This is a guide on replacing an LCD on a Dell G3 15 laptop.

For the replacement process we will need the following tools:
- plastic pick
- and tweezers

To begin shut down the laptop and disconnect the power cord.
Now we can remove the bezel. Start from the left side. Gently pulling the inner edge of the bezel
away from the glass. Once the edge is unsnapped go around the perimeter unsnapping the tabs
at the top, right side and the bottom. Release the hinge cover and put the bezel aside.

The LCD screen is held in-place with two strips of double-sided adhesive, and there are two plastic
pull tabs that should allow you to pull the strips out. Using tweezers pick the right tab and start pulling
the adhesive away releasing the right side of the screen. Discard the used adhesive strip.
Repeat the same action on the left side of the LCD screen.

Place the LCD screen on the keyboard. Using plastic pick and fingers peel the clear tape securing
the video connector. Open the connector’s bracket and using both hands disconnect the cable. Remove the piece of a
sticky tape under the video connector but keep it, we are going to reuse it with a new screen.
Discard the old LCD screen.

At this point the new screen can be installed. Place the screen on the keyboard and reconnect the
video cable. Close the connector’s bracket and secure it with clear tape.

CAUTION! It is very important not to force any connectors. As well you must not twist or slant the connector when plugging it in.

Your new LCD screen is likely to come with no adhesive. We offer standard double-sided tape for
such repairs on our site: laptopscreen.com. Before we can apply adhesive strips we have to thoroughly
clean the surfaces, both on LCD screen and back cover. Use alcohol and paper towel or any other
soft material.

Apply adhesive strips to the back cover insuring that pull tabs will be loose under the new screen.
Remove the protective film. Lift the screen up and press firmly along the edges to catch the adhesive.
Secure the cable with a piece of sticky tape.

At this point we can test the new screen. Reconnect the power cord and turn the laptop on. If the
start up graphics appear, the screen is working and we can finish the replacement process.

Turn the laptop off. Remove the protective film from the new LCD screen. Start replacing the bezel.
Go along the perimeter pressing firmly to snap tabs back in place. Support the back cover with one hand
and snap the bezel along the hinge cover. Turn the laptop over and make sure the hinge tabs are snapped.

Reconnect the power cord. Turn the laptop on and we are done
