Kindle 7th Generation Screen Replacement

Introdução

The screen of your Kindle could be considered the "base part," essentially the part to which all other components are connected. While the repair is relatively straight forward, you will be required to completely disassemble your Kindle. Do not fear though, as this guide will walk you through the steps.

    • Peel the front panel off to remove it from the Kindle.

    • If this is the first time the front panel has been removed, the adhesive may require a significant amount of force to undo.

    • To prevent damaging the front panel, peel the panel from the corners towards the middle of the Kindle.

    • When reassembling your device, if you are replacing the front panel, additional adhesive may be required.

    • Working evenly along the corners and edges, separate the internal contents from the back panel.

    • Use the tip of the spudger to flip up the small retaining flap on the copper colored zero insertion force (ZIF) connector.

    • Make sure to flip up the flap and not the connection itself.

    • Pull the cable from the connector.

    • No force is required to do this, as the name, ZIF, implies.

    • Similar to the previous step, flip up the retaining flap on the white cable connector.

    • Pull the white cable from the connection.

    • During reassembly, make sure the retaining flaps for both the white and copper colored cable connections are secured. As these are zero insertion force connections, the cables could potentially slide out if this is not done.

My screen froze two days ago while doing a reboot. So I read up on advice and nothing worked. Then I contacted Amazon and spent a mammoth six hours on chat trying to sort out the issue. After 5 consultants I ended up ordering a new kindle with a discount. When trying to apply the discount I spoke to an Australian Kindle guy who told me to drain the battery by leaving it for months without charge. Then I found this page and so I disassembled my Kindle up to removing the battery. Then I plugged the battery back in, and switched it on and it worked!! So I reassembled it and now it is working fine. Only problem is I just paid $249 for a new Kindle.
