Just looking for a teardown guide on replacing the screen. Or a teardown of similar model ASUS that would apply to this model. Thanks!
Very simple. I have the exact same model. A guitar pic or something can be run around the screen edges to pop the display away from the plastic housing. At the bottom, remove the plastic covering that hides the hinges and cables, and remove the screws that hold the screen in place. Then you can just undo the two connectors (one at the bottom and one around the side that snakes up to the top where the webcam is. Panel should now come out and be replaceable. Best of luck!
Go tho youtube and type in brand/model number and screen replacement. Ihave been tearing down and replacing laptop parts for years with the fantastic help and how to’s from youtube.
