So, are you having a challenge to detach
0:02
or to remove your laptop keyboard? In
0:04
this video, I'm going to show you the
0:05
correct way to remove a laptop keyboard
0:08
without breaking it or without breaking
0:10
other parts of your laptop. Basically,
0:12
there are two types of keyboards that
0:15
laptops comes with. One is
0:17
this. This is a keyboard that is
0:19
separated. It is attached to this part
0:22
on this section. For this, we shall just
0:24
remove this keyboard. However, other
0:26
types of laptops such as
0:27
this, if I go open it, you can
0:31
see now this one is a different one. The
0:34
keyboard has been embodied or infused in
0:37
this casing. So, for this one, you have
0:39
to remove everything from the back to be
0:42
able to get to this keyboard. However,
0:44
for this type, we can remove it from top
0:47
here. So, let's begin with this first
0:49
and then I'll show you how we can remove
0:51
this type of keyboard. So, you have to
0:54
identify which type of keyboard your
0:55
laptop has before you can begin to
0:57
remove. Now, to correctly do this, I'll
1:00
need two things. One is a
1:02
scapel just like this. Or if you have
1:06
the special removers, you can also use
1:08
them. But for this case, I'm just going
1:09
to use a scapel. They tend to work well.
1:12
So, my name is Isaac and this is a
1:14
minute with AI. Let's get into it. So
1:16
the first thing before you begin to
1:18
detach this keyboard, you have to go
1:20
ahead and unscrew all the screw that
1:22
might be attached to this keyboard from
1:24
behind around this area where the
1:27
keyboard is, especially in this area. So
1:29
I'll go ahead and unbolt all of them.
1:32
Now these are long screws that sometimes
1:34
go deep to the keyboard. So they screw
1:36
part of the keyboard and before you can
1:38
remove the keyboard, you have to unscrew
1:39
them. Make sure you remove all of them.
1:41
So I have removed mine and it's time to
1:44
detach the keyboard.
1:46
So you can't go ahead and start pulling
1:49
the keyboard. You might end up breaking
1:51
the keyboard because we have because we
1:54
have some clips that this keyboard is
1:56
attached to. So you have to go and check
1:58
for clips and make sure you uncip them.
2:01
So if I move this closer, I don't know
2:03
if you can see them. We have like the
2:06
first clip is
2:07
here. Another clip is here. And they are
2:11
spread throughout this upper part.
2:15
So using a scapel go ahead and uncip
2:20
them one after
2:24
another. And that has been
2:32
unclipped. Sometimes they tend to be
2:34
hard. So you have just to apply some
2:37
force using a scapel to uncip them.
2:43
And mostly when you uncip them, you'll
2:45
hear them make uncipping noise to know
2:49
they have
2:51
detached from the upper casing. And I
2:54
have just unclipped the upper part. Now
2:57
once you have uncipped the upper part,
2:58
go ahead and remove on the side.
3:00
Sometimes they also they are also
3:01
clipped on the side. Uncip them and
3:05
uncip on both sides. And now you can see
3:08
it has been
3:09
raised. Now, should you find any
3:12
resistance, it means there is a screw
3:14
that maybe you didn't unbolt or you
3:16
didn't unscrew. Go back and look behind
3:19
for any screw that you can identify. So,
3:23
now that the upper part is up, now we
3:26
have other clips on the lower part here.
3:30
So, the best way to pull out this
3:31
keyboard is to push it away from your
3:33
body like this. And look at that. Look
3:37
at that. They have now been unclipped.
3:40
So once you have unclipped, you have to
3:42
be careful because we have a flex cable
3:44
that is attached from your keyboard to
3:46
your motherboard. So I have mine here.
3:48
I'll go ahead
3:50
and and clip
3:54
it. And here is our keyboard. So you can
3:59
see those parts that I was telling you
4:01
where the hooks are normally attached.
4:05
These are the upper ones and these are
4:08
the lower ones. These are the hooks. So
4:10
you have to be careful while removing
4:12
them so that you don't break them and
4:14
also so that you don't end up breaking
4:16
your
4:17
keyboard. Now in the second case we're
4:20
going to see how we can remove the
4:22
keyboard for this laptop. And now as you
4:25
can
4:26
see this keyboard is beneath our top
4:29
casing. And the only way to remove such
4:31
kind of a
4:33
keyboard is to remove the bottom casing.
4:37
So for this you have just to go ahead
4:39
and unscrew everything from here. Remove
4:42
everything. Unscrew. I have already
4:44
unscrewed my my my laptop. Then go ahead
4:48
and open
4:49
it. And again for this you might need
4:52
these
4:59
openers. Just open it.
5:04
And make sure when you're doing this,
5:05
your battery is out. You have removed
5:07
your battery and all attachments. So go
5:11
and screw all the other screws. And then
5:14
I'll go
5:16
ahead and remove this casing.
5:31
So the first laptop was a Dell and this
5:33
is a HP laptop that you are removing the
5:35
keyboard. So once you remove this go
5:38
ahead and also remove your motherboard.
5:40
Your motherboard will be attached here.
5:42
It is simple just any screw that you see
5:44
go ahead and unscrew it. And as you can
5:47
see after you remove your motherboard.
5:49
Now you can see the keyboard is here. So
5:51
we remove it from this other side. So to
5:53
remove this,
5:56
identify all the screws that have
5:57
fastened that have fastened it. And as
6:00
you can see, we have a screw here. So
6:01
I'll go ahead and unscrew
6:21
it. And now this is
6:28
loose. Now also go ahead and unscrew on
6:31
the other end. You can see we have quite
6:33
a number of them. So once you unscrew
6:35
this now this keyboard will easily come
6:37
out. So that's how you can easily remove
6:40
your keyboard from your laptop. So I'll
6:42
not finish this because I'm not planning
6:44
to remove it at this moment. But that's
6:46
the procedure that you should just
6:48
follow. So if you have any other
