Olympus Stylus 1010 LCD Display Replacement

Difficulty

Moderate

Steps

Time Required

5 - 10 minutes

Introduction

Use this guide to replace the LCD.

Tools

Phillips #00 Screwdriver

Step 1

Remove the five Phillips #00 bottom and right side panel screws.

Put a notice on here that the screws are very small and are easy to misplace while disassembling device. Also, while disassembling the device there was only one screw present, where the guide suggested there were three.

Before beginning, put a note that the camera should be turned off before proceeding.

Add a note at the beginning of the guide that there are a large number of small screws that should be separated as the steps are completed.

Step 2

Remove the right side panel by pulling off the large silver piece.

There is no reference to removing screws from the right side panel, where it is necessary to remove 2 screws to do so.

Step 3

Remove the remaining three Phillips #00 side and front panel screws.

Step 4

Using your thumb and forefinger, pull off the silver name plate and silver "T-shape" piece.

Step 5

Remove the black front panel by sliding it towards the lens and then pulling it up off of the camera.

Step 6

Remove the three Phillips #00 screws from the front of the camera.
Using a spudger, lift the two tabs to separate the case—one tab on top and one tab on the right side.

Wrong point of focus for the second picture. What should be in focus is very blurry.

Step 7

Using a plastic spudger, lift up the black clips.
Still using the plastic spudger, detach the gold connector strip and white connector strip.
Using both hands, pull the camera apart into two pieces.
