Hi, I see how to replace a hinge, but it doesn’t appear that the hinge is broken. It looks like the hinge broke off from the LCD screen. Here is a pic, I hope this works… https://www.dropbox.com/s/2nlkg36332yrxr…
My brother-in-law gave me this to try to fix after my niece with autism was a little rough with it. I was going to order new hinges and the clutch cover part, but I don’t think that will help. The hinge broke off from the screen. I do not know what part that would be and I can’t find a way to replace it. I am guessing that the whole display unit may need replaced. Thanks for any advice or leads.
Hoz, hard to see until it is complete apart. right now it looks like the hinge is broken. I do not think that there is any further damage, but can not validate this until you have it totally apart. This part should fix it. As you can see on the attached image, the hinges are actually mounted further down the line.
Update I still think its a broken hinge. If you follow the line ( I definitely stink at freehand drawing) to the right, you will find the screws that mount the rest of the hinge to the display.
