Replace Dell Latitude D630 screen hinge

Step 1:

You need to take out the plastic cover between keyboard and the hinges first.

Step 2:

Takeing out the LCD screen and disassemble it. Please notice dissemble the LCD screen is trivial — just take out all the rubber pad, unscrew everything, and take the cover out. Then you can take out the existing broken hinges and replace with the new ones.

It is actually not that hard when you open it up. The most difficult bit is probably unscrewing the screws on the screen as they are tiny (and lots of them). Once you opened them up, it would be obvious where things should go.

Step 3:

Getting Dell Latitude D630 hinge replaced is pretty trivial — basically just open up the cover of Latitude’s LCD monitor, take the old hinges out, and put the new ones back in. A few screws need to be unscrewed/screw back in along the process.

Now it is back to life again with the new hinges, so LCD screen no longer requires external support.
