Dell e1705 Laptop new hinges problem
Last week one of my hinges was broken. I ordered a new pair and it arrived today.
When i was installing them I noticed that they don't turn or are too tight. How do I loosen them?
Any advice will be appreciated.
Thanks

Which part did you order? When the hinge on this system breaks, this is the part you normally need to replace:

It's been my experience that when the hinges break, you need the back cover assembly - that part of the hinge is the one that fails most often.
