Fujitsu Siemens Esprimo v5535 fixed!

Connector on back of screen had become partially disconnected.

Solution (half an hour’s work):

Prise up and remove cover at top of keyboard, releasing from the two hinges behind the screen.
Remove rubber stops, remove screws prise shell apart gently.
Disconnect two pull-apart connectors at base of screen.
Remove two screws on bottom hinge brackets.
Ease screen away from rear cover.
Carefully peel back adhesive tape that holds plug in place, reconnect plug and replace tape.
Replace hinge screws, reconnect pull-apart plugs.
Gently snap front cover back into place, replace screws and rubber stops.
Replace keyboard cover.

Thanks for your hints!

Sir,

Similar thing happened to my Sony Vaio CR190 LCD this weekend. Hehe, you know why I am here. LCD panel show very bright white (some black line, spots and bordering). This happens from BIOS POST onwards (so not a Windows/Linux) problem.

The laptop runs perfect with an external LCD monitor connected to the projector (VGA) port. very rarely the LCD panel on the laptop also shows perfect picture.

I will try re-seating the LCD panel video cable.

So my questions are:

Is it a GPU/MoBo/VRAM problem or is it an LCD-panel/inverter/cable problem ?

It is possible to replace LCD-panel/cable/Inverter ? The laptop’s outside warranty and Sony is asking for $400+ for replacement, too much in my opinion.

Where can I buy replacement LCD-panel (if that is enough) ? Are the ones on eBay reliable enough ? Or are there reliable sellers out there on eBay ?

Running the laptop with an external monitor sort of defeats the portability factor. I would really want to keep it portable. Any help will be appreciated !!!

Thank you,
Bubai

Hello
I have a Dell 1501. One day water drops got into it and since then i cannot use it properly.

When i attach an external monitor, i can use it.
Recently i opened it and moved the LCD (the whole thing) to a Dell 1505. And the LCD worked.

But when i use the laptop with it’s LCD nothing in displayed. I see a difference in lighting thou.

What is the problem?

BjjDrh,

The other day my 1 year old daughter got ahold of my laptop, and she threw her toy at it, and left a crack in the bottom…Now I see a black screen when I turn it on…The computer is running and the screen lights up, it just is black…

Can you test your laptop with video on the external monitor? Can you get the external monitor working?
