FYI - Jump to 6:50 if you just need to remove the Keyboard of an E7250 as you don't need to remove the 20 odd screws from the back to remove the K/b. Just the 2 screws of the back panel below the battery (to remove the K/b connector) and then turn over to remove the grid and then the 5 screws on the K/b.
lol didn't show screen replacement like I was looking for, but really good job on pointing out the things you need to know to take one of these apart. Clear and to the point
+Mr Hero Thanks for your support . i normally dont show how to replace the screen for any of my video as many people wont use it and take longer plus is more dangerous. if i show how to do it, many wouldnt do it anyways as they would be scared. if your screen is a touch screen it is harder to remove this is also the reason i dont show it since there is 2 type of screens even though they get remove in the same way.
OPEN ME UP True I guess for most people I can see that. I mostly look up videos like this to make sure there is nothing that can be broken easily. The tips you point out are exactly the kind of info I look for (cables to make sure are unplugged, screws pointed out) Keep up the good work
very good and informative video. I own the E7250 with 1080P display and touchscreen. Am looking forward to upgrading the RAM to 16GB. it looks easy and straight forward thanks to you.
@@OpenMeUpTec I still use this laptop until last week Thursday while watching TH-cam videos, plugged to the ac adapter it just powered off by itself and everything shutdown instantly. I have done everything possible and it wont power on. I unplugged to check if the charger was bad but it shows the led on the charger but when plugged to the laptop, the led goes off and the charging indicator the laptop doesn't come on either . Is it the motherboard? Does the motherboard differ according to your configuration that is if I want to get it replaced? I need help. Thanks
to confirm it is the motherboard remove the ram batter and hard drive. it should beep if it does not then the motherboard is probably dead. the motherboard is expensive as it contains the cpu as well therefore i wont recommend you to replace. these dont go for much on ebay. the last one i purchase was a e7240 i5 4300u and it was only $200 AUD second hand. that was a year ago
+G Mart thanks for your support. i apologies i know it is not the same as the other two but it similar in a way. it save me from make a video about the 7270 but if thats a case i will make a separate video
Was not difficult per say - just took way longer than I had planned due to removing every component first, then putting them back in again. Even the heatsink needs removed.
All Dell and HP laptops have removable keyboards. Actually those company products are made by all removable parts unless tablet PC (I'm not sure about what they are doing on tablets PC, So I can't be sure.)
can you tell me how far did you follow the video. at 4.50 in the video where i remove the screw the LCD cable is next to that, can you confirm that is in. if so your next step is to remove the ram and hard drive and turn on your computer to see if there is any signs of life. it should beep or there should be flashing lights
Ending Credits..not credited.. Pink-Finger-Nail more than likely Camera Lady...or sidewalk supervisor .. Always use a towel (lite color) under the laptop little screws will bounce out of site. make a cardboard mockup screw position and pin the screws the correct area. OTHERWISE IT WAS SUPERPER jaq *****+
first thing to do is take out the ram and hard drive then turn it on. if it makes a beeping sound or has a flashing light code thats good. second put the ram back in and the see if it turns on.
i dont remember this having a touch screen version but from my expereince it is always something physical like the cable not been pluged in being the reason why touch doesnt work
I have the Dell e7250 with a vacant wwan card slot. There is no free pair of antenna wires. Can I spice the wires from the wireless card (Wifi)? Which wires would you use? I am thinking of buying a DW5808E.
yes and no.YES you can spice cable but is it hard. the cable is 2 layer cable there is the inner core and outer core. that make it extremely hard to work with. No, it is better and cheaper for you just to buy the cable off ebay for $2 -$5 AUD and rout the cable somewhere in the laptop.

Wait, so I don't get it. This model (the Latitude E7250, that is) is supposed to have a backlit keyboard, yet I didn't see any LEDs or anything that indicates this has a keyboard backlight functionality during your disassembly video. Do you know what the deal with that is?
fn + f10 to turn on back light, at 10.10 if you watched the video you can see there are two cables attach to the keyboard. the black one is the keyboard and the orange brown one is the backlight

i dont think you should get one of these cost too much better off with a cheaper laptop. nothing special about the latitude just it has longer warranty that other laptops.
I've been looking for a long time, and as far as I can tell there's not a lot of cheaper laptops in the 12.5 inch, intel core i5, 8gb RAM range than this one. What would you suggest? Sure, I can buy big screen laptops, but I need something small and portable so 13.3 is the largest I can go.
