Powerbook 1400 cs lcd repair

[mindingulove]

Hello everyone

I've got a powerbook 1400 with a broken lcd panel but could not find a repair part. Any idea where I can find? Thx

... from another junker 1400cs or 1400c, they are a straight swap.  No other easy way to source the part.

Yep, unlikely you will find a brand new replacement part... best bet is to find a stuffed 1400 on the cheap with a good LCD and scavenge parts.

Do you guys have a link for a site with a junk one? Could not find on eBay and we love macs won't ship to Brazil

 

[mindingulove]

Maybe There is a way for adapting an easier to find part, since this laptop is hard to find parts. Anyone have tried?

 

[Byrd]

Not possible sorry - the connectors, timings, etc are all different across most LCDs.  Do you have a part no for the LCD, it might glean more info if it was also used say in a Toshiba

PB 1400c use Sharp LQ1142 11.3" screen. You can find some alone on the bay, but not cheap.

Don't know in what other machine it's been used...

Too bad. I have a Simasima 1400, and it turns out that the 1400 is OK, its the LCD Screen that is Simasima. I would love to fix that one day.

Galgot is right that's the display. Isn't the same as PowerBook 520? Passive matrix display ? Maybe interchangeable

Yeah mine is all good except from the lcd and it turned really hard to find. The only lcd on eBay its very expensive

I have a spare 1400 active matrix display assembly. I may even have two, I gotta check.

I might want one!

If he hasn't got one, I know I do. My (Procrastination Plagued Project) Pile-o-1400s stretches approx 30" across the bottom of a bookshelf. The limiting factor is the Cracked Lid Coefficient, so if your lid is good, I know I've (at the very least) got a cs LCD replacement for you, if not a borked c lid for a full swapout upgrade.

Offer in PM welcome, dunno what they're worth on eBay, but the toy account could always use a bit of help. Debit to Credit Ratio is almost as abysmal as my procrastination prone turnaround times. [] ]'>
