Einleitung

In the event that the screen on your Lenovo ThinkPad X1 Yoga 2nd Generation gets cracked, has a distorted display, or fails to turn on entirely, use this guide to disconnect and replace the screen.

Replacing the screen requires taking out the majority of components from your laptop, so it’s advised that you keep every piece you take out as organized as possible to make for an efficient reassembly.

To stay safe and maintain the quality of your components, do not bend or hit the screen with too much force, as it is a fragile piece that will break under the wrong conditions.

    • Use a Phillips #0 screwdriver to remove the eight 8 mm screws.

    More pricesely, screws need to be unscrewed, but not removed, since they stay attached to the back cover. Trying to remove them may damage the small gaskets around the screw shaft.
