iPad 6
| Problem Description | Symptoms | Solution | Source |
|---|---|---|---|
| Not charging, no power. | - If you have a tristar tester or lightning breakout board you should test that before attempting the following. - Test with a known good battery. - Replace charge port. - If the above didn’t help you likely have a dead tristar. | Source | |
| Intermittent display issue. | No backlight or no display at all. | For whatever reason, the 5662 backlight IC dies over time and causes the intermittent no display issue and/or a total loss of display. Replacing this chip fixes the issue. | Source |
| Touch issues. | - May be ghost touching. - Touch may randomly stop working during use. | - It’s very easy to damage the digitizer FPC connector on the board. Inspect it for physical damage. - Another common issue on this model is solder balls cracking under the touch ICs, usually reflowing them is enough to fix, if not then replace them. - If the above does not fix the issue, it’s likely some of the traces between the touch ICs and FPC connector are broken internally. There isn’t a reliable fix for this. | Source |
