Asus C434t screen repair?

[Dan Robinson3]

Hi,

Does anyone know where I might find a replacement screen for Asus C434t. My kids cracked it a few weeks after buying it and I can't seem to find any place online that actually sells parts for this model.
Trying to contact Asus has been impossible there's no information on the website and nobody answers the phone after an hour of waiting.

Any help anyone can give is greatly appreciated thank you.

D.

Check LaptopScreen.com, they show having a screen for the T434 model in stock. Hope this helps get you device back in working order!

Welcome to Android Central! I found this: https://www.laptopscreen.com/English/model/ASUS/CHROMEBOOK~FLIP~C434TA/. I can't find anything on the web that says there's a significant difference between the C434T and the C434TA.

Thank you both. It is the outer glass that has cracked, rather than the piece that renders the pixels (that's working fine). Touch is affected in the areas with the crack. That site lists display (in-stock) & touch digitizer (not in-stock) as separate items, I assume I need the digitizer right?

It seems to only have a removable panel along the lower edge (nr hinges) rather than a bezel that runs around the whole screen. If anyone has any hints on how I might replace the outer glass it would help. It seems to be similar to a cell phone display in how it is mounted, as I can't find anyway to lever it out - the glass and frame seem to be tightly glued(?).

That sounds pretty challenging.:-\ Unfortunately, I couldn't find any screen replacement or even teardown guides for that Chromebook, so I'm not sure how feasible it'll be to do this yourself.

Have you had any progress on this part? I have the same issue.
How did you manage to remove it in the end? Do I need a hairdryer to heat the glue?
