Replace Screen on Delll Inspiron 15-3521

Crystal clear instructions! Thanks so much! It took me 15 minutes and I'm looking at my repaired screen as I write!

Hey ratholeproductions, I watched several how-to videos on how to swap out a laptop screen on the Dell Inspiron 15-3537/3521/5537/5521 model. Yours was by far the clearest in terms of "how-to", showing the process clearly step by step. I followed it step by step to success. The guitar pick tip for getting the bezel off was really cool. I borrowed a pick from my neighbor. So, your process saved me at least $230, maybe $280, on having it fixed at a repair shop. That kind of expense would have made me want to just buy a new computer, because my Dell Inspiron is five years old, though it seems to have no other problems just now. So, Thank you for forestalling my having to spend about $500 or $600 on a new one, when all I do is check email and browse the internet and word processing. Again, my gratitude!

Thank you. The instructions on the Dell site have you taking the entire laptop apart. This worked. My model is different because I have a touch screen. There's no bezel. It's actually rubber trim going around the edge of the touchscreen. Some of mine crumbled off because the laptop is 9 years old. Be careful because there's wires connecting to the touch screen for the camera and the screen. The LCD screen has 2 tabs on top and 2 tabs on bottom with two holes on each tab. They connect to the laptop with black screws. Don't undo any silver screws! Mine connected via the inside holes of the tabs. This video shows the outside holes. The hardest part is the hinge covers. I couldn't figure it out and ended up breaking mine but I found some on eBay for $7. Be careful with the screwdriver on that because there are wires going through the hinges on both sides. But other than that it's fixed my laptop. No more pink lines and half-frozen screen. Great video!

Thanks a lot Sir, people like you prevent big companies to rip us off. 200$ here to change the screen. For something that takes 10 mins and cost 60$ tops for a new LCD. Thanks again Sir.

Excellent video. I had a bit of trouble getting the hinge covers back in, until I figured I was putting them in upside-down. Saved me a couple hundred dollars, thank you.

I appreciate that you showed what the screen looked like. My daughter's Inspiron 15 3521 is very similar looking. Also I will be using this video as my tutorial once I get a replacement screen. I watched several videos, some seemed too "forced" and others were playing it too safe by basically disassembling everything. Thank you for finding that middle ground.

I've never written a review on anything, I'd like to say thank you for uploading this video. I was able to get my pc back up and running, after my daughter broke the screen. Thank you!!!

[@corydumais3014]

Much thanks! Had my fingers crossed when I first fired it up because I wasn't sure if it was the screen or some other issue, but it works perfectly now, woo!

Awesome video. Everything is step by step and it's easy to follow. I was nervous trying to fix my laptop screen but this video helped tons!

[@patmole4972]

Thank you so much , fitted a new screen with no problems thanks to your instructions. :)

[@philsimmer]

Great instructions. Piece of cake. My guitar picks are too flimsy, so I improvised with the back side of a carpet knife to separate the bezel. Overall, very simple repair and well worth the $40 screen. Thanks for the video!

[@CoasterMan13Official]

I have one of these. My mom bought it in 2013 for $1200 because her first computer, a Dell inspiron 1545, had stopped working, and needed one for college at the time. She stopped using it after I screwed up her windows installation (I was young at the time.) I'm using it now for video editing and various other tasks.

[@priell3]

Great video. Easier than other instructions I've seen on the web. A guy at work just brought me the same model laptop with a shattered LCD.

[@1Reesiegirl]

Wow!! Even easier than the last video I watched!! Thank you so much for this video...this is my exact model and you just saved me $258 being that Dell doesn't cover this in the warranty if you purchase THEIR PRODUCT from a third party.

[@Zenthorian1]

Hi mate, is this the same process for the touch screen versions? Thanks

[@quizo1]

Absolutely excellent video. Saved me loads of money, I'm sure. Very easy to follow. Thanks!

[@ShawkatZaman]

Thanks for the video.

[@sabeelmustafa]

can u please tell

[@TheHeyhellohey]

Do I have to put it back altogether for the LCD to kick in? Because I tried it turning it on (not altogether) and the screen is dim.

[@CJo582]

Hi, I recently cracked my screen, and I just used these instructions to replace it (THANK YOU!!!). I now hear the 8 beeps upon start up. I read that this means there's a display issue. I double checked that I connected the new screen. Do you have any troubleshooting advice?
