Chosen Solution
Hi all, I am reparing a Galaxy Tab 3 lite 7.0 (T111/T113). I replaced the digitzer, so far so good, but when I turned the tablet on the lcd screen stayed white, while it was working allright before the replacement of the digitizer. I checked the connection of the lcd, cleaned it with isopropanol, but no result. The connector looks fine. Then I took a closer look at the power connector. The center pin seems to be different then the other 6 pins:
It is a bit hard to see but the middle pin is way shorter then the rest: did I break it? Or does it need to be shifted ‘under’ the power flex cable instead of above like the other 6 ones? I don’t know for sure because the tablet powers on but the lcd stays white. The middle power pin says ‘CNT’ (as seen in the pictures).
Thanks in advance! Update (10/12/2016) @oldturkey03 Thanks for your answer! I actually removed the locking mechanism myself to make this picture but I already put it back in, no result. What do you think about the LCD cable?
@bartn “The connector looks fine.” I do not think so. You are missing the locking mechanism to lock the cable in place. There is nothing that forces the pins to make proper contact with the cable. Take a look at what it is supposed to look like on the following image.
Update (10/12/2016) @bartn see if this will help you further
