Frequently asked questions

How do I know the issue is in this connector?
If the image returns when you press on the screen, or stripes vanish when you flex the device, the connector is almost certainly the culprit.

Do I need to replace the whole screen?
No, often only this flex is faulty. Test with a replacement connector before buying a full LCD.

Will everything work right after replacement?
Yes, in most cases. Sometimes a restart is needed so the system reinitializes the screen.
