Replacement Lenovo ThinkPad T470s screen by LaptopScreen.com

Tools

For the replacing process we will need the following tools: a Plastic Pick and a Phillips Screwdriver

Shut down the laptop

To begin turn off the laptop and disconnect the power cord

Remove the bezel

The bezel is held in place with tabs and adhesive along the inner perimeter.
Start releasing the bezel by moving the plastic pick along the inner edge.
Then using fingers start unsnapping the tabs. Remove the bezel

Remove four screws

Using a Phillips screwdriver remove four screws in the corners. Place the screen on the keyboard.
The video cable is pretty tied fit into the cable guide so you might need to loosen it a bit

Disconnect the video cable

Using plastic pick and fingers peel off a clear tape securing the video connector.
Open the connector’s bracket. Disconnect the video cable. Discard the old screen

Connect the new screen

Place the new screen on the keyboard. Since the video cable is short, move the screen as close
as possible to the back cover. You might also need to release the cable from its guide a little bit.
Reconnect the video cable. Close the connector’s bracket. Secure it with a clear tape.
CAUTION! It is very important not to force any connectors. Also make sure not
to twist or slant the connector when plugging it in

Test the new screen

Lift the screen up. Now we can test the screen. Turn the laptop on. The screen is working
and we can finish the installation process

Install the new screen

Replace the four Phillips screws in the corners

Replace the bezel

Press firmly in the corners. Then go along the perimeter snapping the tabs back in place.
Close the laptop and make sure that the bezel is snapped near the hinge covers.

Turn the laptop on, and we are done!
