Keyboard Replacement Instructions

I am looking for instructions on how to replace the keyboard on my S10-3T. Particularly disconnecting and reconnecting the connector. I can't find anything in a forum search, and I can't find a hardware maintenance manual.
Any assistance appreciated, thanks.

Keyboard replacement instructions for Pavilion DV-6 1030us

Dear Tecchies,
Thanks in advance for your help! I need some good, complete instructions for replacing the keyboard on my HP Pavilion DV-6 1030us; including all screws needing removed, etc. I already have the replacement keyboard. All the instructions I've found online appear to be regarding different models, or just pertaining to the DV-6 family in general. I simply need the specifics for my model, 1030us. I know they're not too difficult; I'm an A+ tech, so that does help a bit.
Appreciate your help and any time you spend trying to help me.

This question was solved.

This is the Manual which applies to your model. It applies to the whole dv6-1000 series but it does show how to remove and replace your keyboard.
Manual
76-78 are the key pages. Screws and positions are clearly identified. You do not need to remove the screen. Be careful with the ribbon cables on the switch cover and the keyboard.
Good luck.

Trackpad click bar not working correctly after getting a keyboard replacement.

I just got my whole keyboard replaced two days ago due to a sticking "m" problem on my 2008 macbook pro. They didn't replace my trackpad, but now, it seems that my trackpad clicker will only respond if I apply a lot of pressure to the middle of the upper edge of the bar. If I click anywhere else on the bar, the bar is completely unresponsive. It makes clicking and dragging nearly impossible. I once had this problem when I had a bulging battery, but the battery is fine now. Could something have happened when they replaced the keyboard? It can't be coincidence... Is there a home remedy? I know they will want to replace it if I take it in, and my old maching has been off warranty for a while now.

Either a misalignment or a cable is not properly connected.
Since they just "fixed" the keyboard I'd say take it back as they most likely caused this problem.
If you want to do it yourself, iFixit could be particularly useful:

W530 keyboard replacement?

Hello!
I'm a first time thinkpad user. I received my W530 yesterday, and I am very happy with it. there is one thing with the keyboard though; I picked the wrong layout. Unfortunately I havent got enough money to buy a new backlit keyboard with the US layout (mine right now is NL, dutch). Is there any way I can get the keyboard replaced or send it back to lenovo for a replacement keyboard? This is a real bummer, and a stupid mistake. Typing right now is horrible. I searched across the board, and saw some posts about calling the IBM services and such.
Any tips? Thanks!
(sorry for posting this in the wrong board, if so)
EDIT: If it matters, I can replace the keyboard myself if needed.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

As far as i know, the service department doesn't allow replacement of keyboard based on language preferences. i.e. changing from one language layout to another.
You would have to source the keyboard from elsewhere.

Apple did some amazing work shoe-horning a 5.25" drive in there. The photo below is of a stock Pioneer DVR-106 in the dome.

Your nephew may need to remove the bezel on the drive tray to get it to fit through the slot.

IBook G4 Keyboard Replacement

Does anyone know how much a replacement keyboard will cost for an iBook G4 (14 in)? Also, if someone knows of a site that sells them can I have the link?

Hi there:
Several places (online - search) have iBook G4 14" or 12" - replacement
keyboards; one such place has both the item, their asking price and a
link to supposedly help remove and replace it, here:
"G4 iBook Keyboard Replacement - White Ice - New..."
http://www.powerbookmedic.com/G4-iBook-Keyboard-Replacement---White-Ice---New-p- 16595.html
Companies who sell parts, and also provide repair services may also be
good places to inquire; one such could be wegenermedia.com and they
also have a toll-free number (during regular business hours) & real people.
Good luck & happy computing!

Would a Top Case keyboard replacement for Macbook Unibody A1342 (US version), be compatible w/my Macbook if originally it had a Japanese version?

I bought a Macbook Unibody back in 2010, and until now the system is still working perfectly fine, probably because I keep on updating my software version, currently I am on Mac OS X 10.8.2 (Mountain Lion)...I don't have issues with it.
I bought this Macbook in Japan, the keyboard version is on Japanese (with US alphabets) becaue I was studying Kanji back then, and apparently I am now living here in the Philippines and some of my keyboard keys are lost and they were taken off by my naughty niece (LOL, couldn't blame her though... she's just 2 years old)... now I am looking for a replacement. I couldn't find Japanese version of Top Case replacements here in Manila... now I kinda realized I might as well use a US version moving forward.
Now my question is re: Top Case keyboard replacement for Macbook Unibody A1342 (US version), would it be compatible w/my Macbook if originally it had a Japanese version?
Thanks in advance for all the help & informations. I would really appreciate it before I buy a replacement.
Have a good one guys! ^_^)Y

but it has been dropped a bit.
Translation - It has been dropped multiple times.
All the problems are likely related. Better get it to an Apple service rep and be aware that any warranty does not cover abuse of the product.

Seriously? No one has experienced this issue?
Anyone from HP out there care to help me out?

Keyboard replacment part

I recently purchased a replacement keyboard for my HP DV Series DV6t-3100 laptop... Going through the instructions on the site seemed to replace the keyboard seemed simple enough. But when it came time to sliding the key board ribbon into the slot some how the little black latch broke... It actually seems like there two separate parts (upper and lower) These are just the most fragile of parts but they hold the ribbon in place... Where can I get replacements for something like this? I mean I don't even think they have a part number?
Any help would be greatly appreciated...
Jeff

Hi Jeff,
Welcome to the HP Community. I took a look at the Maintenance and Service guide for your product and it there is no mention of a part number for that piece. You could take it to a local tech and they might have a suggestion for you.

(urgent) Keyboard Replacement

So, after spilling a few drops of tea on my keyboard, it no longer works (for the most part).
Particulars:  - Certain keys do not respond when pressed - If keys do respond, they tend to relate to differing characters (the C key is now my spacebar) - A key may type several characters at a time when only pressed once  I've followed the instructions set out here: http://support.hp.com/gb-en/document/c03738933#AbT0
but none of the methods have resolved the issue.
Questions:
Is there anywhere I can purchase a replacement keyboard (in the UK)? My search results have found little.  Is there any point to replacing the keyboard?

According to the message you have recently posted I would like to confirm that this is a hardware issue and the whole keyboard assembly needs to be replaced. I strongly recommend you to Contact HP Technical Support over the Phone for further assistance to get your Notebook diagnosed and serviced by an authorized HP Certified Engineer You can also Check your warranty Here to verify the warranty status  Hope this helps, for any further queries reply to the post and feel free to join us again  **Click the White Thumbs Up Button on the right to say Thanks**Make it easier for other people to find solutions by marking a Reply 'Accept as Solution' if it solves your problem.

Macbook Pro 13'' late 2011 (A1278) logic board I/O to keyboard replacement

I splashed a cup of coffee on my keyboard last year, the keyboard then became sticky. So I resembled everything and replaced a new topcase.
But after that, the SPACE, DELETE, TAB and SHIFT keys of the new topcase were not function, which bring me a huge inconvenience. Now I have to place a new bluetooth keyboard on top of the laptop like... this:
If some unimportant keys were not function, well, that's Ok for me, but the SPACE key and DELETE key... I'd like to say my keyboard is nothing but decoration on my laptop.
I think the i/o parts which is soldered on the logic board was corroded by coffee. I can see some coffee strain / tiny coffee grain inside it. See, I marked it out in pic below. This i/o part is connected with keybaord.
I have no way to get it out and put a new one on the logic board, there are lots of tiny wires and I have no tools to solder it and I don't know where to get the parts..
So can anyone give me some suggestions? or tell me which company can do this kind of thing in a reasonable price? Thanks! I don't wanna use my laptop in this stupid way.

Seems no one notice this post and nobody has interested.
