Replacing the LCD Assembly
To reattach the LCD assembly, follow these steps:
1. With the LCD cable flat, carefully wrap the end of the
LCD cable around the attached sleeve on the cable,
finishing with the end of the cable coming from behind
the sleeve.
2. To prevent possible damage, tape the end of the
cable to the bezel while you reattach the LCD
assembly.
3. Place the LCD assembly on the base in the closed
position. Make sure that the backlight and
microphone cables are
inside
the base unit.
4. Replace the four hinge screws (BG).
5. Open the computer lid all the way (180°) and remove
the tape from the the LCD cable.
6. Slide the ferrite core over the end of the LCD cable,
pushing the core onto the cable just far enough to
expose the two sets of silver contacts on the cable.
7. Connect the LCD cable to the connectors on the
bottom system board by inserting the flat ends of the
cable. Then, push in the small sliding latch under
each cable to secure the cable in the connector. Do
not bend or fold the LCD cable. Press on the loop of
cable around the sleeve to insert the cable ends into
the connectors.
8. Pull the ferrite core forward on the cable until the core
touches the connectors and it can be pressed down
flat on top of the bottom system board.
