You don’t have to disconnect the display from the main body. Just be careful cause the plastic lcd bezel has strong adhesive and it is easy to crack the plastic bezel when separating it from the LCD panel.
I usually skip most all of this and start with the bezel, disconnecting the screen wire AT THE SCREEN, and not at the motherboard. 4 screws around the bezel, and 4 screws in the screen. Leave everything connected and skip to step 12.
