How to take apart and repair Toshiba laptops yourself

The following laptop step-by-step disassembly manuals I have created myself. You can use them if you have a Toshiba laptop and want to repair or upgrade it yourself. You shouldn’t disassemble your laptop if you have no experience with computers because you can easily damage it. Also, you shouldn’t open it if the laptop is still under warranty. I’m still developing new laptop teardown guides and my goal is to add new guides every week. If you do not see a manual for your model, most likely I will add it later. Stay tuned.

I’m still working on creating new disassembly guides. For more information please visit my Toshiba laptop disassembly site.

    It looks like the wireless card is installed and detected (X on the icon), but doesn’t work properly. If the LED light doesn’t turn on it indicates a hardware problem. It is possible that the wireless card is bad. It is also possible that the I/O board is bad. Is it possible that the wireless card antennas are not connected to the card? Try to reseat the card.

    Hi Dean,
    Are you sure that the wireless card is installed in your laptop? When you turn on the switch does the Wi-FI LED lights? May be your wireless connection is just disabled. You can check it if you open the network connection properties. Go to Start-Control Panel-Network Connections. See if the wireless network connection icon is grayed out. Right click on it and enable.
    Check is the device manager if you can see the wireless network adapter. If you see a yellow exclamation mark close to it, try to reload the wireless card driver.

    Hey Steve,
    If you want to relocate the jack you still have to open the laptop case and go inside. I think if you solder it properly, it will last for a long time hopefully. :)
    Unfortunately, I do not know anyone who relocated the DC jack, you’ll be first.

    I have a replacement jack for my Satellite A65. I’m just wondering if it’s worth the trouble to replace the poorly designed original jack, or if it might be better to replace it with a surfact-mounted jack that wouldn’t be so succeptible to leverage when the computer is moved around or used in bed. Do you know of anyone who had actually relocate the jack to a place away from the motherboard?
