LG Gram 15": How to fix the hinges on LG Gram 15.6"

Tue, 14 May 2024 10:09:37 -0700

The screen/lid on my 15Z980-A.AAS8U1 is wobbly and I suspect one of the hinges is broken or loose. How do I go about fixing this? If I need new hinge parts, where can I order them?

LG Gram 15": Spilled a little water and now 2 key and A key do not work.

Mon, 20 Jul 2020 14:51:33 -0700

So a day ago I spilled a little water on my laptop’s keyboard. I checked most of the keys and I found only 2 and A don’t work. Today I checked again and 3 has also kicked the bucket. Am I screwed or do I need something to dry the water? I haven’t tried anything except keeping the lid open and placing it upside down on a slant. Please tell me if I need to replace it or I can keep the current keyboard.

LG Gram 15": Source for replacement parts? Charges but won't start

Mon, 27 Jan 2020 09:03:13 -0700

Hello,

Anyone know where to buy a replacement shell for the LG Gram laptop, model 13z980? (P.s. I know the model on my post is 15”, but 13” wasn’t an option.

I’ve searched high and low on the internet, but it seems to be a less common laptop.

It charges (the little light on the side turns on), but it won’t boot up. There’s a pea size hole in the shell to the left of the keyboard. My friend doesn’t know how it got there, but he says it just stopped turning on after that happened.

Thanks!

LG Gram 15": Replacing keyboard - need adhesive?

Sun, 25 Aug 2019 22:39:07 -0700

The LG Gram 15” Repairability Assessment says “Keyboard is hidden beneath thin-film insulator taped in place. If you're performing a keyboard replacement, you'll need to buy replacement adhesive for this film.”

Can someone tell me exactly what replacement adhesive to buy and where to buy it? Is there also a possibility that I might damage the thin-film insulator and need to replace it? If so, where would I get it?

Thanks for any help, the keyboard is driving me nuts! If anyone has done this and has advice, I would be very grateful to hear it!!

LG Gram 15": Does not turn on after liquid damage_LG gram

Fri, 12 Jul 2019 07:28:19 -0700

Hello,

A few days ago, my laptop (LG Gram 15Z960-GA50K) was liquid damaged as you can see the picture uploaded. The liquid consists of milk, honey, and mixed grain powder.

After noticing this problem, I have dismantled my laptop to disconnect the battery to avoid another catastrophe, and cleaned the motherboard thoroughly with isoprophyl alcohol.

However, my laptop does not turn on unluckily although I turned on the laptop after leaving it to dry for over 24 hours (No LED light on on the power button as well).

I have scrutinized the motherboard to find any burning signs and could not find any sign of them.

How can I save my laptop back?

Please let me help.
