Title
iMac 27" 2017 Display Replacement
Introduction
Removing the display on the iMac Intel 27" Retina 5K Display requires cutting adhesive with a specialized iMac opening tool. After you've completed your repair, you'll need to follow our [guide|136839|adhesive strip replacement guide] to scrape off the old adhesive and replace it with new double-stick adhesive strips.
'''Before beginning any work on your iMac:''' Unplug the computer and press and hold the power button for ten seconds to discharge the power supply's capacitors.
'''Be very careful''' not to touch the capacitor leads or any exposed solder joints on the back of the power supply.
This procedure involves removing the faulty/broken display, as well as transferring the display data cable and thermal sensor to a new display.

Conclusion
Compare your new replacement part to the original part—you may need to transfer remaining components or remove adhesive backings from the new part before installing.
'''To reassemble your device, follow the above steps in reverse order.'''
Take your e-waste to an [[E-Waste|R2 or e-Stewards certified recycler|new_window=true]].
