Introduction |
This guide will walk you through replacing your Dell Inspiron 17R-N7110 touchpad. You will be handling delicate electronic components during this replacement, so be sure to wear the anti-static wrist strap. You will also be using an iOpener to heat the glue under the touchpad sensor. The iOpener gets very hot, so it needs to be handled with care to avoid personal injury. Finally, a metal jimmy is used to pry up the touchpad sensor. It is recommended to attempt to use a plastic spudger, but in the event that the plastic spudger does not work, our guide shows the use of a metal jimmy. If you resort to using a metal jimmy as well, use extreme caution, as the use of metal tools with delicate electronic components can cause damage to the device and/or personal injury. |
