Einleitung

Without the LCD screen, you cannot preview your nifty vacation photos. If this screen is cracked, the waterproof qualities of the Nikon may be sacrificed. Allowing water to infiltrate into the body can cause for additional problems.

    • Using your thumb and pointer finger, open the card/battery hatch by pressing the center button of the wheel and turning the entire wheel to the left.

    • Using a Phillips #000 screwdriver, remove the single 3mm screw found inside the battery/charging compartment.

    • Remove the upper cover (connected by glue) and unscrew the single Philips screw.

    Start with a metal spuge from the buckle on the lens-side and work your way from there.

    Its not necessary to remove the whole thing - cause the side on the other buckle tends to break.

    • Remove two Philips screws from the bottom cover, lift gently the cover and remove the single Philips screw under it.

    In the case of my camera, I had to move the plat that says “EAC…” to the side. Underneath was another small Philips screw that I had to remove before I could take off the back panel

    The back cover is connected to the main board with two flexible flat cables (FFC). The connectors on the board have lids that lock the cables, so first lift the lids with a plastic tip, then tear the cable with no force aut of the connector.

    • Pull the LCD screen from the plastic frame after removing all of the screws.

  12. TMVHOOsRWmHIZb3C

    • Using a pair of tweezers from the precision tweezer set, carefully remove the screen from the metal frame.

    • Since the tweezers could shatter the screen, causing for broken glass, exercise extreme caution.

What appears to be the most difficult step —Step 7 —has its critical parts skipped over: how to carefully remove the top cover from its glued surfaces without breaking it. What tool is used? Where does one start the process? Are there particularly vulnerable sections where caution should be used to avoid breaking the cover?

Also not included are the instructions for replacing the top cover and making sure it stays in place. If it is re-glued, what type of glue is used?

Other than that, the instructions are clear and beautifully illustrated.
