Einleitung

    • Shut down the computer.

    • Disconnect the power and all external devices connected to the computer.

    • Working on your device while it is turned on may result in electric shock.

    • Use a Metal Spudger and remove the rubber foot closet from the bottom of the laptop.

  3. xO2oIVxVihIMUncV

    • Remove all of the screws located on the bottom of the laptop:

    • 5 Phillips 2.4 x 5.7 mm screws

    • 5 Phillips 2.0 x 5.0 mm screws

    • Make special note of each screw and screw lock size and location during removal and replacement.

    “5 Phillips 2.4 x 5.7 mm screws”

    “5 Phillips 2.0 x 5.0 mm screws”

    I think the color for the sizes are mixed up, because the one near the screen bending part are the bigger ones, yet it says they are the “2.0 x 5.0 mm” but they are the bigger ones.

    If I’m wrong, tell me because I’m not sure if thats the ways they’re named because I’m not an expert at screw sizes.

    • The keyboard is attached internally by clips. Use a small amount of force when removing the keyboard.

    • Use the Plastic Opening Tool to separate the keyboard from the base of the laptop.

    • Raise the keyboard slightly to access the touch pad and keyboard cables.

    • Raising the keyboard too far or with excessive force may cause damage to the keyboard, touch pad cables, or their connectors.

    • Disconnect the ribbon cables attaching the touch pad and keyboard to the system board (motherboard).

    • Using the Heavy-Duty Spudger lift up the plastic locks connecting the ribbon cable to the motherboard.

    • Use the blue plastic tab on the ribbon cable to pull it out from the lock on the motherboard.

Where's the replacement?

I have just the keyboard without the panel. How can I replace that?

Melwyn Williams -

you have to pry off like 50 stupid dinky little rubber clips from the underside of the palmrest that hold the keyboard onto the palmrest. then insert your new keyboard and solder it on to the bottom side of the palmrest. I used the little rubber clips as solder when I replaced a non-backlit keyboard for a backlit one on a pavilion x360. it’s tedious, and you do need a soldering rod.

I’d like to clean the under part of my keyboard keys on Hp Paviliion 360, how do I go about that?

Hawkins Lee -

You have to read my comment right above and detach the keyboard from the palmrest on the underside by prying off the dinky little clips holding the keyboard to the palmrest . Then you'd be able to clean the keyboard as it would be free from the palmrest. Then you'd have to reassemble it with a soldering rod. Good luck. This is why HP sells the keyboard and palmrest as one piece for this laptop. It's a difficult job to separate the two and as if not more difficult reassembling it.
