Project title: How to Replace a Keyboard on an HP Pavilion Series Laptop
Included:
- Checkpoint photo set (PDF, steps 1–8): 4 completed, hands-on photos (my HP Pavilion and my hand in frame) and labeled placeholders for the final four shots I’ll add after approval.
📄 iFixit_Checkpoint_Photo_Set_Nancy_Forvilus-Corvil.pdf - (Optional supporting docs for your records)
• 📄 Fast Fix Project Proposal
• 📄 Full iFixit Project – HP Pavilion Keyboard
What the attached photos show (Steps 1–4 completed):
- Powering down and unplugging the HP Pavilion
- Flipping the laptop to access the bottom panel/battery area
- Identifying bottom-panel screws and battery latch
- Setting up the work area and parts tray
I plan to add the remaining shots (panel off, ribbon-cable unlock/lock, and final key test) immediately after checkpoint approval. Please let me know if these meet the EDU requirements or if you’d like any adjustments before I proceed.
Thank you for your time!

Did you have to use soldering iron to melt the plastic rivets when putting back the keyboard?
Cheers.
I have done these before and yes, using a soldering iron to melt the plastic rivets is a good method.
Helpful. Too good!
