Title: Step-by-Step Guide to Lenovo Legion 5 Laptop Screen Replacement
Introduction: Hello everyone, Simon here! Today, we’re tackling a screen replacement for the Lenovo Legion 5 Laptop (Model: 15IMH05H). If you’ve experienced a heavy impact that shattered your screen, you’re in the right place. Let’s jump into the step-by-step process of replacing the damaged screen.
The Replacement Process:
- Preparing the Laptop: Begin by turning off the laptop. It’s crucial to ensure the device is completely powered down before attempting any repairs.
- Identifying the Model: Confirm you’re working on the correct model (Lenovo Legion 5, 15IMH05H). This step is vital for ensuring compatibility with replacement parts.
- Opening the Bezel: The bezel, which is held in place with double-sided adhesive tape, needs to be carefully opened. Be gentle to avoid damage to the bezel, as it is quite fragile. Since the screen is already damaged, don’t worry about scratching it, but be cautious around the webcam and microphones.
- Removing the Damaged Screen: Once the bezel is off, you’ll find tabs at the bottom right and left corners of the screen. These tabs have short strips of double-sided tape that you need to pull gently. After pulling these tabs, flip the screen towards you and disconnect it by sliding the cable away from you. This cable also has a small metal clip that should be opened first.
- Screen Model and Replacement: Check the model number of the screen (for example, NV1FHM-NX1, Version 8.0) and purchase the exact replacement. Avoid opting for a screen with a different specification or refresh rate, as compatibility issues may arise.
- Installing the New Screen: Assuming you have the new screen, connect it by sliding the cable in and securing the metal clip. If the old adhesive isn’t sticky anymore, apply new double-sided tape (5mm width recommended) to the back of the screen.
- Reattaching the Bezel: If the bezel’s adhesive has lost its stickiness, use a 2mm double-sided tape to reattach it. Carefully align and press the bezel back into place, ensuring a snug fit.
Conclusion: Replacing the screen of your Lenovo Legion 5 is a straightforward process that can save you a trip to the repair shop. Just take your time, handle parts gently, and ensure you use the correct replacement screen.
