Quite often, electronics sensitive to various overloads fail. This can happen, for example, in violation of the tablet’s operating mode. But what to do in this case to the ordinary consumer? Is it possible to repair a rather expensive tablet on my own or do I need to contact a service center? Replacing the iPad screen is a fairly common operation. Without a doubt, the specialists of the repair shop will help you. But if you have a desire to save a decent amount and make repairs yourself, then this article is written for you.
First of all, it is necessary to carefully inspect the device and determine the nature of the damage. If the LCD-display is not damaged and through the cracks on the glass you can see the normal image, it makes sense to postpone the purchase of a new device for an indefinite period.
After that, we begin to gradually prepare for the repair. Replacing the iPad screen begins with a search for the necessary accessories. The best option in this case is an online store where you can pick up all the necessary accessories. In this case, it is a protective screen.
You will also need an industrial dryer with a temperature control of at least 250 degrees Celsius. Several mediators, a plastic suction cup and glue.
Let's get started on the repair. Replacing the iPad screen requires extra care. All points must be carefully observed. Set the temperature of the industrial hair dryer to no more than 250 degrees Celsius, evenly heat the surface of the tablet around the perimeter with it. Using a plastic spatula, pry up the glass and fix it in the body with the picks.
After all the picks are inserted, carefully remove the protective glass using a suction cup. Now you need to unscrew the display. Pushing it a little, we will see a loop - disconnect it. After that, you can dismantle the touchscreen.
But the work does not end there. On the inside we see a small metal plate. Using a hair dryer, dismantle it, and then glue it to a new screen. We carry out the same operations with respect to the "Home" button.
Now the iPad screen is directly replaced - for this, take the special tape (it comes with the kit) and stick it around the perimeter of the inside of the case. Remove the thin
protective film. We carry out the reverse operation and carefully insert a new glass into the body. Please note that replacing glass on an iPad requires special sterility. If you leave fingerprints or dust particles on the inside, then in order to remove them, you will need to dismantle it.
Warm the device around the perimeter with a hairdryer, and for reliability, put the tablet under a small load. After some time, it will be possible to check the operability of the device. If all the operations are performed correctly, then you will get a fully functional tablet.
As you can see, iPad repair does not take much time and does not require special skills or specialized equipment. In this case, only care and accuracy are required when performing installation / disassembly operations.
