Lenovo yoga 13 DIY screen repair

In detail: lenovo yoga 13 do-it-yourself screen repair from a real master for the site my.housecope.com.

I took this laptop from my hands. The previous owner dropped it and flooded it. As a result, the display sensor was broken and the keyboard did not work. I replaced the keyboard, did not touch the sensor, because it is not sold separately, but only comes with the display matrix - a sandwich. Since then, I have been using a laptop for one year. Now it's time to clean it up.
In this video I have highlighted disassembly and Lenovo IdeaPad Yoga 13 laptop service Highlight the most important and critical points in the disassembly. Good luck and good mood!

I bought a laptop from my hands, everything was fine for a couple of months. Then a problem arose - from time to time, vertical multi-colored stripes appeared on the entire screen. What is typical:
1. On the cold never appear, at least 20 minutes should pass.
2. They may appear in an hour, or may not jump out in a day.
3. They also disappear and after them the screen does not return to normal immediately, but gradually, there are traces of them that disappear.
4. All this can happen on an absolutely motionless laptop (appear and disappear) and often at the moment the Windows screensaver is turned on.

As I understand, there can be three reasons - a loop, a matrix, a chip.
First of all, I disassembled, cleaned, changed the thermal paste. The Furmark benchmark lasted an hour, with a maximum temperature of 70 degrees. Did not help.
The second thing I did was to disassemble the matrix and when the glitch appeared, I began to change the train - zero effect. I also disconnected ALL connectors, checked the connection. (I bow that it's not about the loop)

The laptop screen is the most fragile part and is therefore often shattered. But there is nothing difficult in replacing the screen with your own hands and it is possible even at home.

Today we will look at how to change the entire display module using the example of the Lenovo Yoga 3 model 80JH laptop.

For self-repair we need:

1 Phillips screwdriver (preferably small, like ph00)

2 Spatula, plectrum or just a plastic card

Well, it is desirable, but not necessary

4 Brush and gasoline to wipe off old glue

Before proceeding with the replacement of the screen itself, it is imperative to disconnect the battery.

On this particular laptop, for this you will have to disassemble the case)))

Unscrew all the bolts from the bottom of the laptop

And pry off the bottom with a spatula

Now we see the built-in battery and can gently disconnect its connector

Well, you can start analyzing the screen part.

It can be easily disassembled by simply prying it off with a spatula.

The screen module on this laptop is not glued or screwed on, so we just disconnect all the cables and take out the coaxial cables. Do not forget to carefully peel off all the scarves.

In our case, a module came from the supplier with ready-made gluing for the boards, and we did not have to glue them ourselves.

But the black shielding on the module was missing, and we had to re-glue it from the old one.

After that, we put everything in the reverse order and use the laptop with pleasure!

Treat your laptops with care and you do not have to change screens on them))

But, and if, nevertheless, the misfortune has already happened, and you decided to fix it yourself, then carefully read the article and clearly follow all the instructions!

The notes in this manual should be better. Help us fix them or write new annotations.

This guide will explain how to safely remove the screen from your Lenovo Yoga 2 13 ″. It will provide a list of the tools needed as well as the easiest way to remove the screen without damaging it.

No details required.

Using an opening pick, remove one small black rectangle piece on two corners to locate screws.

Carefully remove one 4.762 mm screw from each corner using a Phillips head screwdriver.

Remove the long centerpiece covering between the hinges.

Detach the screen from the front panel, by sliding the screen up about 2mm. Do not pull too far, as there are still connected wires.

Locate the gold wire and follow it to two clips. Remove the clips and the clear tape securing the wire.

Gently unsnap the wire from the hooks along the perimeter, also removing any tape along the wire.

Completely separate the screen from the laptop.

During reassembly remember to set the screen about 2 mm beyond the lid top edge then slide down to engage the tanges.

To reassemble your device, follow these instructions in reverse order.

thanks for your guide. Step 1 and 2 - no problem. But how actually did you do step 3? I can’t detach the screen, I can just lift it a few millimeters at the corners or at the side, totally hard ..

edit: Ok got it: slide the touch-lcd up a bit 🙂

Hey Nichelle, do you have any recommended vendors for both the screen and the digitizer? Thanks!

We decided to clean the lenovo yoga ultrabook from dust. In terms of disassembly, the laptop is interesting, but it is very difficult to disassemble it without a special screwdriver (if suddenly someone wants to unscrew the screws with a star cap with a small flat screwdriver).

Usually, before starting all work, I write about the need to remove the battery, but here it is hidden in the case and physically it cannot be done without disassembling, so be careful not to accidentally turn it on when disassembling it (by pressing the on / off button).

We turn the laptop over and unscrew all the screws around the perimeter with a special screwdriver (asterisk).

We open the laptop in order to remove the keyboard, it is held by latches on the top, latches on the sides and bottom and latches in the middle in the form of hooks on the keyboard itself. Also on the sides on both sides double-sided tape. First, snap off the latches on top with a thin flat screwdriver.

Next, release the keyboard on the sides of the latches and double-sided tape and carefully slide the keyboard towards the monitor (to release the hooks from the slots in the case) and lift it.

We take out the keyboard cable from the motherboard and put the keyboard aside. We unscrew the 5 screws that were behind the keyboard.

We take out the cable (touchpad) on the right.

Now we need to remove the cable on the left (which is responsible for the power button and not only).

After all these operations, you can separate the top cover of the Lenovo Yoga laptop from the bottom, the whole thing is kept on latches that snap off without problems.

After opening, we see the insides of yoga in front of us, and the battery occupies a larger area than everything else and the most interesting thing is that the motherboard is slightly larger than a 5-inch smartphone in size.

We unscrew the 4 screws that hold the battery and disconnect it from the motherboard, as well as the cable that goes from the board to which the ssd hard drive is connected.

And here is a joke from the collectors, they drew a star 🙂

We unscrew the screws of the cooling system.

We also unscrew the screws that press the radiators to the processor and video card. Do not forget to disconnect the fan cable from the motherboard.

We look at how much dust has accumulated between the radiator and fans.

We clean out the dust and remove the old thermal grease.

Apply a new thermal paste and put it all back together.

ATTENTION. Before connecting the battery to the motherboard, you must first connect a ribbon cable with a laptop on / off button. when the battery is connected, the laptop automatically turns on, and since your laptop will be half disassembled, this is not very good. So by connecting the loop with the power button, you can turn it off without any problems when connecting the battery.

The Lenovo Yoga 2 13 is designed with quality and durability in mind for regular use at home and at work.

Hello, forum users and (hopefully) Lenovo employees.

I am writing here because I do not already know what to do. Some time ago, my Lenovo Yoga 2 13 cracked the display neatly (I won't go into details of how it cracked - that's another story, but if you're interested, google “lenovo yoga 2 13 cracked screen” and you will see that I am not alone

As usual in such cases, I called the support service, from where I was kindly directed to the site in the section of service centers. Here I saw many, many SCs in Moscow, but the first impression was deceiving. I removed irrelevant ones from the impressive table (only for legal entities, only for smartphones, etc.) and wrote in the rest (about 10). Of these they answered me two SC.

In the first, the cost of replacing the screen was almost equal to that of a laptop. In the second, they kindly agreed to change the screen for 10,000 rubles. Happy, I took the laptop to the address and waited. I waited 2 months, but in the end it turned out that SC cannot find the screen (“no”) and cannot help me in any way.

Independent searches on aliexpress and ebay also did not lead to success - either the price, again, is comparable to the cost of a laptop, which is nonsense, or the price is suspiciously low and I'm not sure if it's a fake. And in the end, buying a laptop from a decent reputable company (and this is what I think Lenovo is), I buy at least some kind of support, right?

Summing up, I want to ask the representatives of the company if such people drop in on the official forum. What should I do? Just please, do not advise me to contact the SC or search at flea markets (I read this advice in a similar topic on this forum). In other words, does Lenovo have real customer support Or it all ends after the purchase and all they can do to help me is to send it to a well-known section on the site?
