It does NOT cover chip or motherboard repair and there is a good reason for this.

As the author of this work I have worked in the industry for 20 years and I make a good living from repairing laptops and computers. However, like most computer technicians I am not an electronics engineer – if I have chip issues or motherboard issues I have a specialist take care of that for me simply because I can spend more time replacing parts such as a keyboard or laptop screen repair – these are quick and easy jobs & make you great money.
What I will teach you is how to do the job of a laptop repair technician so you can apply your skills in a smart & efficient manner when it comes to fixing a laptop.
Lets start our laptop repair training

For laptop repair training…you will need a laptop to practice on

In order to get the most from this laptop repair training you should really obtain a laptop to practise on.

It doesn’t matter if the one you pick actually works or not.

(Btw, as a musician, I couldn’t help myself but share this post from Victor Bailey featuring 6 best cheap laptops for music production (under $500): link.)

Where can I get a laptop to practice repairing?

The best place to pick up a cheap laptop to practice on  is Ebay, search for ‘broken Laptops’.  The last time we checked there were over 10,000 laptops you could pick up to practice on. You can check yourself before moving on with the training.

We recommend that you do. Done that? Good.  Imagine being able to buy, repair and sell those laptops!  You can strip them down and sell the parts of simply fix and resell them.

Tools you will need during the training

For the majority of laptop repair jobs we have found that you will mostly only use a selection of precision screwdrivers and occasionally a Laptop Repair Toolssoldering iron.  We will cover the tools you require on the next page.  If you have these already, great, if not then again Ebay or Amazon are a great source for these.

 

Workbench, desk or kitchen table

Try to create a place to work where you have plenty of space.  Taking a laptop apart can produce a lot of parts that may need to be spread around to help keep a track on where they came from or to help you determine a fault.  Remember that laptop parts can sharp and can scratch a table so make sure whereverscratched table you work you bear this in mind.  We prefer to work on a piece of foam or cork board, rolled up foam is great if you need to take a laptop apart when working from a clients home.

You will also need

  • Plastic screw box Plastic Screw Box
  • Large tub for placing your laptop parts into
