Hi,
recently my ipod stopped responding to touch, and the volume button died (after being scrambled with the power). Do you think replacing this will work? I think my ipod got water in it.
I need a new lcd and digitizer and I dont want to spend money on spare parts (£30ish)and find it doesnt work when a second hand ipod is £70.

did you get to test the ipod after this repair? if so how did it do?

cant say i have had much luck

Does it matter what side of the tape goes where. Like the current only goes one way or is it a two way thing. I know it goes up down not side to side. But does it only go one way?

Hi Gilksy1,
I've followed your guide many times and sometimes i find after putting the new ribbon on there is a loss of wifi functionality. have you had this problem too? any idea what causes it?
Thanks in advance.

Please dont enquire about magic tape as stated at the end of the video. This is a stationary product rather then the z axis 9703 for electronic use!
Thanks for the instruction! How hot do you have the soldering iron set at to transfer the heat to adhesives?

yep 100%
the reason why i didnt show a strip down and rebuild guide is because there are loads already on youtube......but after searching i could not find a video showing you how to reattach the main mother board ribbon!
