Replacing LCD screen on Dell Inspiron 15 5565 5567 laptop.

In this tutorial I show how to replace the LCD screen on a Dell Inspiron 15 5565 5567 (model P66F) laptop. It’s likely you can use this tutorial for some other models in the Dell Inspiron 15 5000 series computer line.

It’s much easier to remove the screen when the display panel separated from the top case as shown on the following picture. It’s hard to remove the screen bezel (though it’s possible) with the display panel still installed. In my previous tutorial I explained how to remove the display (follow steps 14-19).

For this disassembly you will need the following repair tools: Phillips #1 screwdriver and case opener tool.

Remove display panel from the laptop.
