Replacement Keyboard for VGN-FS series

junglejuz — Wed, 25 Jan 2006 21:05:50 GMT

I've just bought a US keyboard for my VGN-FS115S because it was bought with a German keyboard on it. My problem is that I can't seem to work out how to open it up so that I can actually replace it. If anyone out there can help me out with instruction for doing this I'd appreciate it immensely.
Many thanks,
Justin

I think you'll find that there are two screws on the base - slightly off centre - that fit a couple of bolts that come off the bottom of the keyboard and go straight through the laptop body. Once off there's a connector that seems pretty easy to fit too. I only know this because I just had a keyboard fitted and when I looked at the old one it was obviously a very simple job.

Of course, you need to know which two screws to undo in the first place, and there are quite a few of them!
