If your HP 15-ay114cy (also known as the HP Notebook 15) has been recently dropped or damaged, resulting in a cracked or scratched display, you may have to replace the laptop’s screen.
A properly functioning screen would not only have a high-resolution display but would also be free of scratches or cracks. However, since the screen has the ability to fracture, it is possible that, over time and through extensive use, the piece can become damaged.
Before replacing the device’s screen, ensure that all external devices are unplugged from your USB or Audio ports. It is also important to unplug the device from any charging cables and to turn off the device before following the replacement guide.
No special skills are needed to replace the screen, but you will need a plastic opening tool and a #000 Phillip’s head screwdriver.
