How do I repair a broken hinge?

One of the monitor hinges is broken. I am unsure if it is a hinge pin or if the hinge has disconnected with the base. Do you have a repair guide and repair parts?

Answer this question I have this problem too

Is this a good question?

No guide for this as yet, here's the service manual, my be helpful: https://dl.dell.com/topicspdf/inspiron-1...

Have to work out what's broken - top cover/bezel, bottom case, etc

Depends on the design and the damage, I guess, but typically lugs break on bottom case/top case or top cover, so I'd start with removing back and checking for damaged lugs for the hinges on top-case or bottom case, then go to display assembly - page 41, to see if damaged lugs in top-cover, or wherever.
