Removing toshiba satellite A10 keyboard
On almost all Toshiba models, there is a removeable trim strip above or below the keyboard that "snaps" out ("snapping it out" is an art that you learn from experience, and it is quite possible to break the trim strip (plastic) if you don't do it right). Once this is removed, the eyboard either just lifts out, or is held by between 2 and 4 screws
that are obvious and under the trim strip. On the back of the keyboard is a part number, replacement keyboards are readily available, anywhere from $25 to $50. batter-adapter.com is a good source. The keyboard connects to the
laptop with a "flex cable" that goes into a "ZIF" (zero insertion force) socket. You MUST know how to work the ZIF socket, if you try to insert or remove the flex cable without "unlocking" the socket, you will ruin the cable (keyboard) or socket, or both. Unfortunately, there are about 5 styles of ZIF sockets used, All of this comes with training.
