1. To begin, place the LCD assembly face
down on a soft surface (ESD mat would be best)
so as not to scratch the screen. Remove (4x)
Phillips head screws:
2. Separate the two halves of the assembly by pulling
straight up after the screws have been removed. Set the
back half of this LCD assembly aside. Note that the center
connector is keyed and the halves can only be replaced in
one direction:
3. On the LCD panel housing, mark across the brackets
and the housing to make replacing later a breeze:
4. On each side (left and right) of the LCD
housing, remove (2x) Torx T8 screws, and
(2x) Phillips head screws:

5. Next, remove (2x)
Phillips head screws on
the top and bottom of the
LCD housing:
6. Caref lly separate the metal
bracket from the LCD housing,
this will expose the touch panel
ribbon cable and allow the LCD
screen to be separated from the
back half of the housing:
7. ow separate the metal
housing from the LCD
panel. Lifting the opposite
side of the touch panel
ribbon will give you easy
access to remove the
ribbon connectors:
8. isconnect the ribbons carefully with a small flat head
screwdriver from the circuit board side. Set the LCD panel
aside for now, it is not needed for this modification:
