Laptop hinge replacement is important because it ensures that the display system stays in place without wobbling, moving, or being too tight. A broken hinge will affect the usability of your laptop. This guide will show you how to replace the hinges using the iFixit iOpener tool.

    • Make sure the laptop is powered off and unplug all cables before beginning any repair.

    • Remove eight 3 mm screws from the underside of the case using a T5 Torx screwdriver.

    • The metal case of the XPS 15 9510 is extremely sharp, so be careful not to run your fingers along the edge when disassembling the laptop.

    • Wedge the case apart with a nylon spudger.

    • If the plastic one isn't possible to insert, use the metal spudger to carefully create a small gap first.

    • Slide spudger along each side of the laptop

    Please do not miss this warning of it being sharp...
    After opening a few laptops for my office, I have generally been fine. But after opening my own XPS... I had sliced my finger badly.
