I just saw something about resetting an inverter with a rare earth magnet. Can you explain that to me? I have a black screen, no image visable, laptop works with an external monitor. What can I try before buying parts? Thanks for any help,,

In reply to Jonny. @ Jonny, Possible connection related issue. Try reseting the video cable on the back of the new screen and test again. If the problem still there, try connecting the damaged screen back to the laptop again. If the cracked screen still works fine but the new one shows just gray screen, it's either defective or not compatible screen.

Hello, I fitted a new screen to my Vostro 1500 as per the instructions above, but when I turn on the laptop, the screen lights up a dim grey colour, and after about 30 seconds the screen goes blank?

The original screen was cracked at the corner, but was still working before I fitted this onn.

Hi I have a Dell Vostro 1520. The screen goes dark but I can still see my info in the back ground. I found out from your web site I need an inverter. Do you have any in stock.?

In reply to Daniel. @ Daniel,

The hinges on my Dell Vostro broke, and I need to replace them. Can you point me to where I can see how to replace my hinges with a new set.

Replacing hinges on Dell Vostro 1500 should be very difficult. 1. Remove the screen bezel as it shown in this guide. STEPS 1-2. 2. Remove the keyboard cover. Here's an example. Take a look at the STEP 8. After you remove the screen bezel and keyboard cover you should be able to access and replace damaged hinges.

I’m working on a Vostro 1500. There’s something else holding the bezel on the bottom. If I pry any harder on it it’s going to break the bezel. There’s some kind of fastener on both sides of the bottom of the bezel. I’ll post again when I find the fasteners. I’ve got three sides of the bezel loose, but there are additional fasteners somewhere on the bottom.
