Introduction
Use this guide to remove or replace the display on an Asus ROG G751JL.
What you need
-
-
Use an opening tool to pry up the small rubber cover on the upper right corner of the RAM access door.
-
-
-
Insert the wide edge of an opening pick into a new part of the seam between the door and the computer.
-
Pry the door up to release the clips closest to the pick.
-
Continue to slide the pick along the seam all the way around the door, prying as you go, until all the clips holding the door down have been released.
-
-
-
Remove the 5.2 mm Phillips #00 screw securing the optical drive.
-
-
-
Use the point of a spudger to pry out eleven rubber plugs covering the screws on the bottom of the laptop.
-
-
-
Remove 18 Phillips #00 screws of the following lengths:
-
Eight 8.8 mm screws
-
Seven 5.2 mm screws
-
Three screws
Step 9: on my model the 2 lower left most red 8.8 mm screws appear to be 5.2 mm orange screws.
-
-
-
-
Flip the laptop right-side up.
-
Use an opening pick to pry the left and right edges of the battery cover away from the laptop enough that you can grip the cover with your fingers.
-
-
-
Pull the speaker connectors straight away from each other to disconnect the speaker cable.
-
-
-
Open the laptop's display to a 90° angle.
-
Use a spudger to pry against one of the screw tabs on the back of the upper case assembly.
-
Repeat this procedure with the other tab.
-
-
-
Use the tip of a spudger to flip up the small locking flap of the keyboard backlight cable ZIF connector.
-
Gently pull the cable out of its socket.
-
-
-
Repeat the previous step for the keyboard, trackpad buttons, and trackpad cables held in place by ZIF connectors.
Gently pry up onwards each of the white plastic connector just above the ribbon cable (or near the gray rib on the wider ribbon cable).
-
-
-
Pull the battery cable away from the connector in the same direction as the individual wires are running to disconnect the battery.
-
-
-
Grab the black tape attached to the display cable and pull straight up to disconnect the display cable.
Before trying to remove the display connector, gently lift tape holding speaker cable and temporarily push cable aside to allow more access to the tape holding the display cable. Then proceed to lift the display cable.
-
-
-
Lift the monitor straight up and remove it.
Please add the step to unplug both wifi antenna cables and the display connector before removing the monitor. Both just pop up.
Hi this comment is correct. This guide completely skips the important step of removing and replacing the wifi cables. Without this step the computer is unable to retain its wifi functions

How to replace the lcd?
I have to agree with Sam Torres on this. I reached the same spot where the screen was off, but then which wire goes to which connector. The picture is too fuzzy to be completely clear. It looks like the one further to the back (lcd screen) might be the white one and the one closer to the front of the laptop (touchpad) might be teh black one but the only way to tell is to assemble everything and then get the bad or good news.

You have left out TWO very important steps. A) tools needed: a - fine tweezer and b - magnifier glass [ and a lot of patience }.
With the open computer facing you. On the left side two gold electrode wires connect to the motherboard, note the wire placement of the two.
On the right side there is a ribbon connector on the right side. NOTE, when the monitor is lifted out, these will COME OFF. If you are a notice, you will be lost. My guess the new monitor will have these connector. To rebuild: place the set screws for the monitor and then the left and right rear brackets. Go back to front view and insert the back ribbon connector to the motherboard on the right backside. Take a break. Use the magnifier glass and tweezer and attempt to align the SMALL ELECTRODE heads. When aligned they can be pressed on, a light snap will be heard. Please be carefull. This step took me 1 hour. After these steps, continue re-assembly.

Would the display connector be the same for the touchscreen model? Or is there an additional cable/different connector?
