How to Repair a Laptop Screen

One of the most common hardware problems that people who own a laptop experience is a broken or malfunctioning laptop screen. Laptop screens are essential to laptop use. Laptop screens can be incredibly delicate. However, they are surprisingly very easy to fix  even if the fixer is not a technical person.

Troubleshoot the Laptop Screen Problem

Before replacing a laptop screen, it is wise to troubleshoot the problem. While obvious damage to a screen usually requires full replacement, other types of damage that are visible on the laptop screen may not be due to the screen itself.

Repair a Laptop Screen

Pixel Problems

Pixels often get damaged, making the laptop screen very difficult to read and use. Laptops use LCD (liquid crystal display) to show images, which are made from thousands of pixels (little dots). If a few pixels in one area are damaged, this can ruin the entire computing experience. In most cases, it is best to remove the entire laptop screen and replace it with a new one.

Laptop Screens with Faint Images

Laptop screens are back lit to improve screen visibility. However, sometimes the back light does not work, making the screen extremely difficult to read. The problem might be as simple as one of the latches being stuck in the closed position. For instance, if the laptop is opened and the switch is stuck in the closed position, the computer is usually on, but the back light remains off. First, find the back light switch. These switches are usually very tiny and located near the laptop hinges. Try to open and close the laptop a few times, if this does not work, a gentle tap or using a small pin to try to gently un-stick the latch usually does the trick.

The Laptop Screen Flickers or is a Solid White Color

If the laptop screen flickers on and off, the cause is probably an inverter problem. The inverter supplies power to the screen’s back light. Inverters are easy to replace and usually cost about $100. If the laptop screen is a solid white color, then the problem is possibly a bad cable connection between the monitor and the system board. Open up the laptop and make sure that the cables and connections are set correctly and undamaged.

Jumbled Screen Images

Laptop users often see jumbled images on their screen. In most cases, this is not due to the screen itself, but possibly the video card. One quick way to determine what is causing the screen to be jumbled is to connect a monitor to the laptop with a VGA port. If the other monitor shows jumbled images, then the problem is probably the laptop’s video card.

Replacing a Laptop Screen

If the image problem is due to a broken or malfunctioning laptop screen, replacing it is fairly easy. It should be noted that laptop screens are extremely expensive and can sometimes cost 50% or more of the total price of the computer, for instance more than $500 for a $1,000 computer. While a new screen can be purchased from the manufacturer, most people either decide to purchase a used laptop screen or buy a new laptop. Those who decide to replace their computer screen only need a screwdriver. Here are some easy steps to follow:

  • Step 1. Note the laptop screen type and purchase one that is guaranteed to fit. While some laptop models from the same manufacture may fit, ensure that it does before purchasing it. When ready to replace the screen, shut down the laptop, remove the battery, and unplug the laptop.
  • Step 2. Locate the screw covers on the plastic frame (usually rubber or plastic) to gain access to the screws that hold the screen to the bezel in place. In most cases, the screen has from 4 to 6 total screw covers. The user will probably need a small flat head or Phillips screw driver. However, some laptops might have their own screw heads that require special screw drivers or Allen wrenches to remove the screws. Screw covers are usually located at the bottom of the plastic frame. However, every computer model is different, so search for the screw covers to gain access to the screen.
  • Step 3. Once the screw covers are removed, remove all the screws while holding the screen in place. Once all the screws are removed, gently pull away the screen from the plastic bezel. The best way to accomplish this is to use one’s fingers to gently roll around the entire bezel, thereby loosening the screen. Once the screen is slightly separated, pull it away from the bezel with a light to moderate amount of force. If the screen does not budge, check whether any screws are still attached.
  • Step 4. When the bezel has been removed, the screen with a metal frame  surrounding it will be visible. Tilt the screen forward, exposing the LCD frame’s metal back. The screen should gently pop out of its back shell. The wires running from the screen to the laptop will be visible. There should be two main wires. The first is a ribbon, which is the video cable. The video cable is usually taped in place. Remove the tape and gently disconnect the ribbon from the LCD screen. The other wire is the inverter’s power cable. In order to only replace the LCD screen, continue to use the inverter, leaving it as is. However, in order to replace the inverter as well, disconnect the power cable and unscrew the inverter from its mount.
  • Step 5. Once the old screen is removed, plug in the new screen and set it in the shell. However, before screwing in the bezels, test the screen to make sure it is working properly. In order to test the screen, power up the laptop. If the screen is working properly when powered up, shut down the computer and continue to screw the screen to the bezel and cover the screws with the plastic or rubber caps.

Screen replacement is complete. The computer should work like new. Replacing the laptop screen without a technician is a great way to save money, not only on the cost of the laptop screen, but the cost of labor as well.

    Thanks so much for your information. My laptop opened this morning with a white screen. I looked at other websites and all said it was an internal problem or it was malware or software problems. I read your comment about the back light switch on the hinge and I closed the top lid and reopened and my screen appeared! My problem was that I had closed the top and when I opened it this morning the switch was stuck. You saved me a lot of money for repair shops and time lost from work. Thank you for the simple solution! :lol:

      Same happened to mine.
      The liquid crystal in the screen has burst. Mine at first still showed half of the screen, eventually it leaked across whole screen…now I just have a white screen with black blobswhere the burst/leak started.
      Mine happened when closing without paying attention & feeling it not closing right I reallly squeezed it to get it to shut & realised the lead was stopping it, the pressure of me pushing it caused the lead to burts the LCD screen.

      I now have to buy a new screen & replace

        same thing happened 2 me, I closed the lid with an object sitting on the keyboard. My screen is all white with a big paint brush mark on it & lines all through it. Did u just replace the screen it’self or did something else need replacing to fix it? I took mine to the computer shop & it’s going 2 cost more 2 relace the screen than what I paid for my computer but i can find the screen heaps cheaper on the net but not sure if just replacing the screen will fix my problem???

    If nothing is showing up on neither the laptop screen nor on other screens when you connect to them then maybe the laptop isn’t even starting up properly. Do any indicator lights show up? Do you hear anything (fans, beeps, etc.)?

    Have you turned it on while connected to main power?

    You could try resetting the bios.

    A good idea might be to take it to the repairman to check it out.

    In any case it doesn’t appear to be a screen issue (if nothing shows on other screens either).

    My HP Pavillion dv2910 laptop screen stopped working. It is not like the typical “black screen” hardware issue that many have. All the blue function lights turn on, but nothing ever shows up on the screen, as if it is “off”. Is this a simple fix as well, or do I need to replace it?

    If it looks fine on another monitor, but not on the laptop screen then the screen probably needs to be replaced. Instructions for that are in the article. Like the article says you could try to find a used one so it is cheaper, but if it’s too expensive you might consider getting a new laptop, and using the existing one with an external monitor in the mean time.

    Try connecting it to another computer if you have one just to see if it’s the monitor issue or the computer issue.

    If it’s the monitor try to find the reset button on it which might fix it, or play with the settings. If it’s the computer check that you have the latest graphics card drivers, and screen resolution. Is it an LCD monitor?

    Once your old screen has been removed, plug in the new screen and set it in the shell. However, before you screw in the bezels, you should test the screen to make sure 8 inch LCD monitor
    it is working properly. In order to test the screen, you will need to power up your computer. If when you power up your computer, the screen is working properly, you can shut down the computer and continue to screw in the screen 8 inch LCD

    Try connecting it to an external monitor just to see if it’s the screen or something else.

    If it’s the screen it’s still possible that the connections in the folding part between the screen and the base of the laptop got broken or weakened with use. Otherwise it might be the screen itself that’s the problem in which case a replacement might be in order. In case your laptop still has a warranty just send it in for repair. Otherwise you could find someone to take a look at it and advise a way to repair it, or pay a repairman, or buy a new laptop (especially if it’s an old one).

    I was wondering if anyone could help me. I have a Compaq Presario CQ 60 laptop. When I open it up the screen starts flicking. Normally I can get the screen in a position that it will not flicker, but if I bump the table it is sitting on the screen will flicker or I will have to readjust it. Other than that, the laptop has no problems and performs great. I have tried hooking it up to a regular monitor and it works fine no flickering. Does anyone know if it is the Inverter, LCD or the cord that connects the display to the rest of the laptop or what do you think it could be? I would love to try to fix it so that my daughter can use it.

    I’m no expert, but it sounds like it’s the cord. This is probably why it works if you position the screen just right and it flickers if you bump the table. When connections are bad they’re sensitive like that.

    What kind of a flicker is it though? Is the whole screen getting dimmed (which might point to an inverter) or do you just get black lines across the screen (connections issue)?

    Whichever it is, it might be replaceable. This guide, which shows how to replace an LCD screen, could be helpful for opening it up, finding the cord or inverter and replacing it. You might find a new one on ebay, but make sure it fits your exact model.

    Most probably the flex connection was not put back in the right place. If you are not able to figure out, then send your laptop to some specialist. There are a lot of laptop repair : http://www.drlaptop.com places around.

    This might not be a screen problem. Try removing the battery and pressing the start button for 30 seconds or so, and then install the battery back on and see if it works. It seems that worked for a lot of people.

    Well if the screen is cracked the blue and black thing is most likely caused by that. You need a new screen either way. Even if the cause of the anomaly is elsewhere so I’d suggest just going and buying it, and if you still have a problem then it’s something with the connections, but I doubt it.

    Ok Guys Reset Reset Reset Your BIOS. Dont ask me how to do this because all of you have different computers just do a google search. once you have effectivly reset your bios (note: Always a good idea to pull ram before reseting) Power On And Keep Pressing F8 If You Still Have No Screen Press DOWN on your navigation keeys and press enter. This will boot safe mode witch will load factory or (OEM) Display drivers to eliminate a problem with a corrupted DLL or somthing If You Still Get No Picture HARDWARE HARDWARE HARDWARE and if its a laptop take it in because unlike a desktop you cant just throw an agp card in when the integrated graphics take a pooh:oops: . this should even fix the guy with the lines in his screen seen this before and BIOS reset alone Fixes it

    Looks like it might be a problem with the cord that connects your screen to your laptop’s motherboard. You can either try opening the laptop yourself and checking this or sending it to a specialist to look into it (which would be recommended).

    Hi
    My laptop is working ok when the screen is wide open or when its in vertical position, but when I move it to 40 degree position the colors become green .
    Is it normal, or somthing loose ?
    your help will be apreciated.

    @yassin

    Are you moving whole laptop? Or just screen? If you are moving just screen to keyboard then stop. Open the screen and move your eyesight 40% vertical if it gets green then you have older LCD. If it is ok then something is really wrong since it should not become green when you are going to close monitor.

      I am having the exact same problem with an HP Pavilion dv4. When open the display hinge (not the computer) the screen turns green. Its gotten worse recently. Now i have to have the screen at a little less than a 45 degree angle to view it. Its obviously something in the hinge but i have never opened a laptop before.

        (also @ yassin) It is highly likely that your laptop’s LCD cable is worn or damaged. This is the cable that supplies the picture signal to the LCD from the mainboard. When you change the angle of the screen, the cable flexes and if damaged will short out and lose some or all of the picture signal.

        The problem will only get worse with continued use – the cable needs to be replaced.

      Jessica,

      try unplugging it and taking the battery out. then replace battery and plug it back in. that should reset the monitor and let it come on unless it has gone bad all at once. i had a desktop one do that once. was working fine, turned it off, came back 2-3 hours later and nothing…

      Does the entire screen change color, or only parts of the screen? If only parts, are those parts squares or circles?

      Has your laptop screen been subject to pressure recently, such as if it was hit by something?

      Do the symptoms change if you push or pull the screen to open it wider or close it more? Do the symptoms change if you gently twist the screen just a little bit?

      What is the make and model of your laptop?

        YES THE ENTIRE SCREEN CHANGES COLOR.
        REALISED THAT IT DOES NOT COVER (CLOSE) TIGHTLY AS IT USED TO BE AFTER USE.
        THE SYMPTOMS DOES NOT CHANGE.
        THE LAPTOP IS HP COMPAQ-CQ60-215DX

    Hi there.
    The lower third of my laptop screen flickers alot, or will freeze for 10 seconds before updating, or otherwise just turns blank. If I apply pressure (like squeezing between my fingers) to the left hand frame it works but obviously this makes typing very difficult. I plan to buy a new laptop soon, and was wondering if in the meantime there was a way to adjust the display settings so that only the top 2/3rd or half of my screen will display the whole image, kind of like ultra widescreen. I think its probably a loose connection or something but I’m afraid I’ll break the whole thing if I open it up and attempt to fix it myself!
    I appreciate any help, thank you!

      I can’t think of a way to make the image display only in the upper part of the screen.  I would test different resolutions to see if the issue was better at another resolution.  Depending upon the age (i.e. value) of your notebook, you also might take it to a notebook repair specialist to have the monitor connections adjusted.

      german:

      You shouldn’t need to install any software to support a simple external monitor.  However, most notebooks use key combinations to toggle the signal to the external monitor on and off.  For example, on my Lenovo the key combination <FUNCTION-F7> does this.

      What is the make and model of your notebook PC?

    Now, the screen has gone blank (light grey – lit up) permanently.
    I have tried connecting to the HD TV using both HDMI and VGA but no luck.
    Could it be screen, inverter, cable or ribbon???

    My screen flickers white; we have this problem intermittently and it is increasing.
    As a temporary solution, we are using a cable to connect to a regular monitor, which stabilizes the laptop screen as well.  At this moment, I am able to read the computer images on the monitor and on my laptop screen, after awhile though, the laptop screen typically starts flickering again.  I am able to still read the monitor (so I can use my computer), but not the laptop screen.
    Do you think it is a loose cable or the inverter or something else?
    Thanks for the info.

      If the external doesn’t work either then the problem might not be the screen, but the graphics chipset in the laptop. You should probably have it checked by a specialist (in fact most people here could use that…).

    Hi,

    I have an HP DV4000-1465 laptop. Few days ago my LCD screen started flickering (thin horizontal lines) upward whenever I turned on my laptop. However, it gets stabilized after five to ten minutes and the flickering completely dissappeared Once it is stabilized, the LCD screen worked fine for hours (one time I worked almost all night and it was fine).

    One of my friends told me it might be the connection problem instead of the LCD screen itself. Any suggestions or ideas to troubleshoot it? Thank you!

    Hi . I have an HP Compaq Presario .

    The screen flickers but no black or any colours will appear just merely the flickering of the screen. If I use an external monitor it works perfectly fine. The system’s okay .just the flickering, I’m wondering, would it be the cord , inverter or LCD that is going wrong with my laptop . I’m really afraid on how it would cost me.
    Thanks I really appreciate if someone could answer back.

    ps. I’m 14 and I don’t wanna try messing up on trying to open the laptop. cause’ maybe , you know, I could break it.

    and the flickering was just mild before. visible on on the taskbar part but now, it starts to go up.

    ok i’m ready to give up, cry, throw my notebook out the window or maybe all 3.  long story short, i replaced my screen and now my laptop won’t power on at all.  it was powering on fine before i replaced the screen, i know the moment the screen was hit accidentally and it wound up with a nice big black spreading blotch so i’m sure that was the issue.  i ordered a replacement for my lenovo ideapad s10-2 on ebay.  found a video and walked through the process.  only thing that seems to be different in other posts/material is that on this machine the only wires connected to the laptop from the screen was the ribbon with the connecter at the end.  no inverter cable coming from the old screen connected to the laptop.
    anyway, followed instructions, plugged in and nothing.  does not power on with battery attached either but i think it may be dead because the computer’s been unused for quite some time without staying plugged in.  not positive though.
    how would this relate to no power at all?  can’t figure it out and nothing i’m reading seems identical to my problem.  i’m an average tinkerer, have fixed lots of computer probs and cell phone probs, screens etc so thought i should be able to handle this.  plus the cost quoted for a repair makes it senseless to fix it, it’s close to the cost of what it was brand new. 
    help!!   and thanks :)

    Hi,
    My Acer Aspire laptop has Screen problem, If I hold the screen vertically( 90 degree angle) some times it blinks or the screen completely become black, but if I open more flat (say some 120-130 degree) it functions normally, what might be the reason?

    I have an Asus n80vb series laptop. The screen broke so I replaced it. I was getting a white screen before with some lines and black spots everywhere but the computer worked when plugged in to an external monitor. The new LCD doesn’t even turn on it just stays black, I’m sure the video cable is connected properly since I checked. What could be the problem?
    Thanks.

    I have a HP series laptop with a lot of software uploaded on it. Everything is working fine except a part of the screen.  Due to a band of blue and green lines on one-third of the screen, I cant  see anything in that portion of the screen.I am able to download and read my mails by moving every thing upwards , but since the bottom half is completely opaque, I cant respond to my mails. Is there anyway to fix the laptop without replacing the screen ? Also, besides being very expensive, it seems as if the screen replacement is not such a good solution . Thanks and regards, Ratna.

    I have a compaq laptop. Yesterday when I opened my laptop everthing seemed to be working fine but then suddenly my laptop’s screen became absolutely white. I cannot see my homescreen but only the white colour. Then I switched it off immediately. When I opened it again after an hour or so the white screen appeared again but after some time it worked fine. After that few thin thread like lines appeared on about 1/4th of my screen. Some say there is a problem of motherboard or hard-disk or about connection of graphics card or the laptop screen. Can you please answer me what actually the problem is? Please reply soon.
    With regards,

It kept scrambling and turning colors. The computer works the screen just doesnt not come on. I had it hooked up to my Sony Bravia LCD television and it worked fine on the tv screen. I now have a smaller LCD tv I want to connect it to. It shows the start up on the screen but once it boots up I have no image. Any info or suggestions on how I can make this work. Thanx.

      there is a lot of simple ways to fix this..
      If you have a newer PC you should be able to press “fn” while pressing the button that presents two screens (a lit one, with a sun in it, and an arrow pointing to a completely white/black screen). This button makes you switch between two ore more screens.. If does not work, i have experienced another solution, where you simply had to blow once or twice in the cable, and in the cable entrance.. that can help too..

        I disagree. You can take out as many components as possible, and put them on a radiator or something warm, then put the rest of your laptop (open, keyboard and screen downwards) let it dry for a week or more, and put all the components back.. try to start up your computer, and it should run OK.. Well not 100 percent as it did before, but rather good enough to studies and stuff like that. :D

      now this could be a result of ctrl in combination with the arrow key try to us ctrl+alt+ the arrow keys/ctrl+the arrow keys (depending on the OS). Or he has been dragging the mouse around and has moved them if so left click on the task bar and go to properties, then (task bar location) and click bottom/ or click unlock taskbar then use ur mouse and drag the task bar to the bottom.

I still have a little time for the warranty but when i claim it, they just replace the screen and return, which i cannot trust anymore, as it has failed twice.

    Thanks some of your ideas ended up saving me from buying a new inverter or screen. All that was wrong was the cable the connects to the back of the lcd came off. All fixed now! :)

    To me, you are the bomb (yeah I still say that). You are the only person who suggested the simple simple idea of checking/cleaning the screen/hinge switch. The first time I touched it, the screen popped right on! Tomorrow when I get up (it’s late here) I’m going to clean it out properly! Thanks very much, I had almost ordered an inverted. This has been like this for weeks.

    I have a HP Laptop model G62 that is having screen issues that require me to adjust my screen and hold pressure in a specific spot on screen or else the screen is light or even completely white and I can’t see what I’m typing.

    My screen has always stayed on and now it turns itself off. I do not turn off my computer or the screen. Can anyone tell me what/how to correct this “nuisance” of the screen turning off?
    Thanks

    About a week ago I droped my laptop. Now when my Dell Inspiron is loading the right side of the screen has a long black shape with a white top. On certain pages the color is distorted, flickering and many small lines running thru the page.
    Do I need to replace my screen? I just got this 3 months ago.
    Thanks for your help.

      Hi Lori,

      Listening to your dilemma, I think you need to replace your screen.

      Thanks!

      Try connecting it to an external screen using HDMI or VGA connector (whichever you have) to verify that everything else works, that it’s not an issue with software or some other component. If picture shows on an external screen and you can boot as normal, then the screen is at fault or the connections to the screen.

      I’d recommend you take it to a technician for diagnostics first (which are sometimes free or cheap), but you’ll likely need to replace the screen.

    I am so proud of myself for fixing my my laptop screen which went white and flickered for the past several weeks — worked like like honda93, rhonda and others describe – I could get the screen to work by pressure, etc. but it was flickering and fading out all the time. Today I noticed a tiny screw in the casing near the screen was missing – so, before ordering a new screen or I replaced it and tightened all the screws and screen is fixed and working perfectly! Try cleaning and home maintenenance first (although my cleaning is probably how I lost the loosened screw…..:) )
