Step 3
¶
-
The back panel must be removed in order to proceed. Slide the cover so that it is fully extended.
-
The arrows in the picture indicate two small holes located at the top of the device. Insert a paper clip or a tack simultaneously into each of these holes and moderately push downward.
-
The springs will give as pressure is exerted. Once you feel this take place, pull down the cover with the paper clip/tack while continuing to push downward. This will release the back cover.

Step 7
¶
-
To open the device, the sides must be (with moderate force) pried apart using a prying tool as seen in the picture.
-
Both sides must be separated from one another.
-
Tip: The right side may be slightly more difficult. It will be easiest to begin on the left.
-
Beginning with the left side, gently pry at the division of the face plates until they separate from one another.
-
Repeat this process on the other side of the device.
Edit
Step 9
¶
-
Remove the face plate and set aside. This will leave the core of the device in front of you.
-
Reminder: The core of the device will be connected by various cables. Gently lift the screen and mother board (as in picture).
-
As labeled in the picture, the orange screen cable will connect on the lower right side of the motherboard.
-
Disconnect the cable by pulling it upward from the motherboard connection. Depending on your device, it may require little to moderate force.
-
Carefully remove your screen.
Edit
Step 10
¶
-
Next, the new screen must be connected to the motherboard.
-
Connect the new orange cable into the same location as the previous screen. (Location noted in picture by arrow). Make sure the cable is placed facing downward on the connection.
-
Lower the motherboard into place. Make sure to keep the back facing downward. Hint: This will be the side where all cables are connected.
-
Gently lay the screen on the core of the device.
