Introduction
What you need
Step 1
key removal
- To get to the screws beneath the keyboard you need to take some keys off. You can use either an opening tool or an opening pick. The first picture shows how it should look like with all the necessary keys off (12 in total).
- The four longer keys from the fingerboard are to be handled from the left side to get them off.
- The eight smaller keys need to be levered from the bottom up.

Step 2
removing scissors mechanisms
- The scissor mechanism of the eight small keys are obstructing the underlying screws.
- By using again an opening tool or opening pick these can be snapped off easily.
- When reassembling be sure to place them in with the correct side facing upwards.

Step 4
Display
- Open the display cable connector by using a plastic opening tool to flip the latch upwards.
- The display is held in place with a mild adhesive. A spudger helps you to get it free.
- Now you can unplug the cable and take out the whole display.
- After reassembly you want to perform the three function tests (0, 1 and 2) from the OP-1 special start screen. You can enter this menu by holding the COM key when powering up.

I see that the part # is AMS260CM61 ver 2 by Samsung. However, I have not been able to source it online.

Hi Jack, unfortunately we do not know where to get a replacement screen for the OP-1. You might want to get in contact with the guys from Teenage Engineering directly. Sorry
