The first thing is to remove the battery as you would in any repair of a laptop. This repair was done by Perry's Computer Repair in Ocean View, DE.

This repair was done because water was spilled on the laptop and it did not boot. Best guess was that the system board was not functioning. Picture shows system board which is our objective to replace.

its easy to change a keyboard that you can access from the outside.But how do you replace a keyboard that’s inside the laptop?
Like the dell inspiron 17 5000 5770. You have to take apart the laptop to get to the palmrest , were the keyboard is. The keyboard and the plate that is over it , is held by some plastic pins that go through the keyboard and plate. Those plastic pins have a sort of plastic ring (o shape) that you put on the pins to hold the keyboard. And no ,its not in your service manual . Anybody have replaced these kind of keyboards. Theres got to be a way , because , the keyboards are sold in many places. This is the puzzle. Know how?
