Introduction

The screen itself is a thin display module that is fastened behind the frame of the upper portion of your laptop. Aside from obvious cracks, symptoms of a bad or damaged screen include the appearance of “dead” pixels, blotches, or a screen that is having trouble reaching its full brightness.

Before using this guide, check the settings on your device for brightness and contrast to see if the image cannot be corrected.

This instruction requires a steady hand and attention to technique. A mistake in this process could result in damage to the screen or wires within your HP Pavilion.

Check to make sure that you have all of the required tools and parts before beginning this guide.

Before you get started, power off the device completely and disconnect the device from any external power source.
