Requesting all to log complaint with Dell and share this thread on their twitter handle. If under warranty Dell is replacing the parts without any charges.
Dell is not replacing the 3525 under warranty even though its the same casing. We are going to have to do a self repair to fix it,
Hello Sir ! , when i open / close laptop the screen turns yellow near the hinges and bottom , clearing visible on black screen / brightness bit increased, if i touch the screen also the colour changes in the bottom . Whenever you open close laptop the pressure is there , and yellow it appears
@@Nish_2050 they will do for free
Where can I log the complaint?

My Dell was too stiff also, and it delaminated the top. Sent to Dell, they fixed it, but was just as stiff as before. You'd think they would 'calibrate' the hinges, but NO! Now the top is doing the same thing. Thanks Techstore for this info (that Dell techs need to learn.)
Wow... Can't tell you how grateful I am for this video. Saved me a trip to the computer store. Thank you and very much appreciated! 🙏🏻
We are glad it helped. Thanks for subscribing.
Have you done own your own ?
My son's laptop broke one of the hinge mounting points on the screen. Took it apart and glued the hinge to the screen using epoxy. Adjusted the hinges according to the video and it now works again with no issues. Thanks for having a clear and concise video on how to address this problem.
What apoxy did you use? I have the same issue, the plastic above the lcd has peeled off
@@slamminpotatoes4508hey please tell me how u get it resolved....mine laptop also get in this situation don't know what to do now... please help
@@randheerfogat1079 I ordered a new hinge and installed. Worked fine.
Thanks Sir🙏 for this video. Have a Inspiron N5010 and one of the hinges had gotten tight and was not closing down the lid all the way. I was about to order new hinges. Came across your video and adjusted the screw on the hinge and it solved the problem. For the N5010, you need to break the hinge cover tabs to remove the black plastic cover so you can access the hinge adjuster screw. I had tried once to repair the problem thinking it was an alignment issue but could not see the hinge mechanism due to black the hinge cover. You saved me the cost of hinges. Thanks. I was procrastinating this issue for months but as you mentioned in the video, the additional stress can damage the display and also damage the plastic parts due to stress application.
This is an EXCELLENT video. Thank you for taking the time to make this and upload it for us!
Thanks a lot for your kind words. Please do subscribe.
Great vid didn't miss a single beat concise, simple, and precise.
I dont ever comment on videos but I just got a laptop this past cyber monday for my mother and the hinges are STILL extremely tight. Thanks to this video I can open it with one hand and can pass this on to her without worry. Thank you.
Glad we could be of help 🙂
I’m gratefull I found your video. Thank you for share this video, my 3rd party IT consultant so lazy to fix this hinges matter.
Thank you very much for your video. One hinge on my laptop snapped off the plastic mounting and started to damage the display case. With your video and some JB Weld original cold weld epoxy, I reused the hinge, re-seated, and epoxied it in place. Over time, these hinges tighten, which leads to the damage. It took me a few adjustments to the hinge bolts to get the tension right. I noticed that I could reassemble the case with the hinge covers removed, thus allowing me to adjust the hinge bolts until the tension was right. It seems one of the display bezel's snap clips near the formerly broken hinge broke, so there is a slight gap where the bezel is not flush against the case, but it is barely noticeable and should not cause problems.
Hi!
I'm having trouble finding the 5.5mm wrench. Can I use 5mm or 6mm? Would you be able to inform me?
Thanks!
Thanks for the video. I've just had a similar issue and after seeing your video I disassembled mine and boy is it hard to adjust. Because my model is a 2-in-1 (Inspiron 17 7706) there's a total of four nuts I must calibrate and the space between them is so tight. I gave up since no spanner/wrench can fit in that gap. Dell clearly doesn't want you to fix their products.
Ahh . thats bad. Please subscribe for us to reply fast.
I wish I had seen this video before! Unfortunately, the hinges on mine broke out of nowhere and the display frame started to come apart. Luckily it was still under warranty and got it repaired, but I knew this was a design flaw. Many people on the internet reported this same issue with the same model, the Dell technical himself acknowledged it and recommended opting for Latitude model laptops, since those are sturdier. I also had an issue with my touchpad, it went absolutely crazy at times and was completely unresponsive. I solved it by unscrewing and removing it, then gently cleaned it with a cotton swab and reinstalled it. After that, the issue was gone. Maybe the connector was loose or there was some dirt on it, but I’m glad my computer is working correctly now. I like how fast it is, but I wish they used sturdier materials for the body

How much did it cost?
@@deonjoseph7178 it was still under warranty, so $0
Did they charge you to fix it in warranty card?
Same problem happen to me now, but mine is out of guarantee. Have you any idea how much it will cost?
I JUST DID MINE AND ITS 100000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000X BETTER!! I saw that one of the hinges was almost gonna pop, my sisters laptop which is a HP 15S have this problem and its hinge is broken. I searched up and ur video came up first, I cant explain how happy I am rn! God Bless U! I hope no problems occur to my notebook because i removed it tho
hey is this applicable for inspirion 5408? the hinges on it looks pretty stable as its connected to the metal outer lid
Hi Anand, Thank you for a good video on this topic. This weak hinge design and delicate structure of the laptop making it susceptible to damage when children are using it. Is there any gadget available to arrest the angle of lid protecting the laptop when children try to tilt the lid beyond its limit?
This helped a lot! Thank you Techstore!
Sir,i have a asus tuf a15,when i open the lid it makes a popping noise in the screen bezels near the hinge,it had happened in the warranty period where the service center loosened the hinges and it worked fine then.Now suddenly the noise has started again, is it something to worry of?
Thank you for this video. Now it's time to disassemble it and recalibrate to optimal tight. Thanks
Thanks so much for this video. I just got a Dell Inspiron 15" 3520 and the hinges were so stiff. I was able to fix it following your video.
Did you fixed it by yourself..?
@@jethin7 Yes. I just followed his video. I may have made the hinge slightly too loose but I can always tighten it up a little if needed.

Such an easy and amazing video. Best video so far. Because of this video I fixed my laptop. 👏🏽
Can you please suggest me from where to buy this 5.5 mm box spanner? Which brand are you using it. Thanks.
Thank you! My dell 3511 it's very strong to open up. Now i can fix it!😊🙌👌

Excellent video sir. Kind regards from Sydney Australia.
Same model here. My laptop just started to show signs of this after 1 year of using it. Should I loosen the tension or should I contact Dell? Does Dell cover warranty for this issue in the first place?
PLEASE REPLY SIR
Hello sir by watching this video in my case laptop 3511 hinges cap are loose so what to do now...
Waiting for your positive reply....
if its already broken how to atach plastic with those bolts?
nice vid. but why did you unplug all the devices before disassembling laptop?
This works, But doesn't need to take apart the screen. I did it without removing the screen and the. The covers of the hinges can be removed while the screen is attached. And can adjust the hinges with needle nose pliers. But anyway thank you for the video ❤️
How much dell service center charge for it and a other service center change?
A great video...
You literally saved thousands of rupees
Thank you for making this informational video
Sir i am also facing this problem if i go to dell service center how much cost they could ask ? Any idea
I wanted to know is this problem comes from company side or any thing else
Hello Sir. Purchased a DELL Inspiron 15 3511 on May 2022 for my daughter but was used only a few times. The hinges are good for now, will loosen the screws. But for me is the problem of CPU temperature, which often is more than 90degC, yes looks like their cooling solution is a disaster. Except for a cooling pad, reduced speed on bios, and maybe changing the thermal paste, is there another solution? Thank you.
Please use a good thermal paste.Please subscribe for more info.

Mine also same issue
If hinges will be too loose can laptop may have problem???
This is such a shitty laptop.. My laptop hinge broke too.. It had come out completely.. I had to glue it first and then loosen the screws.. Your video helped a lot to reach the hinge to fix it. Thank you.
What if it's broken the hinge is not stable in the screen?
Thank you Anand, this is a good explanation.
Inspiron 5401/5408 I bought got that issue after 1 year of purchase. I am so disappointed since it wasn't my fault, I believe it is a manufacturing defect. I moved to another country, and DELL didn't support me in the place where moved.
Thats sad to know.. Pls escalate on Dell Twitter handle. They will respond.

@@TechstoreCoIn good.. I went to a mechanic and he did it but it took him a lot of time because first it got too loose and then after many attempts he was able to synchronize them. He said hinges will be hardened with time again..

I managed to calibrate the hinges but after putting all the parts back, my laptop won't turn on + the LED won't light up when charging. No idea what went wrong. I tried reconnecting the VGA cable but it still won't work.
It seems this happened to other people in the comments too, so if someone found a solution, please reply 🙏
My problem with my Huawei Matebook 13 is that even before the hinge starts moving, the display has a a lot of excess play and it kinda pries the top and bottom panels of the keyboard apart.

They cover it in my country when the hinge broke that is a manufacturing defect. Especially if it is widespread.
Its only five day after the warranty date , I'm facing this problem now, will they resolve it ( dell service)
Thanks Sir🙏 for this video, I recently got the replaced Inspiron from dell after hinge broke.
So, I loosened the hinges of new laptop after watching your video.
1st time screen didn't start, So, I had to open again to properly insert VGA connector.

I've decided I'm going to do this job. I had to buy a 5.5mm socket...which will be here on Monday. Do you think I'll do a good job....I put new RAM in my laptop, no problems. Looks like a lot of wires to reroute. Great job on the video!
I'm definitely worried about the hinges or screen breaking! I'm VERY careful opening the lid....but still.
Once I get it to the proper tension, will it STAY at that tension?
It should but it is fairly easy to readjust if needed. I just did mine following this video.
It will stay. Need not worry. Calibration has to be done properly
Thank you sir 🙏 the it problem I fixed it 🙏
My hinges is broken . May I change that in local services centre or where I need to go
