Tilt stand broke - Ar5b22

Sweet_kitty

I have an Ar5b22, and I heard a crash in my office. The tilt stand gave way and now I have the PC in a make shift stand, but I need to know if the tilt stand can be repaired/replaced and how can I do that?

Hello,

Could you me the first ten characters of the AIO serial number (S/N)?

Thanks. You own an Aspire U5-610. Where is the stand broken exactly? Could you post a picture?

This tilt stand "clicks" in to place at various angles.  The weight of the PC must have finally been too much for the tilt stand and it no longer has the ability to "click" at a higher angle.

Thanks. I think the spring of the hinge is broken or moved from its housing. You should check it.

1. Detach the hinge cover:
   
   
2. Check the position of the spring:

If I can get the cover off, I will check it and let you know.  Thanks so much. You have been most helpful!
