Introduction
How to replace a faulty motherboard in your Acer Aspire V5-473P-5602 notebook.
Keep yourself grounded to avoid shocking your components by using an anti-static mat. If you don't have one, simply go barefoot while standing on a hard surface floor while working on your motherboard. Socks cause static. Don't forget to disconnect the power!
Taking photos after you complete each step will help you keep up with where the components should be while you're working.
