Can you connect screen part to a different keyboard on Surface Book?
The charging port on my Surface Book is not working. I cannot find specific charging port parts but saw just the keyboards on sale on ebay. Can I pair my screen with any type of keyboard or does it need to be identical to the one I have? I know the Nvidia GPU is in the keyboard but besides that is there anything else essential in that part of the Surface Book?

Have you tried undocking the keyboard base from the display? There is a similar connector on the bottom of the display to allow the display battery to charge.

The Question Is will the screen work with the same keyboard off a different machine? The hard drive is in the screen half, the big battie is in the keyboard half.

In general, the replacement parts of the same generation work, if it is from a different surface book generation, it won't.
For general funcion, it is not important, if you you have a base with graphics card and the replacement unit has no graphics or vice versa.
There are many replacement parts around at ebay which are from China. I cannot tell, if they work or not, but it may be that they only work partly. The bad thing is that microsoft itself does not offer the keyboard base separately and only offers a complete exchange unit for about 600 bucks or so.
