## Overview

Yes, we replace laptop screens, and the first job is finding out which part has actually failed, because not every dark or striped laptop screen is a broken panel. Visible cracks, black blotches that spread like ink, or lines that appeared after a drop point to the LCD panel itself. A picture that flickers or cuts out when you move the lid usually points to the display cable that runs through the hinge. An image you can only just make out when you shine a flashlight at the screen means the backlight has failed.

Plugging in an external monitor tells us whether the computer is producing a picture at all. If the external display works, the fault is in the lid; if it doesn't, the problem is on the board and a new panel won't help. We tell you which repair it needs and what it costs before you commit, and if the panel for your model has to be ordered, we tell you that before we start.

## Cracked panel, failed cable or dead backlight? How to tell on your laptop

A few quick checks narrow it down. Slowly open and close the lid while watching the screen: if the image flickers, changes color or drops out at a particular angle, the display cable or its connector is the likely cause. Press very gently near the edge of a bad area: if the lines or colors change under light pressure, the panel itself is damaged.

A screen that is fine for the first few minutes and then goes dark, or one that shows the image only faintly, points to the backlight or its power circuit. Vertical or horizontal lines that are present from the moment the computer starts, even in the startup logo, are usually the panel. Note what you see before you come in; a photo of the fault on your phone helps too.

## Separate panel or bonded display assembly: how laptops are built

On many laptops the panel is a separate part held in the lid by a bezel and a few screws, and replacing it means matching the exact panel by connector, resolution, refresh rate and whether it is a touchscreen. Two panels can look identical and still have a different connector or a different number of pins, so we identify the part from the panel itself rather than from the laptop's model name alone.

On thinner laptops and most MacBooks, the glass and panel come as one bonded display assembly, which is more involved and costs more. Touchscreen laptops and two-in-ones that fold back into a tablet usually fall into that group as well, because the touch layer is laminated to the panel.

## Why we check the hinges before fitting a new screen

A hinge that has broken loose from its mounts may be what cracked the screen, and fitting a new panel to a lid with a failed hinge only repeats the damage. Signs to look for are a lid that feels stiff or crunchy to open, a gap opening up between the lid and its frame, or a corner of the bezel lifting away near a hinge.

Where the hinge mounts in the lid or base have broken, they are repaired as part of the job so the new screen isn't put under the same stress. We include that in the quote rather than finding it halfway through.

## Repair, external monitor or replace the laptop?

For most laptops a new panel is far cheaper than a new computer and gives you back a portable machine. The sums change with high-resolution, touch or high-refresh gaming displays, which cost more, and with bonded assemblies on premium thin laptops, where the display can be one of the most expensive parts in the machine.

If the laptop is old, rarely leaves the desk and the rest of it works, an inexpensive external monitor is a reasonable alternative, and we'll tell you so. If the computer was dropped hard enough to crack the screen, we also check that it charges, boots and runs normally before you commit to the repair.

## Before you bring the laptop in

Bring the laptop and its charger to the store in Tucson Mall, and back up your files if the computer still starts on an external monitor. A screen repair doesn't involve the drive, so nothing is wiped, but a backup costs nothing. Close the lid gently and avoid pressing on the cracked area; a crack in the glass can spread and damage the panel's edge or the bezel further. Your password lets us check the new screen under Windows or macOS once it is fitted.
