Step 4
- The rear cover can now be easily removed. The LCD is sitting in a frame without fasteners. It will just lift up, however, there will be a piece of insulating material that is separating the back of the LCD from the logic board. Remove this after the removal of the LCD from the frame. Do not try to remove the LCD from the PCB yet.
- Open the ribbon cable connector by pulling the white clasp gently up.
- Remove the old LCD.
