In reply to Daniel Cantu. @ Daniel Cantu,

The screen was not working prior to the disassembly.

Did you test the laptop with the external monitor? Does external video work at all?

Thanks for the instructions. I used the bottom case replacement guide that you published and replaced it because the hinges were broken. I looked at this guide and was wondering if you could point me in the direction of checking why the screen no longer works. I looked at the wiring inside the case and inside the screen- neither looked damaged from what I could tell. The screen was not working prior to the disassembly. Thanks in advance.

I don’t know your name, but thanks a lot for this guide. If i donate, how is my money distributed? Does it all go to the author, or is it somehow distributed among several parties?

I have an ASUS K52 that was recently repaired at a laptop shop, but it does not go into sleep mode when I close the lid. After hearing of a magnet I stopped by and explained that this is controlled by a magnet, but he swears there is no such thing and will not listen to me. Surely a 25 year vet in the service has worked on a laptop where there is a magnet that controls the sleep/close lid function. He wants me to prove it. Problem is, I can’t find the K52 layout, and after talking with ASUSTek, they will not let me know WHERE or WHAT I am looking for in this thing. Seeing your K53 disassembly gives me hope, can you provide a picture of what/where the magnet is so that I can finally fix my ASUS K52JT laptop? Please email me if you need something else from me. Thank you for your time.
