Symptoms

  • Device shows no image on the screen

Solution

If you have no display with a known-good screen and can tell the device is on, the backlight diode likely blew out. This is a common occurrence when the iPad's battery is left connected while plugging in a new screen. Multiple diodes along the board can blow out at once from this. It's a relative easy fix. This affects multiple iPad models but the 9.7 seems to be the easiest to blow out the diodes.
