Between steps 9 and 10, the motherboard is removed and no description photos are provided for this. I undid the cable on the right hinge and then removed the hinges and screen with the motherboard in place, but the pictures definitely show it removed. Otherwise a very easy to follow process.
I agree with Philip’s comment re: the missing step between 9 and 10. I successfully followed these very clear instructions to repair my daughter’s Chromebook. Thank you!
