Problem description
The LCD of iPad Produces no backlight.
Solution
This Guide is only made to repair the LCD screen.
The LCD of this iPad has a defect on the Backlight cable that can be repaired without swapping the backlight module.
First remove this sticker.
Next remove this piece of metal.
Next using a small precision dremel with a cutting bit make a small hole like this.
Be careful to not cut too deep or you will damage the LCD, cut really slow.
After making the hole you will see the cable is ripped in this section.
To repair the cable we will need to expose the coper traces,use a X-Ato blade like this one.
Scrape the cable very gently until it looks like this.
After scraping we need to do a few jumpers like the image bellow.
Avoid using to much flux because if you do it will infiltrate the LCD and you will have stains on LCD
After doing the jumps you can place a small piece of kapton tape over it.
After doing this test the LCD and you should have it back working like normal.
