Introduction
Do you need to replace your HP Stream 11-y010nr keyboard? Or do you need to access internal components only accessible through the keyboard? This guide will take you through the necessary steps to take off and replace the keyboard. Use caution when taking the keyboard off however, as this could be sharp (or have sharp components underneath the keyboard). Additionally, ribbons (thin wires) are attached to the keyboard, so use caution when taking it off.
Prior to beginning, ensure the laptop is completely powered off such that it will not interfere with the steps in this guide.
