TL;DR

  • Power down the Dell Pro 24 AIO QC24251 and disconnect all peripherals before beginning any disassembly to ensure personal and component safety.
  • Camera removal requires unlatching the stand and back cover, removing six system board shield screws, then two camera screws, and disconnecting the cable.
  • Reinstallation reverses the removal steps — seat the camera, secure screws, reconnect the cable, replace the shield and back cover, and relatch the stand.

Summary

This short tutorial from Dell Technologies walks through the complete process of removing and reinstalling the retractable camera on the Dell Pro 24 All-in-One (AIO) QC24251. The procedure begins with essential safety precautions — powering down the system, disconnecting all peripherals, and following ESD guidelines to prevent component damage. Disassembly involves unlatching the stand, removing the back cover, extracting the six-screw system board shield, and then detaching the two screws and cable connector that secure the retractable camera module. Reinstallation follows the reverse sequence: seating the camera, securing it with two screws, reconnecting the cable, replacing the latch, reinstalling the system board shield with its six screws, and reattaching the back cover and stand. The entire process is designed as a DIY customer-replaceable unit (CRU) procedure, making it accessible to end users comfortable with basic hardware disassembly. Viewers are directed to the official Dell Owner's Manual at dell.com/support for full safety instructions and compatible replacement parts.
