Remove the two Philips head screws on each hinge mount as shown. Make sure to apply enough downward pressure so as not to strip the screws. Guide the hinge mount out and towards you as shown. Page 28 of 44 Copyright © 2004 Powerbookmedic.com. All rights reserved.
Opening the Display On both sides of the display you will notice 2 Torx T6 Screws as shown in red. If you want to remove the entire back panel (not recommended) or get to the display cable, you’ll need to remove all 4. If you are performing just a hinge replacement, you only need to remove one from each side. (The ones on the bottom of the display where the hinges are located) If your hinges are broken, the next step will be much easier. If your hinges aren’t broken, then there is a high likelihood of breaking them when you try to open the display unless you take extra care. Grab the display as shown, and pull with a fair amount of force up. You are needing to break the epoxy bond holding the display together. Try to only grasp the display as close to the edge as possible. You do not want to put pressure anywhere near the actual LCD or you may break it. Page 29 of 44 Copyright © 2004 Powerbookmedic.com.
