Is your clock resetting itself or USB on the right side not working? Replace it!
Was du brauchst
-
-
Orient the computer so that the side with the line of screws on it is away from you.
-
Use your thumbs to push both battery release tabs away so that the edge of the battery lifts up.
-
Lift the battery out of the computer.
-
-
-
Lift the memory door up enough so that you can get a grip on it, and slide it toward you, pulling it away from the casing.
-
-
-
Release the tabs on each side of the RAM chip at the same time. These tabs lock the chip in place and releasing them will cause the chip to "pop" up.
-
Pull the chip directly out from its connectors. If there is a second RAM chip installed, pop it out in the same manner.
-
-
-
1) With your fingernails, grasp the locking bar on either side slide it a small amount (about 1/16" or 2 mm) towards the battery.
-
2) After disengaging the locking bar, slide the cable out of the connector.
Where can I get a replacement clip for the ribbon cable?
you’re a repair shop and you can’t get the connector? or have a stockpile to pull from? I could use that connector too ~
the ribbon cable for keys and trackpad you shown are not consistent - my PB17” A1107 has just the thinner cable like one shown in prior pic~
-
-
-
Loosen the trackpad connector by pulling the locking bar toward the battery housing, using the tips of your fingers.
-
Slide the trackpad cable out of the loosened connector.
-
Note: When reassembling the case, the trackpad cable can get stuck below the slot to the motherboard. It's possible to nudge it out slowly by gently prodding it on either side with a small screwdriver. You don't need to use much force to do this. Eventually it will just pop back out and you can reconnect as per the instructions above. Also, note that the locking bar comes loose so if you see a little piece of plastic lying around when reassembling, that's what it is. :)
The locking bar is UNDER the cable. It is a tiny grey (metal?) piece the width of the connector. A tiny flat head screwdriver can be handy for moving one side then another in increments towards the battery compartment. Finger nails may be too clumsy for this.

Remove the following 10 screws from the bottom case:
-
Three 1.7 mm Phillips from the front edge of the battery compartment.
-
One 3.9 mm T8 Torx to the right of the memory card.
-
One 6.9 mm T8 Torx at the left edge of the memory compartment.
-
Three 12.4 mm fully threaded Phillips from the center of the row of screws along the back edge of the case.
-
Two 15.1 mm 2.5 mm threaded Phillips, one from either end of the row of screws along the back edge of the case.
-
-
-
Turn the computer over and rotate it so that the DVI port faces you.
-
Remove the four identical Phillips screws spread along this edge of the case.
-
-
-
Turn the computer 180 degrees so that the power receptacle faces you, and remove the four Phillips screws (identical to those in the last step).
-
-
-
Open the computer and turn it so that the screen faces you.
-
Pull the upper case off, lifting from the back, and working around the edges.
-
-
-
Use a spudger to loosen the casing if it sticks.
-
Once the casing is entirely free, lift it off of the computer.
BE VERY CAREFUL when replacing the keyboard to thread the keyboard ribbon cable through the slot. The steps didn't appear to make this warning and when I replaced all screws, found that it was jammed and would not come through to connect with the connector. I had to undo a lot of steps to go back and rethread it properly.

-
-
Remove the four ( 3 - 6.9 mm & 1 - 4 mm) T8 Torx screws from the four corners of the SuperDrive.
-
-
-
Lift the optical drive at the right, front corner, and slide it out of the computer (be careful not to catch the PRAM battery cable).
-
-
-
Use the method described in the step for disconnecting the keyboard ribbon to loosen the connectors at either end of the PRAM battery ribbon.
-
Remove the ribbon from the connectors.
-
-
-
Lift the board out of the computer.
