I am sure that when dismantling the laptop, you have accidentally removed the tape sticked on the IB inverter board.
The IB is usually laid inside a transparent cubic plastic tube located under screen. Please take the IB out of the tube and wrap it with transparent sellotape around it as spiral shape from head to end till IB is fully wrapped. Remember not to remove any sellotape sticked on mainboard. Thank you for those links! Could be memory related problem. Try that first. Recently there was an spark from the cooling vent area and it followed bit of smoke. After that the cooling fan stopped working.
I also realized that there is a thin strip of line on my display. However, still the laptop is working. That is beyond my affordability. Could anyone suggest me what might be wrong with the laptop? Is it enough just replace the fan or the whole motherboard has to be replaced?
I cannot tell without looking at the laptop. From your description I assume that you have a fried component on the motherboard and replacing the cooling fan will not help. Dear cj, I was also fearing that a component on the mother board is fried. However, when I followed your clues and checked both the motherboard and cooling fan area, I found out something interesting. Actually the smoke was coming from the dust gathered in the cooling fan area and I am still not sure about the sparks.
Anyway, after cleaning the 1 inch thik layer of dust from the vent area everything is back to normal. Even the display is ok. Is there a method of reattaching it, or should I find a replacement keyboard? I discovered one of my RAM chips was bad, indeed. On one occasion, I noticed the timer had not progressed and the progress bar looked erratic but working. I lifted the laptop with my right hand grasping the right side of the keyboard. The timer had jumped to its correct time and the progress bar displayed as expected.
I put the laptop down and the timer froze. The progress bar went wonky again. I was thinking of putting rubber padding underneath the mainboard where the ATI chip is located.
I was also thinking about taking the fan and heatsink off and putting one or even two thin copper or aluminum squares with thermal grease between the ATI chip and the heatsink. I have tried removed the cmos battery bur it does not help. Anyone has another way to bypass it? I got problem with my Sony laptop VGN cr, no led, no power at all, I think something goes wrong with power supply.
Can some one tell me where to buy sony power supply or where to down load diagram of sony vgn cr??? Tks a lot!!!! Hi, can any one show me where to download diagram for power supply of sony vgn cr????? Many thanks!! Actually both the speakers are not working. External speakers and headphones are working properly while connecting them in it. But I dont know, what is the problem in the internal speaker? Should I reinstall the driver? Kindly, assit me to fix this problem. Neither the modem nor the LAN ethernet port seem to be detected by the operating system — Vista Business.
BIOS options seem to be extremely limited. How do I enable the modem or LAN ports? Could be software related problem. Have you tried reinstalling device drivers for the modem and LAN? If still no help, most likely you have a faulty motherboard and it has to be replaced. If anyone can help, I would really appreciate it. Thank you. Thanks for the quick response. There are only 2 screws on top and the bottom seems to be attached to the hinge. I tried opening it up but could only get it to open halfway.
Sir i am having a sony laptop VGN-FE41Z of which i am looking for a complete service manual can you provide me with the same please. The wire dose not look like a copper one. Inside the insulation looks like a string. What can I do to fix my blunder? Okay I have a Sony Vaio laptop at work I need to replace the keyboard on. No one seems to be able to tell me how to dismantle to replace this part in the model that I have.
Test the power adapter first. Make sure the laptop is getting power from the wall. I have barely used it and left it in pristine condition. If I move the top of the laptop toward me, sometimes the image comes back to normal. If I move it backward, then the image freezes and goes white again.
External monitor works fine. I opened the top and bottom of the laptop, and checked the connection on both sides, it seems fine. Is it possible that the cable is getting squished in the hinge.. Lately I have been using the laptop without the LCD bezel, and I removed the left speaker to give the cable more breathing room.
I think this is ridiculous! Have you ever seen something like this? Your description sounds like a problem with the LCD screen. Apparently there is a bad solder joint somewhere on the LCD controller and it fails intermittently.
It depends on what kind of noise you have. In some cases cleaning the fan will help. Can you or anyone post it? FWIW the one listed here is the previous series. Hey Gecko I have the same problem with the wireless switch on a vaio FE41m did you managed to solve the problem?? Please help!!! I had the same problem with my fan. I suggest you clean it using cotton buds soaked in soapy water then lubricate the fan bearing with castor oil using an injection needle.
It recently stopped functioning. When I power the unit on it sounds like it is starting normally. Where do I need to start? Charlie Blair, Could be memory failure.
Try reconnecting memory modules, make sure they make good connection with the slots. Try removing memory modules one by one. Test the laptop with each module separately. One of the modules could be bad and the laptop will start when the bad module is removed. I have sony vaio laptop, buy from Spain, malaga. When I push the power button the power led comes on and stays on for just a few seconds and turns off.
Is this a power problem or something else? I need help finding a part to buy and replacing the DC jack. What could this be. Thanks for any help you can give me. Note: I already replace my Hardisk with the new one, cause i assume there a problem with my old hardisk, but it not resolve that problem.
Yesterday, I was watching a video online and my computer was on the charger. Then, all of a sudden, the computer shut down, and made a crashing type of sound, which worried me. Then, after A minute, I pressed the power button to on the computer and the power was not working, meaning the computer just does not turn on , and I tried so hard to turn it on, but it just does not.
Can you tell me what the problem might be as to why my laptop just does not turn on? Are there any solutions? I mean I had files in my computer and I am just so worried about it. Thanks so much! Good Luck. Has anyone done this before? Can you help? Has anyone tried this? I am looking for Scemetic diagram of the mother board.
I want to repair it. Because I have a power problem. It does not start. Looking for your help. Hey all, i hav sony vaio VGN-s series with 1. When i slapped it little, it starts working… and after few days… it power on but nothing on screen….. Nice resource! Need to swap hard drive. Could be memory failure. Try replacing the memory module with a new one and test the laptop again. Do you have two memory modules in your laptop? Try removing them one by one. If one of the modules is bad, the laptop will start properly when the bad module is removed.
Any one to help?? Well ……. I guess that depends on the size of your lawn. But yeah, thanks guys. I can take care of my lawn myself, but a couple of beers sounds great. It is fantastic and hope it will remain up to date. It saves alot of money to those who wants to do the job own their own. Tried your guide for VGN-N but there still seems to be something holding the keyboard as I am unable to release the 5 tabs. So the trick is to keep prising the keyboard at the end where the 3 screws were and it will eventually unstick.
This is Khondker from Bangladesh. It was working fine for 4 months. But now a problem has appeared. The problem is — When I switch on or power my laptop. It starts. The power indicator light remains green. But my Lcd screen appears black. I reinstalled my system, but no progress. At the time of booting, my screen shows light for 1 second, after that it remains black.
If I plug other monitor it shows the screen there properly. But my laptop screen remains black. The bottom panel was easy enough to remove, but that only gets me access to the RAM and the Wireless card. Go to the device manager and find the webcam in there. Right click on the webcam and uninstall the driver.
Now reboot the laptop and let it detect the webcam and reinstall the drivers. This might help. I have a sony laptop pcg-9s1p, recently it bootup and go to the windows screen them shut down. What wrong with it. Can anyone help me?
Please can someone help me? It would be of great help, please and thanks!!! Hi, Thank you for all of your great efforts to prepare this web site. I am not a technican just an enthusiast replaced the screen in 1 hour without any rush. Can anyone tell me how to open the LCD screen and what the price of it. What great links for the sony service manuals. Thanks again for all your work! I want detailed service manual for laptop motherboard.
Can someone tell me where can I find one. Sony no longer support this model. All drivers updated. Any ideas or suggestions? Take a look at the screen bezel and somewhere in the lower left or right corner find the laptop model number. By the way, is the laptop still bootable? Does anybody know where I can find one? Hi I have a Sony Vaio from about 9 months now I have a problem model is PCG-3J1L charger works just does not want to transfer to the battery when the charger cord removed immediately otherwise dim goes perfectly Can anybody help or recommend the service.
PS The laptop was not bought from Bulgaria there is no guarantee! Thank you in advance! I believe all Sony laptops sold with at least 1 year warranty. There must be some kind of warranty even in Bulgaria. Have you tried calling the official service center? It worked perfectly fot 2 weeks, and then vertical red stripes appeared on the screen. My local technician said it was impossible to repair: something to do with a tfs? Searching on the internet, I found that there is a recurrent grapic card problem on vaio fz series.
Is it possible to fix this problem? I have looked all over for problems, and apparently Vaios have a lot of problems related to the trackpad. Maybe the trackpad simply disabled? Also take a look at the trackpad software installed on your laptop. The problem is that when I power up with or without battery the screen displays Vaio logo momentarily and ever so quickly fades away.
I cannot even get output to an external monitor to view bios or the os. Take a closer look at the laptop screen after it fades away. Can you see a very faint image?
If yes, try replacing the inverter board. I am only abel to see something if I set ON but the BIOS come out 2 times and all strange letters while in the external monitor it is showed perfect. Thanks for this interesting page. I need to change the keyboard and I need instructions on how to do this. I would, however, prefer a few more words about the difficulty of particular tasks. OK, so I am a noob. Just thinking my comment might help someone. I got my Sony laptop blown up last night due to incorrect adapter.
Now that its blown id like to fix it myself and want to know how to go about doing it. Toward the right half of the screen it appears to be fine. I am not sure if it is the screen or an inverter or something else. I would really appreciate some guidance. The screen backlight still works, it means the inverter board works properly.
Does it look something like this? This is LCD screen failure. My keyboard is nonfunctional after spoiling some water across it:. Does anyone know of a quick fix?? When you say the screen goes blank, does it mean the backlight still there but there is no image? Test your laptop with an external monitor. Can you get image on the external monitor? Use an external USB mouse.
Right click on the touchpad and uninstall it. Restart the laptop and let it re-detect the touchpad. I have never been able to plug to an external monitor. Hi guys, I have a sony vaio vgn-avp which is now 6 or 7 years old. Although the laptop is old, whenever I go to my mothers house I still use it, doing so now ubuntu and xp. The laptop currently has 1. So my question if someone can help me is, is it hard to upgrade all the hardware inside and keep at least the screen?
Laptops are not very upgradeable. There are not many parts you can upgrade, except memory, hard drive and in some cases CPU. This requires OS reinstall or cloning. Hi , fantastic job, great selection of manuals, I am looking for 1 in specific, Sony Vaio VGN Z11, if anyone can help with this, please send me a link. Hi , fantastic job, great selection of manuals, I am looking for 1 in specific, Sony Vaio PCG — KM, if anyone can help with this, please send me a link.
Both the keyboard and touchpad have stopped working, although F2 and F8 work when booting. New hard drive fitted with fresh install, this did not help. Not a very common model apparently. Might as well do an overhaul if I can get the relevant manual. Look for two screws securing the DVD drive on the bottom of the laptop. If you not sure which screws securing the DVD drive, try removing all screws located under the drive.
After that try pulling the DVD drive from the laptop. Before you buy a new screen, you should check connection between the video cable and LCD screen.
Hello again, Also I want add that my laptop is 4 years old. Hope someone can help me. To: peejay I just took apart my Vaio, there is a line running from where the battery plugs in to where my biometric scanner and wireless toggle is located, perhaps it is broken? The Palm top screws have come out and the manual says requirement of B3 screws. Where do I buy them from. I checked with a service center close to my place but they seem to be more focused on how much they can fleece me.
They suggested the computer would need repair in addition to cleaning, as soon as I mentioned red ants. Plus I cannot visit that city for another three weeks. Any suggestion as to what I can do to prevent further damage till I can get to a service center? I live in a not so well-connected town in India. Can anyone help me out here? I thought it was overheated but did not want to include more.
When you make a power cable to the shutter release button lamp flashes. Do you have any idea where is the problem. I have a Sony Vaio pcgL, also known as a vpcecx. I was dumb and took it on a camping trip over a very rough road. It did not like that. Now it GPFs regularly. A memory diagnostic did not turn up anything with the RAM.
I want to disassemble it to see if there is something that jarred loose, etc. I am looking for a guide to disassemble the body of the sucker.
It is not at all obvious. Even a guide to replacing the keyboard would be a help, as that would get me into the case. There are no obvious tabs, screws, etc. Any help appreciated. I purchased a new plastic for the bottom and would feel much better about the repair if I had a manual. Thanks, Mike. Can you test your laptop with an external monitor? If external video works fine and the problem appears only on the laptop screen, it could be one of the following: 1.
Bad connection between the video cable and LCD screen or motherboard. Reseating connections might help. LCD screen failure. Bad video cable. It just happened to me that today morning i folder my laptop in normal way without shut down just like sleep mode.
I usually do this from past 1 year or so. Surprise that, when i came and try to start my laptop, i see that alomost half of my screen Bottom went white.. Now i have no idea what went wrong as i did not do anything with laptop. I even completely restored the laptop with factory settings..
Usually the screen is not totally white.. Can some one pls help me as what could be the problem and laptop dont have warranty anymore. This sounds like a problem with the LCD screen. If you can, try reseating the video cable on the back of the screen first. There should be a different model number for this laptop. Look at the lower right corner of the screen.
What does it say? Look in the lower right corner of the display. Your description is not very clear. If I understand correctly, your laptop turns on but all you getting is a black screen. Can you see any faint image on the screen at all? Can you test your laptop with an external monitor and find out if external video still works?
Maybe this is memory related problem. Thanks in advance! I am needing to replace a dc power cable and plug and need to find instructions for dis and reassembly. I am needing to replace a dc power plug and need to find instructions for disssebbly and reassembly for my PCGL.
I also need the part for the power plug. I just turned it on today and found that when I plug or unplug it the screen flickers and goes black for a bit and then returns to normal. Is this ok? What can I do to fix this? It depends on the way it flickers. Can you exchange it for a new one? Is it still covered by the store warranty usually 2 weeks in the US. Look in the laptop device manager.
If you have a Bluetooth card installed it should appear in the device manager. It will not turn on. I gave the Vaio to someone who said he was sure he knew how to verify if the motherboard was dead or just the power I got back a box of parts and have no idea how to put it back together. Can anyone help locate a new one and email me a how to fix this laptop?
Thanks for this manuals. I have a question. Or which model is dismounted in a similar way? I cannot find them. Is there any repair manual or easy fix to sort this out? Currently order a new daughter card after the audio port started broke down. Hi: Can you please help me? I know this is on my end because all of my friends have no problem with their contacts. For a several years I never had any this kind of problem.
This started about one or two month ago. I lose hope that I ever find a solution. Looking for some answer! I have to disassemble it. Can you help me? There is no easy way to troubleshoot problems like that over the internet. Go to the control panel and check sound settings. Make sure the microphone is enabled, not muted. I tried to refit it by applying sloder but the clips were removed from the base of the board.
Help me to repair this laptop i will be greatful to you…. If you need to access data, you can remove the hard drive and connect it to another working computer using an external USB enclosure as I explained in this post. At first crackly sound suggesting loose contact, now nothing except windows sound at boot up is normal. Where could there possibly be a loose wire etc. Looked at dis-assembly pdf, but unable to find sound card wire etc. If you hear Windows sound at boot up, your laptop hardware works properly.
It heats , burns , and the fan makes a lot of noise for about a year. There , no more problem. But it is spring and it is not yet warm enough for the presence of this ceiling fan is bearable because there is me turns me off. More I opted for Norton first edition pftttttttt it starts at any time in the background and pump the ram while aggravating overheating.
Norton is crap. Sony crap. Microsoft Windows : scammers with their requests for updates untimely day. Bing hotmail shit it is even difficult to remove. Here is my humble testimony. Thank you! No lights visible. I would like to get a schematic to do some troubleshooting.
