Replacing the iPad screen - a service center or a lab?

Quite often sensitive electronics to various overloads fail. This can happen, for example, if the tablet's operating mode is violated. But what should the ordinary consumer do in this case? Can I repair a fairly expensive tablet myself or need to contact the service center? Replacing the iPad screen is quite common. No doubt, the repair shop specialists will help you. But if you want to save a decent amount and repair 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 a normal image is seen through the cracks on the glass, then it makes sense to postpone the purchase of the new device for an indefinite period.

After that we begin to prepare in stages for repair. Replacement of the iPad screen starts with finding the necessary components. 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.

Also need an industrial hair dryer with adjustable temperature of at least 250 degrees Celsius. Several mediators, a plastic sucker and glue.

Let's get down to the repair. Replacing the iPad screen requires extreme care. All points must be carefully observed. Set the temperature of the industrial hair dryer no more than 250 degrees Celsius, evenly warm it with the help of the surface of the tablet around the perimeter. Using a plastic spatula, grasp the glass and fix it in the body with the mediators.

After all the mediators are inserted, gently remove the protective glass with a suction cup. Now you need to unscrew the display. A little pushing it aside, we will see a train - disconnect it. After that, you can dismantle the touchscreen.

But this does not end with the work. On the inside we see a small metal plate. Using a hair dryer, dismantle it, then glue it to a new screen. We perform the same operations in relation to the "Home" button.

Now you can directly replace the iPad screen - for this, take a special tape (it comes in the kit) and glue it around the perimeter of the inside of the case. Remove the thin protective film. We perform the reverse operation and carefully insert the new glass into the case. Please note that the replacement of glass on the iPad requires special sterility. If you leave fingerprints or dust particles on the inside, then in order to remove them, you will need to remove it.

Warm the device around the perimeter with a hair dryer, and for reliability, place the tablet under a small load. After a while it will be possible to check the operation of the device. If all operations are performed correctly, you will get a fully working 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 assembly / dismantling operations.
