Asus ZenBook VX5015 Tear Down - Hinge Top Lid Repair and Replacement 

Thank you! Just finished fixing my laptop by following this step by step. And you saved me the hassle by showing me to check for the smaller antennae wires and different right hinge revision. Much appreciated!

This was a big help in replacing the hinge cover, I went through something similar. Asus no longer makes a rear cover for my touch screen, so had to rebuild it with new screen, cover, bezel, webcam and camera/video cable. Also upraded the wireless to the 802.11AC standard. I hate the fact ASUS doesn't have hardware service manuals. Great video, thanks again for the help.

Tim, thanks for the video. I appreciate that you show a lot of the little things that one can miss because those are the kinds of things that always get me stuck. I think that this repair is more complicated than I want to attempt myself but that, also, is good information.

Always the way with laptops, just when you think it's fixed one little wire crops up and says "hey, I don't belong here" so you have to take it all apart again, had a few like that myself. FYI I find it handy to take pictures of the internals before disassembly just for a reference to how all wires sit. Good vid as always ;)

where can i buy the back cover with hinges ?

ASUS should up their hinge design. My S410 laptop and with hundreds other S series had broken left hinge from daily use, even with no falling nor bumps. Really annoying. and this UX501 is supposed to be a premium laptop, 2 times the price of mine and its hinge also broken. But it's from a fall so maybe a bit forgiven.

What is it with Asus and their bloody hinges. I've got two Asus laptops with seized hinges wich resulted in broken plastic where the hinge screws in.

I just JB welded mine back into place after watching another video. Couldn't find the top cover anywhere. Even if I would have found a new one I would have reinforced the crap out of the new one with JB before I put it back together so it doesn't happen again.

Good repair Timster

Great video Tim . That was hard work , I to have been caught out with revision changes , can not work out wether it's to improve the computer or to cut cost so the OEM can make more money. Keep up the good work Tim

Daughter gave me her old PC. So need this repair. With hers the pic doesn't come up on screen, but I can see it on tv with hdmi.

I had similar Issue, I repaired it from the service center some months back, they said they have changed something (Idk what it was), but it's again the same way again 🙁

Like the way to stayed cool even when things don't go smooth Sir. Got new subs heree😄

Hi Tim, thanks for the video Anyone know where i can find a hinge cover for UX501VW-DS71T 17" ?

Hey, Tim, great video! Thanks for that. (Love your icecube tray complete with paint-tape labels for those little bits and pieces that not only wanna get lost....but won't "tell you" where they go back, even if you DO have them in your hand! LOL Lastly, just curious what the "average/typical" charge would be for a repair like this? (I understand that they're "all different".....but just trying to get a "feel" for what I'm looking at costwise for a repair, vs replacement. I have a cracked screen as WELL as a broken hinge on my Asus UX360CA. Amazingly, the PC WILL still operate, but only if I hold the "lid" in one, precise position.........so, it's GOTTA be fixed or replaced. (I'm just trying to sort out the "lesser of two" dollar figures...ALL IN...including possible shipping of the unit, etc.) Thanks again, Tim. Great work.

my hinges damaged that little part of plastic on left hinge that push the screen for open and close. So I must change them but i need that plastic part. My pc are an Asus vivobook. Hope there's someone whocan help me. I'm going crazy ...

My hinge cover is completely empty off. I had my laptop since 2016

Thanks for showing this. My laptop cover and screen are mangled from a drop. Can you tell me where I can find a replacement and how to install that? Many thanks

thank you .. i want to see how to replace lcd cable!!

Tim mine broke twice. Overated laptop UX533 FDNS76.

Hey bro....can you please 🙏🙏 send me the link for purchasing this part..???

Fine work.

I fix laptops etc they can be tricky in finding parts awsome video

thank you

Good brother

awesome video!

some of my plastic cracked surrounding the hinge. Is it still possible to fix?

Someone is charging me 200 dollars for this repair, with the part price included. Is that a reasonable price or can I just do this myself? Keep in mind I know my way around repairing stuff. I just don't know a price range.

cool video , I like it

did you have the number/name of the part ?

Nice video

This happened to me but the thing is I cant fix because im still a kid

can you please send a link where you bought the lid with hinges please sir

Poora laptop hi kholdiya sala😶😳😳😳😂

How much do you charge for a back cover repair on an Asus laptop model x553s with a loose DC charging jack?
