Disassembling a Dell Latitude LS

[Guybrush]

My friend has a Latitude where the LCD connection to the motherboard seems to have gotten disconnected. Anyone have any experience taking these apart? I've disassembled many a Powerbook in the past, but i'm wondering if the Dells are harder.

I tore down my old Dell Latitude LM. It was a piece of cake. Of course, your results may vary.

It is a bit of a pain but not hard.

There is a small hole in the plastic cover between the screen and keyboard, put a paperclip in there and slid to the left.

There are 4 screws to remove the keyboard.

There is one screw holding a metal tie down on the video cable on the left hand side.

Hope this helps
