Schwierigkeitsgrad

Moderate

Schritte

Zeitaufwand

10 - 15 Minuten

Einleitung

Due to the unpredictable and limited life of the cooling fan replacement is needed to keep the computer running optimally.

Werkzeuge

Schritt 1

Turn off the laptop.
Slide the battery lock to the right until you see the open lock symbol.

Schritt 2

Slide the battery release to the left until the battery pops up.
This may require significant force.

Schritt 4

Using the metal spudger, pry up the screw covers.

Schritt 5

Remove the fifteen 7mm screws holding the back casing on using the Phillips #00 screwdriver.

Schritt 6

Remove the 7mm screw holding the disc drive in place using the Phillips #00 head screwdriver.

Schritt 7

Using an iFixit opening tool, push the disc drive away from the outer case.
Once the disk drive is out far enough it easily slides out.

Schritt 8

Remove the four 7mm screws holding the back resting plates on using the Phillips #00 screwdriver.
Using a metal spudger lift up on the back resting plate until it pops off.

Schritt 9

Remove the two 7 mm screws behind the plate using a Phillips #00 screwdriver.

Schritt 10

Pry up on the case with an iFixit opening tool until you can feel a snap.
Pry around the remainder until you can separate the case from the keyboard with your hands.
Gently separate the two.

Schritt 11

Remove the four 2mm screws on the heatsink with a Phillips #00 screwdriver.
Remove the heatsink.
When setting the heatsink down, set it face down to avoid putting the thermal paste on the work surface.
When reinstalling the heatsink, be sure to clean the contact surfaces and reapply fresh thermal paste.

Why are the circles significantly differently sized? Try to condense the first step (e.g., Remove the 4 2 mm screws holding the heat sink in place). Also, since you told the user to do that, you don’t need to use transitions, like once removed. Check for commas with introductory phrases. See iFixit’s feedback about links.
