Dell Inspiron 15 7579: Dell Inspiron 15 7000 series hinge and screen locks broken.

My laptop’s hinge is broken when I am turning it in 360-degree angle and it made a cracking sound from then and due to that the locks that hold my screen and the back of the screen are also being separated, also one of those locks is broken due to that and can’t hold it, so what do I need to fix this?

Dell Inspiron 15 7579: No boot, no fan spin, but CPU heatsink is warm.

Sun, 18 Nov 2018 12:48:14 -0700

Hello, I'm looking for some diagnostic help. I have a Dell Inspiron 15 7579 which randomly shut off and is now completely unresponsive. Inside looks clean and I see no signs of water damage. I have replaced the battery and after doing so, the charging light illuminates, but it will not boot. I did notice that even though it doesn't boot, the GPU/CPU die does get warm while charging. Any suggestion regarding where to look next would be appreciated. The charging port seems to be functional, based on the illumination of the charging light. I don't have enough experience with logic board repairs to be able to identify an individual motherboard components which may be malfunctioning.

Hi, I am having some major trouble. It seems as if the plastic socket on the motherboard to connect the lcd is broken. It looks the socket has been pulled and broken off from the board. Is there any way to fix this without replacing the motherboard? Please help.

Dell Inspiron 15 7579: I cannot unplug the battery connector

Hi,

I’m trying to unplug the battery from the laptop to work inside it, but the connector just won’t come out. I’m pulling pretty hard on the cloth part of the connector, but all I manage to do is detaching the cloth from the cable.

Dell Inspiron 15 7579: How do I keep the back cover and the screen from separating?

Tue, 29 Aug 2023 19:46:50 -0700

The screen is starting to come off from the back. Closing it will make it worse, if you can even close it, and last time I just had to set the screen against the lid and not move it. This will be the second time I will need to get it fixed. What can be done?
