Asus Q504UA-BHI5T13 Back Panel Replacement

Difficulty

Moderate

Steps

Time Required

10 - 15 minutes

Introduction

You will need to replace the back panel of your Asus Q504UA-BHI5T13 laptop if it is badly cracked or you may just need to remove it to access the internal components.

Before beginning, power off your laptop and disconnect from the power cord.

Tools

Step 1

Ensure that the laptop is off so you do not shock yourself.

Step 2

Use the T5 Torx screwdriver to remove the ten 1mm screws located around the back cover.

Step 3

Remove the two rubber pads nearest to you using the metal spudger.

The two pads on the hinge side.

Step 4

Use the Phillips #0 screwdriver to remove the two 4mm screws that are under the rubber pads.

Step 5

Insert any of the plastic opening tools into the seam to separate the back cover (it is recommended to start at the corner of the hinges). If you did it right, then the cover should pop off.
Be careful as you may damage the tabs.

Another good place to start is at the USB port near the SD card slott. Work toward the hinge first, then back down the short side. There are 5 strong tabs on each short side, and several weaker tabs on the front and between the hinges. The tabs are attached to the bottom. Once one short side is nearly free and the front seam is not totally closed, then try pushing the bottom toward the free short side (at most 1/2 mm) which can make the other tabs easier to “pop”.
