am not very tech-savvy, and this is the first time I have replaced the screen on a laptop, so having the help of someone who ACTUALLY knows what they are doing is wonderful. I am about to order the replacement screen. Also, I am typing this on the laptop that has the broken screen after I connected it to a TV, so I know it is just a screen problem. Thanks!
I've always been decent at computer repair, not much makes me nervous about taking them apart. Until the LCD panel on one of my laptops cracked after me knocking it off the desk. I had no clue what I was doing to replace it, until I found this video. Thanks so much for taking it slow and showing all the detailed steps. Allowed me to safely and successfully replace my screen without issues. Awesome tutorial!
I am a 46 year old woman that has no experience whatsoever in computer repairs! i ordered the screen online and watched a couple of videos but couldn't get it right. After watching your video and pausing at every step I fitted the new screen and it works perfectly! Thankyou very much! 10/10 for explanation and easy to follow instructions!
I have changed several screens for laptops over the years, and this is the 1st time I met one like this. Followed your directions (without the tape snaping on the right... lol) and had my screen replaced. THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU!!!
Great video, I just changed my daughters screen , a drop at University cracked the darn thing. Impressed with the step by step, I wouldn’t have been successful without the help. Keep up the good work
I was so so afraid of fixing my laptop screen at home- as I am in NO WAY HANDY- AT ALL. I got stuck with another tutorial for an older HP and your advice regarding the adhesive really helped me thanks so much! My computer is like new again
Thank-you so very much. Old grandma just replaced her grandson's computer screen thanks to you! I've never done one before, but I watched your video several times, ordered the tapes, the screen and now it's done. I used nail tools instead of ordering the one you had, worked great. The touch screen isn't as responsive, but the mouse is working. From the looks of the broken corner, it took a hard tumble. Thanks again Tim!
@@TimsComputerRepair If the touch screen isn't responding exactly, should I pull it apart again & reseat the plug? Other than that the screen is working. Thanks again for your help.
I know it's been a couple of years, but I just wanted to thank you for this video. Just replaced a client's screen on one of these, and it saved me a lot of headaches. So thank you. Oh, but one thing. On the particular model that I had, it had one of those horizontal retention bars on the screen connector, so people should check for that after pulling off the tape covering the screen connector. If it's there, just use a small (preferably plastic) pry tool to gently lift it up, then remove the cable.
Thank you so much! You saved me a lot of money. HP wanted $481 to replace a screen for a computer that only cost $569. I got a replacement monitor and a tool kit off Amazon and did it myself in about 15 minutes.
You're an absolute LIFESAVER!!! My screen had a big issue with flickering after getting an accidental knock from the corner of my table. The connection got loose and I couldnt figure out how to get into the screen! Thanks so so much for this video!!!!
Absolutely perfect! Only video i found that showed me the illusive sticky tape behind everything. One note to whoever cant seem to find it. On my laptop (15z-cw100), the tape was only barely visable from below (a tiny tab) and was white instead of black
Thanks for this! I have lost count of how many screen's I have replaced over the years.... But this was the first one I have done that was bonded like this. Exactly as you said the tape was at the bottom, came out with ease!
Thank you sir for this video. It is the only one I found that talked about the tape behind the screen. I had a Duh moment after separating the screen into multiple layers trying to get it off the cover. Life saver! Also, thank you for the tape recommendation, I was trying to figure out how to re adhere it when the replacement screen came in. Absolutely appreciate your detail! Thank you! This video worked for my hp 15dy1086nr screen.
I was about to get out my heat gun when I saw this. I did not need to remove the two screws above the panel. Grabbing the tape was not hard with a pair of forceps and pulling slowly worked great. My computer is now in great shape. Thanks very much.
THANK YOU! If I hadn't found your video I never would have tried this myself. So happy that I did not have to replace my entire laptop, especially when it was less than a year old!
Thank you for making this video! I might attempt a screen replacement for the first time and I didn't know that the screens were held in with tape similar to those in cell phone batteries. I was actually thinking about using a heat gun on the adhesive but I'm glad to know that I shouldn't. If my client ends up approving the repair then I will reference this video multiple times. While I do not have the same model, I hope that it will be similar enough. A service manual does exist but all it does is say "remove the LCD" instead of explaining HOW to remove the LCD.
Thank you, Tim. I watched this video and still thought I was nuts for trying, but with the video at my side, I was able to replace my touch screen. My laptop appears to be slightly newer and I had adhesive around all four sides of my bezel and the curved piece at the bottom of the screen is attached to my bezel, and not a separate piece. But the principles still applied. The plastic shins are critical! Thanks again.
Just wanted to thank you for making the video, and adding the parts links as well. My daughter's 15 series laptop needed the screen replaced and after watching the video the repair went nice and smooth! Take care :-)
Thank you so much for sharing this video. I have had my laptop and the replacement screen sitting next to my desk for the past month, but thanks in huge part to your video I was able to make this fix in an hour's time with no experience whatsoever.
My screen was similar but these instructions worked great. I'm typing this on my repaired computer. This clip was great because you showed some the pitfalls and potential issues. You've got a new fan
They had planned obsolescence Now there so greedy they are making stuff impossible to fix!!! I do my own repairs on everything I find most stuff is designed to be replaced not repaired On PURPOSE!!! we buy everything over seas or south of the border It's cheaper than repairs hear that's why when you send something back to the company or do a insurance claim they just send you another one Something you pay $200 for in the USA costs less than $20 in china or Mexico My DAD'S motto was if you can't eat it f**k or fix it you don't need it I agree!!! I'm actually learning computer's and plan on building my own computer that's fully serviceable running on Lennox I'm going to make using a brief case everything will be modular and replaceable I'm done paying $2000 for a computer that I can't fix and is obsolete before it's payed for it's self I think we would be better off leasing computer's and training them in every year
hi Tim, did I miss your instructions on the battery? I was wondering if you did open the notebook to plug out the battery… a lot of guys say it should be done … thanks for your opinion, regards
Thank you for posting! That tip on slowly removing the black tape from behind the screen was spot on! I'm sure my instinct would have been to pry the screen out. Thanks!
Such a great video. Super detailed. I just used this video to change the screen in the laptop that I use for editing my UA-cam videos. It made the job easy and simple. 5 out of 5 would use his tutorials again. Subbed.
is it still necessary to unplug the battery [even if internal] to switch out screens? I remember that used to be the procedure to avoid burning out the backlight chip in the motherboard back a few years. I imagine the most time consuming but proper procedure for this screen is to remove the screen assembly then slide out the hinge cover? just wondering.
Thanks so much! I have a laptop just like the one you used in the video (besides the touchscreen) and I broke the screen. Thanks to your clear instructions, I was able to repair it without spending $200!
Super helpful! I used this procedure for a HP 14-DQ1055CL Laptop. There were some minor differences but on the whole the instructions were spot on. Differences I noticed were that the bezel was taped at the bottom in different way and that the strips of tape that held the screen in were only accessible at the bottom of the screen. I removed the screws at the upper corners of the screen but don't think I needed to. Thanks!
I got this exact same laptop and broke my screen at the weekend. I followed the video and got the screen off OK, pulling the tapes out very carefully. Ordered a new screen from the number on the back of it. The new screen should be here by next weekend, also ordered a roll of double sided tape. This cost me in total about £70 (i am in the UK) that's about $95. The repair would be about £200 -£250 maybe. Great stuff thanks for the info.
Thank you Tim, had a tough time with this exact model today, found your video while trying to figure it out. Really appreciate your time and effort. My 2 cents, bring back the bigger heavier screens it's a bugger to work on these lol.
Just one thing . You took out two screws on the top right and left of the top of the laptop at the 4:00 mark . Then later , at the 9:42 mark , the screws are still removed . Then at the 14:04 mark , the screws ARE back in the top of the laptop . Maybe I missed it , but when did you reinstall the two screws on the top left and right of the laptop ?? Other than that it was just as you showed . Thanks again .
My only suggestion is to "top justify" the new display when mounting it. I let it sit too far down and I wasn't able to install the bezel. I was able to salvage the sticky rubber bands and re-use them. Great video. There's a trick to every task. Thanks for showing us this one!
Tim, thank you for this video. I wonder if you can tell me how to disconnect the HD touch connector . It seems there is a non touch display hooked up to a HD touch connector and it does not want to disconnect🧅
The only video I got on UA-cam which will help me. I have a question. I'm actually searching for how to remove that clutch cover or hinge cover... Will you please show me how to remove that cover without breaking it? I just want to calibrate my hp laptop hinges
Just a couple days ago I took off my laptop screen because my dog chewed the corner of it and damaged it so I had to order a new one, this video helped a lot.
Had a really hard time finding the tape as there was nothing sticking out. Once I was able to locate it behind the screen it was easy. Great video thank you so much !
Hey Tim, I followed the instructions up to the last step of removing the old screen. This is where you removed the tape at 10:10. My hp laptop has a bunch of small wires inside that tape, is there any tips you can give me for dealing with that?
Awesome video. Highly recommended. I've been keeping postponing to remove the lcd coz of that silly sticky gum. After watching the video it did not take me 20 minutes just because I don't want to cut the tape. Thank you much.
Helped me a bunch. On my model the tape was behind the two screws at the top. Had to bend the brackets back a bit to tweezer and pull the tape out. Thank you
Thank you sir! U just save me some money! My local PCgeek repair going to charge me 200 bucks for replacing my laptop screen. I can DIY it myself base on ur instructions
Thanks to your tutorial, I didn't have to experiment with this HP screen replacement! One thing I noticed: Those screws up top does not need to be removed because the screen is secured by the adhesive correct?
Thanks so much my new HP had a screen that was installed slightly crooked from the factory and it drive me nuts so I just carefully remounted it straight after watching how and it came out perfect!
I admit I followed you thru the procedure and as I did not see you put the screws back in , I "forgot" mine . Had to remove the Bezel again to reinstall them . My bad . Thank you
Hey that was very useful, I need a small help, after fixing the display I also changed the display Bessel, and now I'm finding difficulties in routing the WiFi antenna to the WiFi module, for when I do it and fold the laptop the antenna cable gets crushed, so can you help me Thanks
Thank you very much sir! Really helped a lot in replacing a cracked screen on a HP 15-dy1038nr 15.6" Laptop. Got the replacement LCD on eBay for about $120. The whole process went very smoothly and is like brand new again! Definitely buy the double-sided tape he has listed in the description.
The tape snapped on mine on one side. Decided to heat the rear of the screen for a few minutes before continuing as I'm in a cold climate. This seemed to help. Also found it easier to remove the clutch panel (the silver plastic bit) so it was easier to position the black frame first and ensure the WiFi cable stayed put.
Hey there, so I followed everything to the T however you didn't put the screws back in . Did we need to ? And I didn't use tape when I put it back, is that a problem and absolutely necessary?
Loved the video Tim. My screen has been flickering and Im wondering if its the actual screen or the ribbon flex cable. Is there a way to find that out? The screen seems fine when it's not flickering but when it does, it goes bright and sometimes white (picture is good but colour/brightness/saturation changes). Cheers for any help given or not. Appreciate your amazing run through of the replacement.
@@TimsComputerRepair yes the display. Flickering white lines and now has vertical lines and a bright "rising sun shape" at bottom middle of screen. I could email you a picture or video. If that would help.
Hi Tim, Thanks for the video. Very helpful. Is this same screen ( from amazon) applicable for newer HP model 15-dw3045cl. Any input will be appreciate.
Is there a way to make a new HP 17 screen easier to open and close? Some sort of lube or a way to loosen the hinges? Mine is so stiff I am pretty sure the hinge is going to break in no time. I am trying not to close it. I leave it in the open position on my desk after I'm finished working on it.
Good job 👍🏻 I have just disassembled my broken screen and some of my friends said that I should remove battery while connecting the new one. Is there need to remove battery or not ? Thank you in advance.
thank you for the video. Can you provide also a link for the replacement parts? I have to replace the display bezel, the display hinges and the display cover
Perfect video! I am not a tech person but I am good at following directions so I purchased my screen repair kit from screenarama from Amazon and I was able to remove my cracked screen and replace my new screen on this first try. Thank you! PS I managed to break the bezel but it still works so it’s just cosmetic lol.
Hi, thanks for the video very helpful! I am facing the same replacement but i want to upgrade to a 1080p panel. Is there any chance you can tell what 1080p panel would be compatible? I looked online a bunch and didnt find much info. I can see its thin bezel type panel but i guess the EXACT size would be key. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks
Thank you so much for making this video - the black tape would have thrown me for a loop without your prior advice. I got both tape strips loose without either breaking thankfully - screen did come with one bad pixel but customer bought the part so I'll let him ask the vendor about that before I button it all back together - on far right side so should be no issue anyway - I'm thinking to use a few small dabs of RTV silicone in place of the black tape. Will stick but be a little more forgiving than the tape. Have you tried that before?
So great Tim. Changed my first HP Laptop screen for my son to go to college. I am disabled and recovering from an awful traumatic brain injury. I didn't have the money to have an old laptop fixed. Your video empowered me to go ahead and try. Thank you. Now I can help others believe in themselves for computer repairs like this. Amazing!

They had planned obsolescence
Now there so greedy they are making stuff impossible to fix!!!
I do my own repairs on everything I find most stuff is designed to be replaced not repaired On PURPOSE!!!
we buy everything over seas or south of the border
It's cheaper than repairs hear that's why when you send something back to the company or do a insurance claim they just send you another one
Something you pay $200 for in the USA costs less than $20 in china or Mexico
My DAD'S motto was if you can't eat it f**k or fix it you don't need it I agree!!!
I'm actually learning computer's and plan on building my own computer that's fully serviceable running on Lennox
I'm going to make using a brief case everything will be modular and replaceable
I'm done paying $2000 for a computer that I can't fix and is obsolete before it's payed for it's self
I think we would be better off leasing computer's and training them in every year
Thanks a lot. Saved me $175. and I had fun learning how to do something new! I really appreciate it!

@@TimsComputerRepair Got the new screen today, typing this reply on my newly repaired laptop!! Yes!
Thank you Tim, had a tough time with this exact model today, found your video while trying to figure it out. Really appreciate your time and effort. My 2 cents, bring back the bigger heavier screens it's a bugger to work on these lol.
Just one thing . You took out two screws on the top right and left of the top of the laptop at the 4:00 mark . Then later , at the 9:42 mark , the screws are still removed . Then at the 14:04 mark , the screws ARE back in the top of the laptop . Maybe I missed it , but when did you reinstall the two screws on the top left and right of the laptop ?? Other than that it was just as you showed . Thanks again .
Probably just simply edited that part out. Thanks for commenting.
Finding this video saved my day when I was about to give up. Thanks a lot!
Glad I could help!
My only suggestion is to "top justify" the new display when mounting it. I let it sit too far down and I wasn't able to install the bezel. I was able to salvage the sticky rubber bands and re-use them. Great video. There's a trick to every task. Thanks for showing us this one!
Thanks for watching and commenting.
Thank you for the detail. I followed your steps and swapped out the screen on an HP 15T laptop with no issues
Glad the video helped. Thanks for commenting.
Good job Tim i can see it requires quite a bit of patience too. these screens aren't cheap. hP wants almost as much as the lap top costs for them.
Tim, thank you for this video. I wonder if you can tell me how to disconnect the HD touch connector . It seems there is a non touch display hooked up to a HD touch connector and it does not want to disconnect🧅
Felt like crackin' a safe. Satisfied and relieved. Nothing broke. Couldn't have done it without this content. Thank you.
Glad to help
Thank you TimsComputerRepair for showing me about that black glue screen tape and how to remove it. Saved me a lot of time and frustration.
Glad it helped.
The only video I got on UA-cam which will help me.
I have a question.
I'm actually searching for how to remove that clutch cover or hinge cover...
Will you please show me how to remove that cover without breaking it?
I just want to calibrate my hp laptop hinges
Just a couple days ago I took off my laptop screen because my dog chewed the corner of it and damaged it so I had to order a new one, this video helped a lot.
Glad the video helped.
If only I had found this yesterday, I wouldn’t have ripped off the housing bracket and dented up my case. Great video! Thanks.
Thanks for commenting.
FYI. If you can pull the elastic tape out without breaking it, and can keep it straight, you can reuse it for the replacement display.
OR you can buy replacement ones on Amazon for a few bucks. Just sayin'.
Had a really hard time finding the tape as there was nothing sticking out. Once I was able to locate it behind the screen it was easy. Great video thank you so much !
Glad I could help
Hey Tim,
I followed the instructions up to the last step of removing the old screen. This is where you removed the tape at 10:10. My hp laptop has a bunch of small wires inside that tape, is there any tips you can give me for dealing with that?
Awesome video. Highly recommended. I've been keeping postponing to remove the lcd coz of that silly sticky gum. After watching the video it did not take me 20 minutes just because I don't want to cut the tape. Thank you much.
Glad it helped
Helped me a bunch. On my model the tape was behind the two screws at the top. Had to bend the brackets back a bit to tweezer and pull the tape out. Thank you
Glad the video helped.
Thank you sir! U just save me some money! My local PCgeek repair going to charge me 200 bucks for replacing my laptop screen. I can DIY it myself base on ur instructions
Good luck. Thanks for commenting.
Had no idea about the tape on the back, luckily i found your video before I went too far, thanks for the work
Thanks so much! My son and I were able to replace a cracked screen with your help!
Glad I could help!
Thanks to your tutorial, I didn't have to experiment with this HP screen replacement! One thing I noticed: Those screws up top does not need to be removed because the screen is secured by the adhesive correct?
Correct. Thanks for commenitng.
Thanks so much my new HP had a screen that was installed slightly crooked from the factory and it drive me nuts so I just carefully remounted it straight after watching how and it came out perfect!
Glad the video helped.
From one tech to another, thanks so much for making this video. I was able to follow your removal step by step.
Glad it helped
Hello, amazing video! great instruction, do i have to unplug the battery from the computer before changing the screen?
No need
Thank you! You saved me 100's in getting my laptop repaired. Excellent instructional video
Glad it helped
thanks, just like you said, as a technician i was about to apply some heat to it. Didnt even notice the little tape sticking out! Thanks for that!
Glad it helped
Great vid! I ended up not taping the bottom of the trim to the screen, but everything went just like your video. Saved me a lot of money!!!
Thanks so much Tim!!! You are a Godsend!!! First time replacing a screen and your instruction made all the difference! God Bless You! ❤️🙏🏾❤️
Glad it helped
Can I get a screen with higher resolution for hp laptop 15s eq 1000? I only have hd but I want to get FHD
I admit I followed you thru the procedure and as I did not see you put the screws back in , I "forgot" mine . Had to remove the Bezel again to reinstall them . My bad . Thank you
Hp pavilion 15 eg 3026tu keyboard impressions on screen hogya.....
screen change krna hoga or kitna cost aiga ?
Do you not have to remove the battery first incase of damaging the main board ?
Hey that was very useful, I need a small help, after fixing the display I also changed the display Bessel, and now I'm finding difficulties in routing the WiFi antenna to the WiFi module, for when I do it and fold the laptop the antenna cable gets crushed, so can you help me
Thanks
Thank you very much sir! Really helped a lot in replacing a cracked screen on a HP 15-dy1038nr 15.6" Laptop. Got the replacement LCD on eBay for about $120. The whole process went very smoothly and is like brand new again! Definitely buy the double-sided tape he has listed in the description.
Glad the video helped. Thanks for commenting.
This has been so helpful, I have a newer model & was so confused on why it wasn’t budging. Thank you!
Glad it was helpful!
The tape snapped on mine on one side. Decided to heat the rear of the screen for a few minutes before continuing as I'm in a cold climate. This seemed to help. Also found it easier to remove the clutch panel (the silver plastic bit) so it was easier to position the black frame first and ensure the WiFi cable stayed put.
Thanks for commenting.
Thank you Tim! This is the first time i saw your videos, and really helped me to fix my computer! Thanks a lot again!
Great to hear!
The 3M tape you used for the screen sides is not listed ? The one listed looks different
Lost the screws when trying to remove the screen. I have the same exact laptop. Any suggestion where I could get new screws and what size they were.
So glad I watched this, you saved me a lot of headache and time lol
Great!
Hey there, so I followed everything to the T however you didn't put the screws back in . Did we need to ? And I didn't use tape when I put it back, is that a problem and absolutely necessary?
Where did you buy the screen replacement?
I just bought the same laptop right now. I am totally unsatisfied with the TN screen. Can you replace this laptop's screen with a full HD IPS panel?
Loved the video Tim.
My screen has been flickering and Im wondering if its the actual screen or the ribbon flex cable. Is there a way to find that out?
The screen seems fine when it's not flickering but when it does, it goes bright and sometimes white (picture is good but colour/brightness/saturation changes).
Cheers for any help given or not.
Appreciate your amazing run through of the replacement.
It is the display that is the problem.
@@TimsComputerRepair yes the display. Flickering white lines and now has vertical lines and a bright "rising sun shape" at bottom middle of screen. I could email you a picture or video. If that would help.
Hi Tim, Thanks for the video. Very helpful. Is this same screen ( from amazon) applicable for newer HP model 15-dw3045cl. Any input will be appreciate.
I have the 15-DY1031WM with a broken screen and was wondering if i could replace the non touch screen with the touch version ? Great video btw 👍🏾
I do not think that will work.
Is there a way to make a new HP 17 screen easier to open and close? Some sort of lube or a way to loosen the hinges? Mine is so stiff I am pretty sure the hinge is going to break in no time. I am trying not to close it. I leave it in the open position on my desk after I'm finished working on it.
Was the new screen an upgrade or was it the same specs? Looking to upgrade mine but not sure if a better screen will work
Good job 👍🏻 I have just disassembled my broken screen and some of my friends said that I should remove battery while connecting the new one. Is there need to remove battery or not ? Thank you in advance.
Nope. Never been a problem for me when replacing displays. Now if you have a digitizer involved then maybe.
thank you for the video. Can you provide also a link for the replacement parts? I have to replace the display bezel, the display hinges and the display cover
Perfect video! I am not a tech person but I am good at following directions so I purchased my screen repair kit from screenarama from Amazon and I was able to remove my cracked screen and replace my new screen on this first try. Thank you!
PS I managed to break the bezel but it still works so it’s just cosmetic lol.
Glad it helped
Sorry, I want to know if this model has backlit keyboard? Because it's working for one week ago but know it's now working again. Thx
Hi, thanks for the video very helpful! I am facing the same replacement but i want to upgrade to a 1080p panel. Is there any chance you can tell what 1080p panel would be compatible? I looked online a bunch and didnt find much info. I can see its thin bezel type panel but i guess the EXACT size would be key. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks
Hello! Great video! Is the connector 30 or 40 pins? Thanks in advance!
Thank you so much for making this video - the black tape would have thrown me for a loop without your prior advice. I got both tape strips loose without either breaking thankfully - screen did come with one bad pixel but customer bought the part so I'll let him ask the vendor about that before I button it all back together - on far right side so should be no issue anyway - I'm thinking to use a few small dabs of RTV silicone in place of the black tape. Will stick but be a little more forgiving than the tape. Have you tried that before?
I just cut small strips of the used black tape and place that near all 4 corners. That is well enough to support the screen.
@@TimsComputerRepair Makes sense. I wasn't sure if it had enough sticky left. I used 6 dabs of silicone calk.
