Step-by-Step Lenovo IdeaPad 510 Keyboard Replacement Procedure

1. Power Down and Prepare the Workspace

  • Shut down the laptop completely and disconnect all external devices.

  • Remove the power adapter and press the power button for 10 seconds to discharge any residual power.

2. Remove the Bottom Case

  • Flip the laptop and use a T5 Torx screwdriver to unscrew all visible screws on the underside.

  • Carefully pry open the bottom case using plastic tools. Take caution around the clips.

3. Disconnect the Battery

  • Locate the internal lithium battery and gently disconnect it from the motherboard.

  • This ensures safety while handling internal components.

4. Disconnect Keyboard Cable

  • Locate the keyboard ribbon cable and gently unlock the ZIF latch.

  • Slide the cable out and set it aside.

5. Remove the Existing Keyboard

  • From the inner chassis, identify the small screws or plastic rivets securing the keyboard.

  • Unscrew or drill out the rivets (if applicable) carefully without damaging the frame.

  • Push the keyboard out through the top frame and remove it.

6. Install the New Keyboard

  • Insert the new Lenovo keyboard into the top chassis, aligning it with the mounts.

  • Secure with screws or rivet replacements.

  • Carefully reconnect the ribbon cable into the ZIF connector and lock it in place.

7. Reassemble and Power Up

  • Reconnect the battery and reattach all internal components.

  • Replace the bottom cover and tighten the screws securely.

  • Boot up the system and test every key, including the number pad, function keys, and backlight toggle (if applicable).

Post-Replacement Keyboard Testing

After installation:

  • Open Notepad and test all keys to ensure no dead zones

  • Confirm the Fn + F5/F6/F9 combinations work

  • Check keyboard backlight (if equipped) using Fn + Spacebar
