OMG! I'm with everyone here, this is the best tutorial 'EVER', as I desperately need to replace the upper casing of my Lenovo Ideapad 330s, and this video provides the easiest, simplest to follow step-by-step instructions. 11/10
Fantastic tutorial. Changed the keyboard on my wife's Lenovo tonight. Soldering iron was tricky but not impossible. Comp works again after reassemble and power up, and keyboard works great. Many thanks!!!!!
Thank you! this helped me a ton last night. Organizing/labeling all those screws was the key to a quick reassembly. It took me a couple of hours but it was definitely worth it. With the keyboard replacement, ram and hard drive upgrade, it's almost like I have a brand new computer.
thanks for this video, i had the same problem except the keyboard, and i even had the same model of the laptop, and your video really helped me. This was the first time i did something like this, previously i only changed batteries and fans, and thermals pastes, but now this too. Everything went right, and it took me around 1.5 hours. thanks again
Thank you so much. I got a 'cannot connect to keyboard' error in the bios and.. well.. thought it might be a loose cable, and it'd be as easy as popping the back and ressetting it. I was wrong. And I know when I'm out of my depth. Thank you!
Nice tutorial! A close up of the parts especially when reassembling would be helpful. I replaced the keyboard but the touchpad isn't working . cable seems to be in place. Any suggestuons?
Great video tutorial, detailed and accurate. I would like to understand something, where to buy the pins to re-weld the new keyboar on the body of the frame that holds the keyboard and the rest of the components assembled. I am looking everywhere, I don't know the name and I don't know what to look for. Thanks for sharing, God bless you., Videos of this genre are rare.
Great walkthrough. I appreciate the explanations and reasoning for why you are doing what you are doing. Any recommendations on tools to buy? I like your screwdriver set and the magnetic board. Thanks!
If you really are going to be repairing electronics or other small gadgets a lot, we do recommend an IFixIt kit. (Though we have never been sponsored by them) Their kits just seem to have all the little bits that you will need, though you can find other kits out there, the little red kit that was in the comes from Manards. It has 4 Philips, 4 slotted, and 4 Torx bits. This is enough to get you started, but for other devices, such as Apple or Nintendo devices, you won't have all the bits needed. -The Redefined Entertainment Team
The two cables, one black, and the other white, that come from the hinge? They go onto the wireless card the small rectangle card that gets slotted in at the top of the board near the hinge. These cables can be tricky to get to reconnect as they just push down onto little circles. -The Redefined Entertainment Team
Hi. I want to replace my Lenovo Ideapad 330S-15ARR Screen Display. But I wanna make sure the pin's socket to the motherboard is 40. I already know that the pin's socket to the screen is 30. Do you know if those values are right ? I mean, 30 Pin connector = Screen 40 pin connector = Motherboard Btw, nice video.
Thank you! Yes the LCD connector on the motherboard should be 40 pin. This is because it does both the display and the webcam. -The Redefined Entertainment Team
Hey there, great video! Will definitely watch it again as I'm replacing my laptop's palmrest :) I've got one question though: if the palmrest is the faulty part and the keyboard works fine, will it be possible to transfer the keyboard assembly to the new palmrest unit without destroying the keyboard? Thanks in advance
Yes, this same process should totally work for keeping the keyboard intact and replacing the plastic palm rest. In the video I take and replace the keyboard with a different one, but the process of taking it out did not break my keyboard and it shouldn't break anyone yours either. So all you would have to do is the same process but keeping the keyboard and changing the plastic rest piece. Good luck!! -The Redefined Entertainment Team
You can use glue to attach it, but you will want to make sure it bonds to the plastic and the chassis. If it doesn't hold well It shouldn't be too bad as a lot of components are mounted right behind it holding the keys in place. There might just be some unwanted movement of the keys in relation to the plastic shell. This is why melting the plastic back down is the best, because it is part of the chassis. -The Redefined Entertainment Team
Hi! It was an excellent weel explained tutorial, my ideapad 330s 15ikb has some problems with letters G and H (and sometimes ESC), so I think it's time to replace it... My version is No backlit, but when I opened (for a ram upgrade) I saw it has a slot for cable that says (LED) so I assume it supports a backlit keyboard... Another issue I have is that I'm based in Panama (Central America) and I'm thinking now that I have to replace the keyboard, improve the laptop with a backlit AND spanish layout one... Would it works? And main question... Would it fit?
I want to say that it should fit from what I have researched, but things can be slightly different and look almost exactly the same. Though from a manufacturing perspective, it would be the best for them to just be able to change out one part for different regions, rather than more plastic molds or manufacturing processes. -The Redefined Entertainment Team
my ESC and F4 F5 F6 only works 1% of the time if I smash it hard enough, driving me crazy. Just watched this video and it looks impossible for me as I dont have the soldering tool and not sure if I can reassemble it lol
Yes! It does appear that the connector that is needed on the motherboard should be on that model. Just need to get the keyboard with a backlight and it should have a second smaller ribbon cable for the backlight. -The Redefined Entertainment Team
Yes, though Kclegos has been put on the side as the channel has not been getting that many views. Though there may be some more gameplay up soon, because of the winter months ahead and everything that has been happening. -The Redefined Entertainment Team
Okay, nevermore a Lenovo laptop in my life, to replace a keyboard you need literally dismeber it, it is also need melt plastic, it's patently obvious they do it in that way to force the people buying a newone. What a shame!
It is a shame! Its even more a shame when you learn that almost all laptops made today use the exact same method of plastic rivets to hold the keyboard to the chassis. -The Redefined Entertainment Team

awesome step-by-step logical explananation! I need to check if Lcd cable is the issue for a green screen..Keep on teaching like this, Thanks a lot

Thank you. Great video!
Best video ever bro
Thank you!!!! Very helpful, much appreciated :))))
Hi, how do you keep the keyboard in place if you use the same chassis? Don't you need to melt to only replace kb? Thank you for the video.
Following this
What a video thanks man it really helps me
What if I am not changing the chassis? Got stuck in the middle now
So best practice when replacing the keyboard is to replace the palm rest chassis as well?
I backlit keyboard can be installed to all 330s models ?
What are the mini 2 cables next to the battery charger plug? I think I removed them from somewhere but can't figure out where from
The two cables, one black, and the other white, that come from the hinge? They go onto the wireless card the small rectangle card that gets slotted in at the top of the board near the hinge. These cables can be tricky to get to reconnect as they just push down onto little circles.

hi, i have the same laptop that has a nonbacklit keyboard, can i replace my keyboard with a backlit one?

@@RedefinedEntertainment Thanks you so much!
@@alinuxuser42 did you already replaced your palmrest?
Where i can find those parts?. I have ideapad 330s 14inch
How can you attach the keyboard without the protruding plastic rivets of the keyboard shell? Can I use glue?
You can use glue to attach it, but you will want to make sure it bonds to the plastic and the chassis. If it doesn't hold well It shouldn't be too bad as a lot of components are mounted right behind it holding the keys in place.

@@RedefinedEntertainment I used glue stick. Thanks for your tutorial buddy, I learned how to organize it.

Geez, we have the same problem. Sometimes I have to press the letters G and H real hard.
my ESC and F4 F5 F6 only works 1% of the time if I smash it hard enough, driving me crazy. Just watched this video and it looks impossible for me as I dont have the soldering tool and not sure if I can reassemble it lol
Some drops of water dropped on power button on my laptop, and now I can not switch it ON? Can you help me 😔 ?
Ideapad 330.
hello friend, i have an ideapad 330s 15ast do you think you could put a keyboard with backlight?
Yes! It does appear that the connector that is needed on the motherboard should be on that model. Just need to get the keyboard with a backlight and it should have a second smaller ribbon cable for the backlight.

Do you do kclegos still, you haven't uploaded in a while.
Yes, though Kclegos has been put on the side as the channel has not been getting that many views. Though there may be some more gameplay up soon, because of the winter months ahead and everything that has been happening.

WTF are you casually flipping @6:42?! It would help if you actually said what you were flipping, as I have nothing to flip on my board.
Hello Brother.
I want you to place a translation in Spanish or other languages.
you took an arm from Colombia.
Bro this is
Totally bad one. You gotta show us what you're doing real close. Instead of filming from so far
