Hinge popped out from screen.

Colgxn · ‎12-19-2022

My hinge somehow popped out from under the bottom right corner of the screen. I can fold it flat but the screen casing has closed back from where it’s popped out from and I can’t put it back in. The screen is working perfectly as normal. How hard if a fix is this? Thanks in advance.

It involves a complete disassembly of the notebook and depending on where the damage is, it could cost 150 GBP or more.

Hinge replacement is at 29:54 in the video.

If you decide against investing more into in the notebook, leave it open and create a stand so it does not close and cause further damage.

Disassembly will be required to see what damage is present. I hope the video gives you a better idea of what is involved.
