Author: Simon
Introduction: Hello, Simon here, and I hope you’re doing well. Today, I’m taking apart an ASUS gaming laptop, model GL703V, to salvage usable parts for resale on eBay. This teardown will be beneficial for those seeking to replace specific parts like the keyboard or LCD screen. If you need parts and stumble upon this video, feel free to visit my eBay store.
Teardown Process:
- Initial Steps: Begin by removing one screw and prying open the back cover. You’ll immediately notice the RAM, M.2 NVMe SSD drive, and a secondary slot for a 2.5-inch hard drive.
- Battery Removal: The battery, evident by its positioning and connectors, should be the first component to be removed. Disconnect it gently and lift it out. For replacements, refer to model B41N1711.
- Wi-Fi and Other Components: Proceed to disconnect the Wi-Fi cables, the DC jack connector, and the LCD connector. The Wi-Fi card can also be removed and possibly reused.
- CPU Fan and Heatsink: Unscrew and remove the CPU fan and heatsink. Be cautious as the heatsink might be firmly attached due to dried thermal paste.
- Motherboard Removal: Continue by unscrewing the motherboard. Pay attention to the arrows indicating screw locations. Disconnect all flex cables, including those for the keyboard, trackpad, and power button, before lifting the motherboard out.
- Keyboard and Screen Removal: With the motherboard out, slide out the full keyboard assembly. Note that individual keys cannot be replaced – the whole keyboard assembly must be swapped. For the screen, you can either replace the LCD alone or opt for a full assembly replacement.
Conclusion: In this teardown, we’ve successfully disassembled an ASUS GL703V gaming laptop. Key components like the keyboard assembly and the LCD screen can be salvaged for resale. Remember, when dealing with hinges, if they’re stiff, use a wrench to carefully loosen them without exerting excessive pressure.
