Replaced power port in HP laptop, can’t get front of keyboard to snap back in

Troubleshooting Keyboard Issues After Replacing the Power Port on an HP Laptop

Hello, fellow tech enthusiasts!

Recently, I embarked on my first DIY repair project—replacing the power port on my HP laptop. While I successfully completed the replacement, I encountered a small setback during reassembly: I couldn’t snap the front part of the keyboard back into place.

The issue seems to be concentrated around the area near the battery. After carefully disassembling the laptop once more to investigate, I discovered that the keyboard still wouldn’t fit correctly. Despite my efforts, the raised region remains a concern.

This experience has raised a question for me and hopefully for others as well—are there common pitfalls to watch out for when reassembling laptop components after repairs? If you have any tips or tricks to remedy this situation, I would greatly appreciate your insights.

Thanks for reading, and happy repairing!
