C314 hinge getting wobbly.

[dpsforjesus]

My screen is starting to wobble back and forth laterally. I can push on the pieces of the hinge and it will also wobble that way. This is a warranty replacement from the total replacement I got when my C303 broke into two pieces last year.

I searched and found that thread. Is following along the same repair instructions going to be my best bet? I'm assuming the C300 series is the same as the 310 as far as the case goes.

Thank you for any help

dps: If the hinge on your c314 appears to have the same physical attributes as the hinge described in the repair thread, then you can almost certainly apply that repair approach.

Tablet makers are like anyone else; if they develop something that seems to work, they'll use it on everything! It wouldn't make sense to design an entirely new hinge for your C314 unless there was something radically different about the screen...

Even then, most manufacturers will just modify their existing design....

Good luck!
