Replacing the Keyboard Assembly

1

While bracing the keyboard assembly upright on its left end, connect

the keyboard cable to the interface connector on the system board.

NOTICE: Position the keyboard/track stick flex cable so it is not pinched

when you replace the keyboard in the bottom case assembly.

2

Insert the metal tabs at the left end of the keyboard under the edge of

the bottom case assembly, and fit the keyboard into place.

3

Check that the keyboard is correctly installed. The keys should be flush

with the left and right surfaces of the palmrest.
