Introduction

All the tools you will need in this guide can be found in the iFixit Pro Toolkit. We suggest you perform this replacement on a large, level workspace where you can avoid knocking small parts onto the floor. Label any small parts so you know where to put them when reassembling the laptop.

Consult the Toshiba Satellite P105-S6147 Device Page for further questions.
