Lenovo Yoga 520-141kb (uk) Replacement Screen
I have an Lenovo Yoga 520-141kb (uk) laptop and alas the screen has cracked, it is a touch screen so I have disabled the Touch Screen option under Device Manager > Human Interface Devices so it disabled the touch screen option.
This worked for a while but now screen flickers and distorts so I am looking to replace the screen.
Any body know of a good location to purchase replacement screens, preferable well priced as the laptop is one of my children’s.

yes many are ….. you can also take a look at Lenevo Service Center in UK nearby if you can find parts which would be cheaper and you will save custom cost

usually there is a sticker on the backside of the screen where you find all infos needed.

Finally got around to replacing the screen on the 14″ Lenovo laptop, after a lot of shopping around, I ended up purchasing a brand new screen from AliExpress.com as I have an account. I paid £70 which included delivery for an LENOVO YOGA 520-14 Full HD (1920×1080) touch screen digitizer assembly which arrived about 10 working days after order was placed and was well packed etc.
Took me about 3 hours to remove old panel and remove electrics, wires, circuit boards. magnets and web cam etc. then re-add (with glue) to new screen digitizer assembly.
Kid is happy again and a few pounds (£) saved
Thanks to all whom gave me good advice

Ok, so I replaced my daughters LCD Touch Screen on her Lenovo yoga 520 14ikb a while ago and for a while everything was working well, then all of a sudden and for no real consistant reason, the screen defaults to vertical white/grey lines image and a power reset is required.
After a lot of online investigations, seems to be a common problem with the LCD Screen cable especially around the hinges CAUSING WEAKNESS IN THE WIRING ETC.
So ordered a new LCD Screen cable from Ebay for £6 (good price) and removed the original LCD Screen cable but unfortunately during the process accidently broke one of the screen sensors (lenovo ls-e543P) connector that plugs into the LCD Screen cable (they are very delicate)
Anyway – any ideas of where to get a new / used (lenovo ls-e543P) can be purchased as only a single seller on Ebay in UK selling one for £25 “ouch” – I have looked on Alibaba etc. and no luck as yet
Pics below (from internet) of lenovo ls-e543P screen sensor part and screen when image gets distorted
Note: I have tried the laptop without the sensor but seems to effect Touchpad and keyboard input, so an USB external mouse only solves half the problem and I do not want to disable the Touch screen option unless I have no other choice ;-)
