Today I found a great source with service manuals for Sony Vaio VGN series laptops and notebooks. Links to the service manuals were posted on one of the Russian forums (comment 13). Not sure for how long these service manuals will be available for downloads but they are the time of wringing this post. Some files are large and it might take some time to download them, so be patient.

All service manuals are in PDF format and you can download them using below mentioned links.

Raf,
Your description sounds like a problem with the LCD screen. Apparently there is a bad solder joint somewhere on the LCD controller and it fails intermittently.

I have the 17 inch VGN-AR770. I am a little pissed off considering this laptop just past it’s 1 year mark and the warranty is expired. I have barely used it and left it in pristine condition.
Spontaneously the monitor will “freeze” the current image and then slowly turn white with some faint gray blotches. If I move the top of the laptop toward me, sometimes the image comes back to normal. If I move it backward, then the image freezes and goes white again.
External monitor works fine. I opened the top and bottom of the laptop, and checked the connection on both sides, it seems fine. Is it possible that the cable is getting squished in the hinge..judging from the fact that moving the top back and forth causes the problem to re-appear or go away? Lately I have been using the laptop without the LCD bezel, and I removed the left speaker to give the cable more breathing room. I think this is ridiculous! The problem does happen sponataneously so I don’t know if I’ve truly narrowed down the problem yet. Have you ever seen something like this?
Thanks! (love the website and I used the link for your AR service manuals!)

Vickie,
It’s like asking an auto mechanic. “My car will not start, what’s wrong?”
I don’t know how your laptop fails and I cannot give you a good advice. Test the power adapter first. Make sure the laptop is getting power from the wall.

Cara,
Check out this disassembly guide for a Sony Vaio VGN-FZ220 notebook, could be similar to your notebook.

Nor should we go looking for assistance without giving the model number. VGN Fz27G.

Okay I have a Sony Vaio laptop at work I need to replace the keyboard on. No one seems to be able to tell me how to dismantle to replace this part in the model that I have. Any help greatly appreciated (vet nurses shouldn’t play around with such things without a guide)

I pulled off the “wire” while replaceing my back light.The wire dose not look like a copper one. Inside the insulation looks like a string. What can I do to fix my blunder?—Jim—
