Einleitung

This guide will walk you through the replacement of a damaged USB board on the right side of your HP Chromebook 14-ak041dx. If you are unable to insert a device into the USB ports on the right side of your computer, or the device you insert is not being recognized by the computer, your USB board may be internally damaged, and may need to be replaced.

    • Using a pair of tweezers, remove the five grey silicone covers.

    • Remove the five 5mm Phillips #0 screws beneath the grey silicone covers.

    • Place them aside where they will not be lost.

    I’d love a solution to replace the grey silicone covers which are no longer sticky enough. Can you or anyone else advise? I am open to buying a new sticky circle, just not sure where to turn!
