IBM R32 - How to tighten the LCD assembly ?

#1 Post by Wiking » Thu Jul 02, 2009 8:49 am

Hi,
I have Ibm R32 and I wanted to know how to tighten the display hangs ?
I mean that right now when I open the LCD it sits not that strong and if i move the labtop the display wobbles a little. I want to make it strong like I have in My T60.
At first few years it was ok but now it really annoying me.
Thnak you.

Download the maintenance manual for the R32 and review the screws involved in securing the LCD assembly/hinges to the case. Tighten those screws. It may involve removing the keyboard and keyboard bezel to get at some of the screws. Some others may be accessed directly at the back of the machine. If that does not fix the issue, then you have to replace the hinges. There are no adjustments on the hinges.

What you said at first, I did already but it didn't help. I thought that I can adjust the hings.
Thank you.

No adjustment is possible. You'll have to find a new set of hinges.
