Confidently Restore Your Lenovo Yoga C930-13IKB Display

Is your Lenovo Yoga C930-13IKB screen acting up, from a cracked screen to flickering or unresponsive pixels? Take a deep breath and proceed with this step-by-step guide on how to replace the display of your Lenovo Yoga C930-13IKB.

Replacing the display may seem daunting at first, but with the right tools, parts, and guidance, even first-time repairers can succeed. Taking on this repair yourself not only saves on expensive professional services but also provides a sense of accomplishment and valuable technical experience.

Safety and Preparation Tips:

  1. Power Off: Shut down the laptop and unplug all power sources.
  2. Anti-Static Workspace: Work on a static-free surface and ground yourself if possible.
  3. Handle with Care: Be gentle with delicate components to avoid damage.
  4. Stay Organized: Use a container to track screws and parts during disassembly.

    • Using a halberd spudger, gently lift up the metal bezel that lines the lower edge of the display.

    • Gently wedge two opening picks underneath the display.

    • Slowly work the opening picks around the display.

    • Add opening picks as needed to keep display separated from the frame.

    • Use caution if dealing with broken glass.

    • The iFixit suction cup tool can be used to add some extra leverage to the mix when removing the display.

    Hi everyone, please be VERY careful on this step. I used the opening picks as depicted, and I ended up cracking my screen and will have to buy another one. The glass is very fragile. I also believe that this guide is potentially missing a step. Just as the battery has double-sided adhesive tape holding it in place, the touchscreen display also has that tape behind it as well. If you look closely at where both the opening picks are in the first picture on the guide, you will see little white tabs that help pull out the tape before taking the screen off. I don't know if this contributed to me breaking my screen, but I thought I would leave a warning so no one else forgets to remove the tape beforehand just in case. Look up "Lenovo Yoga C930 LCD Removal Tips" uploaded by PC 911 Computer & Cell Phone Repair on Youtube to get a better look at the adhesive tabs. Happy fixing everyone.

The screen is glued with iphone battery tape so you have to pull the white tabs at the bottom of the screen to release the tape as like almost all the last generation screens.
