WORLD’S FIRST COMPLETE GUIDE TO LAPTOP & NOTEBOOK REPAIR

WORLD WIDE BOOK RELEASE,  NOW AVAILABLE!!

The target audience that would benefit from this book would include: current and aspiring computer repair technicians and facilities, Schools, Colleges, Laptop Repair technicians and all other areas of the IT (internet technology) field. The book was written to allow a novice or even the

one-timer to be able to follow along and achieve successful results.

Laptop repair information, to this day, is not a known subject and there is a great need and demand for this information to be available Worldwide.  I know this first hand because I have been actively selling a Website/Interactive Based version of my Book both on the internet (www.diy-laptoprepair.com), currently translated to 4 languages, and on EBay (seller: the_laptop_expert) for over a

year now with successful results.

My book goes into detailed internal component testing and repairing techniques, including instructions on how to repair the integrated video chip common failure issue, to which I hold a legal trademark(15831),copyright(1-345467488),and patent pending(61308926) for.  It is generalized to allow repair instruction for all laptop makes and models, and with step by step instructions including

photos to help comprehend.

My goal is to share my knowledge with the world and educate all interested in the correct methods to successfully repair any Laptop new or old, and to explain and teach it in a way that everyone can comprehend. Currently, Laptop repair is not widely taught, nor are there any special classes or courses to learn repair techniques. In any IT course, you are taught the basics of Laptop Repair, such as, hard drive replacement, virus removal, operating system install, memory upgrading and not much more.  I aim to change all of that and teach Complete Repair Techniques for All parts of the laptop, and in turn will change the laptop world as we know it.  People will finally be able to repair the part that is faulty instead of buying a new part or worse, buying a whole new laptop. This in turn will save countless amounts of money to people all over the world… People in parts of the world that cannot afford the Costly repair prices being charged, people that do not have access to new parts, will all be able to repair the faulty part, which will revolutionize Computer Repair as we know it.  It will allow Technicians all over the world to Gain the Experience and knowledge to correctly diagnose the Laptop Computer and will greatly profit from having learned such knowledgeable

information that has yet to exist, until now.

Chapter 1 Basic tools used by a Laptop Technician “discussion of both hand and power tools used” Here I will list the tools common name, then, I will give a brief description of that tool’s usages relating to Laptop repairing. Please note: Being that this is a DIY book, I will omit the tools that the average person can not obtain or tools that would be out of price range for most individuals. Phillips Head Screwdriver This is not the average sized screwdriver, as that would be too large for the tiny screws used on laptops today. This is the micro-sized screwdriver, which can be bought at your local Home Improvement store. I myself use an all-in-one screwdriver that houses the extra tips inside the screwdriver itself. Then, I also use the screwdriver set from an Eyeglass Repair Kit, or better yet, go on Ebay.com and search out: IPod Repair tool kit… this will include 3 or so screwdrivers and a couple plastic pictures for prying parts apart. Star Tipped Screwdriver This is also a commonly used tool, mainly used on the Macintosh brand, though also common on Dell, Alienware, and Sony Vaio. If you do not have access to one of these, you can purchase one from your local Auto Parts Store (ask the clerk for assistance in locating one) and you will definitely need the multiple tip pack to allow different sizes for different laptop models. Mini Pliers - I suggest that you buy mini needle nosed pliers because they are easier to use on the micro sized components that make up the laptop. The pliers I use are 3 inches long, I find that the normal sized pliers are way too big and do not reach into certain areas that the mini can. Toothbrush This, believe it or not, is the second most used tool in Laptop Repair. Yes. A toothbrush… You will use this on each and every laptop you repair. Why you ask? The toothbrush is used to clean any and all parts and components in and on

the laptop. Cleaning the laptop parts as you repair is detrimental to the longevity of the laptops life. It is used to clean the keyboard, the motherboard and any case part. More detailed usages will follow throughout this book and should be applied as instructed. Scissors - The smaller the better when obtaining your scissors. I use haircutting scissors because they are small and the cutting tips are thin and narrow. Electrical Tape This is used to wrap cables and wires, and used to secure or flatten wire or cable tracks on or in the laptop. I try not to use this on wire or cable wrapping if possible because I have found that over time the tape will slowly unravel and can become ―stickyǁ on the outer-side. Shrink Wrap Tubing - These can usually be found in variety packs, the larger of the sizes will be the one you use most commonly in laptop repair. These are placed over the repair area on the wire or cable, they are basically rubber tubes that you cut to your specifically needed length, then heat the tube to shrink it to the size of the wire or cable being repaired. Copper Foil Tape A less common item used, though you will eventually need this if you are repairing laptops on a regular basis. This will be used for motherboard PCB repair and more commonly used for DC Jack C-ring replacement/repair. Adjustable Pliers This is a less commonly used tool, though it will be needed at times. I will rarely use this on a DC Jack repair to gently wiggle the jack loose from the desoldered contact pads. You will find other uses for this tool so it is a good tool to add to your collection. Liquid (no residue) Flux - For this tool, I

recommend that you get both a paste form and the liquid PEN form. Both are readily available on Ebay for a small price, yet are hard to find locally at a store, you can try shopping at Radio Shack for Flux Paste, but doubtful they have the flux pens. Thin Tipped Black Permanent Marker - This is used often to mark screw holes, or to mark the areas of damage on the laptops parts. Plastic Prying Tools - These will be needed for almost every laptop repair procedure. When able, you will ALWAYS use plastic over metal to disassemble or work on the laptop or any electronic component. There are various kinds that are used and needed. A guitar pick is the most used tool, not a flimsy pick rather a slightly thicker guitar pick that can withhold bending back and forth numerous times. Another great plastic tool is one you will need to purchase off of Ebay and is part of the IPOD repair kit (do a search for these on Ebay.com). 2 Part Plastic/Metal Epoxy Glue You will find many varieties of this product and will have to choose the best one for yourself, I typically use the Black/Clear mix… As it has a longer drying time, it will allow more strength over time and hold up to heat exposure. This will be used in many areas of the laptop, and being that a laptop motherboard is SelfGrounded… it can be used directly on the PCB to cover components or traces. A common use for this Epoxy is for DC Jack Repair, as it will be used in the last step and applied to the jacks rear end and sides to help secure it to the motherboard. Also this will be used to brace the Jack when the laptops lower cases DC Jack holding cage breaks (common issue for Toshiba – newer model- laptops). Toothpicks - These have many uses and are a handy tool to have nearby. Used to apply fluxes, used to apply epoxies, also can be used to help plug or unplug certain ribbon cables or thin wire(s). Thermal Paste You will only be using Silver thermal paste in a Laptop, Never Ceramic Paste. Laptops will use 2 cooling sources…. Either

Silver paste or a thermal pad. Pads will be hard to repurchase, and silver thermal paste will be readily available for sale everywhere. If a part or component originally used a thermal pad, it is highly recommended that you keep using a pad and not switch it out to using paste… These pads also are used to cover a gap which is left for that specific part for thermal expansion and contraction. 30 to 50 Watt Soldering Iron You can use any brand of these and they are typically disposable. I recommend that you do dispose of the cheaper soldering irons after 10 or so uses, or get yourself some Tinner to refresh the tip. I do recommend a 50 watt iron for laptop component repair as it will allow for better ―flowǁ of the solder due to the higher temperature output. Solder - The average Rosin Core Solder will do, get your self 1.0mm solder, any thicker and it will apply to heavily. Circuit Board Cleaning Solution/WD40 This solvent is used to clean the motherboard, and I will clarify its uses throughout this book. WD40 is more readily available to purchase and can suffice. Again, I will also explain how to properly use WD40 to clean components/remove flux and so forth. Multi-meter - This can be bought at your local Home Improvement store, and you will find a wide variety of quality choices. For a beginner, it is ok to purchase the cheapest Multi-meter to learn its uses and familiarize yourself with it. Heat Gun The better the quality the better the final results of your repairs will be. On average, you want to use at least a heat gun with switchable settings… One that will produce temperature of 700 to 800 degrees. I use a RYOBI heat gun, 120v, 11a, Temp: 200-1100 degrees Farenheit. Heat Gun Add On Tips -

You will find for sale on Ebay or the Web, tips for the heat gun… these are the same or similar to the tips used in professional Rework stations (I’ll explain what a Rework Station is later in the book). There are a lot of different tips you can buy and a lot of different sizes to choose from. You will buy these according to your specific needs. I personally use the Cone telescoping tips, and the Square GPU Covering tips.
