Use this guide to replace the combined LCD / Touch Screen assembly as a single unit. It was inspired by the original ASUS VivoBook S400C Touch Screen Replacement guide.

Please note that the procedure for separating the display assembly from the top housing is incorrect in that guide and will result in damage to the touch screen bezel and/or the housing. Most of the videos on YouTube are similarly incorrect. If the tutorial does not start out by removing the display from the base, do not follow it.

The touch screen / LCD cannot be removed from the housing without breaking retainers unless the display assembly has been removed from the base of the computer.

As quoted from the original guide:

If your ASUS VivoBook S400C has a broken touchscreen or continues to have issues even after going through the touch screen trouble shooting guide to rule out any software issues, use this guide to replace it. Before you begin, make sure the laptop is completely turned off and the battery has been removed.

Warning: If the glass display is completely shattered, please remain safe by following the directions here on how to tape over any glass and prevent being hurt.

Note: Make sure the new screen has the same resolution and size as the original screen. You may get some help on finding this information by visiting this website.

Guides are also available for replacing the LCD or the touch screen individually.
