Nokia Lumia 2520 Display Assembly Replacement

Difficulty

Moderate

Steps

Time Required

10 - 20 minutes

Introduction

The Nokia Lumia 2520 is a tablet manufactured in 2013 and has a Microsoft based software. The tablet display has a 10 inch display size while producing a resolution of 1920x1080 pixels. If the screen on the Lumia 2520 is clean and not broken and the display on the tablet is pixelated or faded; the display assembly inside the tablet needs to be replaced.

This guide will demonstrate the steps needed to safely remove the display assembly for replacement.

Tools

Step 1

Apply heat pad to each side of the device.
When using any heat pad please use some form of padded gloves so you don't burn you fingers.
Microwave the pad for 30 seconds so an ample amount of heat is given on all four sides. Do not microwave more than once every two minutes.

Step 2

Insert the pick between the glass to separate the glass from the device. You can also use the suction cups to help lift the glass.
When pulling the screen off the chassis, be careful not to cut the ribbon cable that connects the screen to the logic board.
Take your time to pry open the screen from the chassis as you can easily break the screen or crack it.

Step 3

Pull the ribbon cable out from the connection port on the board.
Move on the step 4 to remove the ribbon connection from the screen.

Step 4

Use the plastic pry tool to remove both of the connections.

Step 5

Set aside the screen and the display assembly for repair.

Conclusion

To reassemble your device, follow these instructions in reverse order.
