Einleitung

LCD screens are delicate and may crack under little pressure. A cracked LCD screen will leak and leave an inky mark that may be large enough to render the device unusable. Use this guide to take apart your Snapfon ez One and replace its broken screen.

    • Pry the LCD screen off of the circuit board using the opening tool. The screen is connected to the motherboard with light adhesive, which is easy to remove.

    • The LCD screen will still be connected to the circuit board by a ribbon cable.

    • Use a soldering iron to melt away the connection between the ribbon cable and circuit board.

    • Be careful! High temperatures from the soldering iron may result in injury.

    • Only make contact with the solder connection so that none of the phone’s components are damaged by the heat.

    • Once you heat the solder connection, lightly tug the ribbon cable free. The LCD screen will be completely removed from the device.

Abschluss

To reassemble your device with a new LCD screen, follow these instructions in reverse order.

Note: you will need to use the soldering iron again to attach the new LCD screen ribbon to the circuit board.
