Should I replace LCD or ribbon cable only (if possible)?


Hi,

My 2018 razer blade 15 (GTX 1070, 16gb RAM, Intel core i7-8750H, etc., ID: rz09-02386F91) could use some repairs.

Context:

The ribbon cable connecting the LCD to the motheboard is damaged at the hinge point (I believe this is a common issue), after a few weeks of the screen sometimes glitching a bit with temporary flickering, it is now only on (and responsive) when I partially lift the laptop screen (i.e., if I hinge the screen out past a certain angle it turns off).

Additionally, the microphone and webcam don't work (that's been the case for over 2 years), and battery is quite bad now, might as well replace that too.

Laptop is past warranty obviously, I haven't contacted razer support yet.

Questions:

Can I replace the ribbon cable only (connecting LCD, microphone and webcam)?

If so do you know where I can find the part?

Or if I have to replace the LCD entirely, where can I find that/does it automatically come with a new ribbon cable?

Thanks for your help
