I replaced my fan a while back and broke a screw post that I had missed..🤦♂️Unfortunately it was one that held down a hinge. It was fine for a while, then the stress added to the remaining screws broke them as well. Now I'm replacing bottom cover, top cover(keyboard), another fan and upgrading the ram. Without this video I would need to pay someone else who knows how much. But I'll be just under 200 all in. And probably be back up and running in under 1.5 hours thanks to your video. Great video!
I swapped upper (keyboard) and back case with new one due to hinge screw breakage and this video was invaluable. Make sure you document cable routing when you take things apart because they only go back one way. Especially wireless stuff and wires routed below the motherboard. Thanks again for making this in depth video!
Bro, your video aided me in diagnosing my computer issue and finding a solution. Now to order a new DC port and power supply. Twas arching, sparking, and smoking. Thank you for the video.
When I fold the screen the front cover, where is the keyborad, pops out a little bit. May be a screw is lost? Do I need to remove the mother board in order to put a new screw?. Thanks you. Great video.
I want to thank you for such a clear, comprehensive video explaining the teardown of this laptop. I am replacing the keyboard assembly for a 17 by1053dx and this has helped immensely. I have a question: the hinges on my laptop are very stiff and don't move easily. Can you tell me how I can adjust them? Thank you.
CMOS Battery change works and is easy, but this doesn't help BIOS Problems. Since it has no own Battery, i haven't found it on the Mainboard yet. Anyway maybe first a BIOS Update and HP Diagnose Tool may help better.
Great video, thanks. I was struggling until I saw the hidden screws under the rubber strips ;-( Now I need to decide to fix the hinge screws, find a replacement keyboard/trackpad or scrap it... Mine is a model 17-by2003ca. Similar case with additional SATA drive.
The model for my computer is HP 17-ca1013no but the screw locations look very similar as in the video, so I will keep this video in case I need some day to do any upgrades or anything for it. I have not yet checked if my computer also has a similar SSD drive, but will do it later.
I have a HP 17-by4061nr and need to add 2nd SSD in the bay. But I can't find the right enclosure to fit in the bay. It's seems to be a plastic popin kit. Do you know where to find it?
Kinda stupid question, and i don't sure if i get the answer, but whatever. I want to replace top cover and i bought it already, can i just move the keyboard from my old top cover or not?
No breakdown of the top lid? These units are a very simple teardown so I kind of expected to see the teardown of the top lid and lcd because these hp's tend to have hinge issues where the hinges break away from the bottom case or top lid causing opening/closing issues as well as breakage of the lcd, cables, etc.
Yes, but the backlight feature MUST be selected with the correct keyboard as it is integrated into that case. A non lighted backlight case will not work with lighted motherboard.
I had to take mine apart (17t-by300) to fix a hinge. When I put it back together everything works except the battery. It says “battery not detected”. I have to plug it in to use it. Why is this? I put the battery back in after the repair. Also, the clock is about 30 minutes behind.
Hi, is this video also applicable to 17-cp0009na and 17-cn0041na models HP currently sell? Is RAM upgradable on both of these models? I don't know how to tell. Thanks for your help :-)
i have the same laptop and it fell off my desk, now it keeps restarting after 3 seconds of pressing the button, i checked the ram, ssd and hdd, I don't know what the issue is, can someone help?

I need to replace my keyboard on a HP 17 and your video is SUPER helpful. Thank you so much for making this video!
Great video, I was able to save myself $800-$1200. I followed the video step by step and replaced a broken fan. Thanks, keep up the good work!!!!
Great video. My hinges broke. I bought the keypad, palm rest on ebay, and because of your video I believe I can make the repairThanks!
Bro, your video aided me in diagnosing my computer issue and finding a solution. Now to order a new DC port and power supply. Twas arching, sparking, and smoking. Thank you for the video.
Super helpful. I have to replace the "top cover" which is the keyboard/palm rest that everything mounts onto and this has really helped. Thank you.
You are welcome. Glad the video helped.
Beautiful step by step description. Thank you
Thanks for the video. I was unsure ow to separate the back cover from the rest of the computer but your video helped me figure it out.
When I fold the screen the front cover, where is the keyborad, pops out a little bit. May be a screw is lost? Do I need to remove the mother board in order to put a new screw?. Thanks you. Great video.
Just wanted to drop my thanks for this, perfect job.

did the plastic on the keyborad break thats what happened to me... i don't know if you can adjust the hinges
I'm here looking for the CMOS battery due to bios issue. I'm hoping your suggestion of unplugging the battery works.
I came here for CR2032 battery also. Since there isn’t one. Did your battery issue fix?? Please let me know

Can you give some idea of what part of the hinge breaks and how to replace/repair it? Mine is a 17-by2075cl and broke on the right side. Thanks!
Great video, thanks. I was struggling until I saw the hidden screws under the rubber strips ;-( Now I need to decide to fix the hinge screws, find a replacement keyboard/trackpad or scrap it... Mine is a model 17-by2003ca. Similar case with additional SATA drive.
Thank you so much. I feel confident to try this myself.
The video was well done and very interesting and helpful. Thank you.

Thank you for the video. is it possible to unplug the touchscreen or is it part of the 30 pin display plug?
Part of. You can disable touch in Device Manager
Great job ! That candy must be brain food. Where can I get some?
I cannot seem to find the link in the description for the cloning of solid-state drives.
This was very helpful. Thanks!!
Glad it was helpful!
Is it possible to plug an ssd as a second drive into the mother board? If yes, where would you do that. Thanks!
Very helpful for a HP i7-by1033dx hard drive upgrade and battery swap.
Kinda stupid question, and i don't sure if i get the answer, but whatever. I want to replace top cover and i bought it already, can i just move the keyboard from my old top cover or not?
Please let me know why the charger end that goes in the computer it get hot right when it goes in the computer hp 17. Exactly

This video was really helpful :)
Hello i would like to know if the touch pad is replaceable
No, and you have to be specific, either lighted or not when ordering your keyboard. Those two do not interchange.
thank you with your help it was an easy fix ! :)
Does anyone know the dimensions of the 2.5" drive bay please?
Great video! Thank you very much. I was able to fix my HP with some broken hinges.
You are welcome. Glad the video helped.
Can a keyboard & that has backlight work with this system
Yes, but the backlight feature MUST be selected with the correct keyboard as it is integrated into that case. A non lighted backlight case will not work with lighted motherboard.
is there a second slot for m.2 drive?

Yes. More or less the same concept
Excellent
Does this support 32 Gb of ram? I ordered 2x16 but now I'm 2nd guessing myself

Its possible add an 500 gb hdd??
Yes of course
I get 3 white flashes on power side and laptop won’t turn on. All cables connected properly
i have the same laptop and it fell off my desk, now it keeps restarting after 3 seconds of pressing the button, i checked the ram, ssd and hdd, I don't know what the issue is, can someone help?
Only helps for HP model 17-B.
The 17-E, X or Z are completely different, so maybe the title should be changed.
