Microsoft Surface Pro Gen 1: 拆卸硬盘

Sun, 12 Apr 2026 08:31:48 -0700

一开始只是风扇有噪音，后来噪音很大了，有时候会发展成啸叫。
我自己买了风扇准备更换，拆除的时候不小心把屏幕拆裂了，所以我现在只想把硬盘拿出来当一个存储设备用，其它配件就不要了。

Microsoft Surface: charger light flashes and surface wont charge

Sun, 01 Feb 2026 05:54:22 -0700

I was using my surface and it got the low battery notification so I went to get a charger and when I plugged it in the light on the charger flickered and surface didn't charge. The problem isn't the charger (I tested it at Microsoft store). I then ordered a new power plug and opened surface and installed the new one. When I tested it again, it still didn't work. I have tried disconnecting the battery, still nothing. If anyone has any idea what the problem could be, help would be very much appreciated.

Microsoft Surface 2: (Plugged in, Not Charging) Error. Help?

Tue, 28 Nov 2023 06:24:39 -0700

I just bought a surface 2 last night and there is an issue, I plug in the power cable, but when I see the battery indicator, it shows "plugged in, not charging". The tablet turns off if I unplug the power cable..

I've tried the following workarounds that I found online:

1) shut down the tablet, unplug the power cable and leave it for few minutes, plug in back the power cable and let it charge for few minutes, turn it on.

2) shut down the tablet, press volume up + power button for 10 seconds, leave it charging for few minutes, turn it on.

3) Performed a full system recovery.

But sadly these didn't help. I would like to ask is there any other workaround I can try?

I have tried multiple outlets as well as multiple chargers.

Thank you.

It has been on the charger for two whole days, and now it won't turn back on. Is it because it isn't charging, or because it's completely broken?

I recently took apart my Surface pro 3 because my digitizer stopped working because of a small drop it had. I was looking online and couldn't find a replacement digitizer/LCD screen combo for my version (v1.1). I was wondering if it would be possible to use other digitizer versions like a v.5 and if it would still work.

Microsoft Surface Pro 4: Surface Pro 4 won't turn on at all after battery replacement

Fri, 02 Aug 2024 18:48:33 -0700

Hey! So I followed the guide here on iFixit to replace my battery. Unfortunately now my Surface Pro 4 won’t turn on at all (unplugged or plugged in). Nothing happens, not even the fan goes on.

I can’t really figure out what the problem might be. Maybe someone can give me a clue where to look next or what it might be?

A few more notes:

When I tore off the screen I broke one of the three antennas at the top, but I would guess this wouldn’t cause this problem.
When I first tried to turn it on, I forgot to connect the fan back to the mainboard. I fixed that very shortly after.
After it didn’t work the first time, I removed the battery again and put it back in, but that didn’t help either.

I hope that is enough information!

Microsoft Surface Pro 4: After replacing sr pro 4 LCD,won't turn on battery mode unless plug it

Sat, 02 Aug 2025 11:19:12 -0700

After replacing the surface pro 4 LCD, it won't turn on the battery mode unless i plug it with the charger

After i had replaced a surface pro 4 LCD, won't turn on battery mode unless plug it.

Before taking off the broken screen the pro was working good just the screen was broken, so i turned it off then started working on it. after taking off the old broken screen. i tried to connect the new LCD on to test it but no response at all.

it does only work when i plug it in the charger and it does show me that the battery is 100% full on the screen?

also i did put a piece of paper between the connects part for the battery and the motherboard. it does show me an X on the battery icon on the screen when i turn it on

but i couldn't resolve the problem for 1 week now and i have been searching online but no one has had these issues before.

so how can ifixit ??
