In reply to Ad. OH! Sorry I think I found it- Step 18, looks like its actually embedded on the back of the motherboard! If anyone needs to know the location of the power button in the future at least we know!

Hey!
I’m converting my AE-000 into a mini pc using a 3d printed case-
My display is shot, keyboard has failed keys and battery is toast already so I’m not willing to spend the almost $400 i need to replace them all since I only bought the thing for like $700, 6+ years ago.
I’m just wondering if the power button is wired via the keyboard cable- if so has anyone figured out the pin out for it?
If not, is it that two pin port next to the display port in step15?

To replace the palmrest/keyboard assembly, do I have to follow your disassembly guide starting from the bottom and removing everything as shown here, or is there a way to simply remove the palmrest/keyboard assembly from the top and replace it? I didn’t see where you removed the top, everything seemed to be removed from the bottom and then you got to the keyboard, a bit confused. Also it’s only my “T” key this isn’t very responsive, all my other keys work fine.

In reply to Judy. Judy, it looks like the cooling fan and heatsink is one unit and doesn't open easily. Here's what I suggest. Buy a can of compressed air or use an air-compressor. Spray air inside the fan until all dust is gone. This should be enough to remove most of the dust. I think cleaning the fan with Q-tips and alcohol is an overkill.

IML Tech,

I’m thinking about cleaning my fan as I’ve seen on other videos with other laptops. Although, this model, it seems (according to your pics) that the fan is incased in some plastic holder. The videos I’ve watched the people have used quetips with alcohol to clean the fan. This doesn’t seem easy with this fan. Or do you think it opens as well? Or is it just one unit, and I’m just stuck with it as it is and the best way is just using condensed air (even though I tried that and it didn’t improve much).

In reply to Judy. @ Judy, this is my client's computer. I'm not sure where where he bough it but it looks like there are many different options on the internet.

Hi, I am curious, where did you get that skin? It looks nice and my laptops silver/chrome like color is wearing out by my wrists and looking really bad. Anyway, I used this, it was great! You’re the only person that has instructions on opening up this model! You’re awesome.
