Where is the switch located that turns the screen on and off when you open/close the lid? I have replaced damaged LCD cable and tried a new screen but still no image at all on screen. Suddenly thought about this switch but donâ€t know where it is!

Most likely this laptop has a magnetic lid close switch - a small magnet (located somewhere inside the display) activates the switch (located somewhere inside the laptop body) when the laptop is closed. Can you get image on the external monitor? Maybe there is nothing wrong with the screen and you have a failed motherboard. Make sure the video cable connector properly.

I neglected to notice how the cables were routed around the hinges. This includes the video cable, webcam cable, and the antenna cables. Could you post pictures of how these cables are routed?

I don't have a close up picture of these cable. Not sure why you are experiencing a problem. Probably wires have some memory and it's shouldn't be very difficult to figure out how to route them. Take a look at this page: http://support.dell.com/support/edocs/systems/ins1750/en/sm/display.htm#wp1109848 Not sure if it helps. Pics are pretty small.

I was going to modify my wireless card’s antenna so that in the case that i need or want to I could add an external antenna for better range. However, when i took the lid off of the laptop base, and the cables out of the hinges, I neglected to notice how the cables were routed around the hinges. This includes the video cable, webcam cable, and the antenna cables. Could you post pictures of how these cables are routed? I’ve searched the web, tried many times to get them back to the way I think they should go, but nothing I try looks like it did before. If you could, thanks. If not I’ll keep trying. Thanks.

The LCD cable on my Dell 1750 laptop was broken by the lid hinge. Can someone tell me how to replace t?

Here's Dellâ„¢ Inspironâ„¢ 17 Service Manual. The manual explains how to remove the palmrest assembly and access the video cable. Basically you'll have to remove the palmrest assembly and disassemble the display panel in order to access and replace the video cable. Hope it helps.
