Introdução
Follow this guide to replace the logic board in your iPad Pro 11" 3rd gen.
The logic board in your iPad Pro is paired to the Face ID hardware. Replacing it will disable Face ID.
This guide is written with an A2301 (cellular + mmWave) model iPad Pro. If you're fixing a Wi-Fi model, you can still use this guide—there will be some visual discrepancies, and you'll need to skip the steps related to the cellular antennas.
Some photos show the battery connector blocked with two card strips. While this is an optional method, it's more reliable to fully discharge the battery. Ignore this visual discrepancy as you work through the guide.
