Nice work. Clean, organized, and clearly explained. Thanks for the tutorial. I am definitely interested in more Switch repair videos.

[@popp7223]

Before placing the digitizer screen, how do you center the lcd screen ?

[@mattsais2025]

Thanks bro very helpful and my 5 yr old is very happy he don’t have to play on the tv 24/7

[@DaveCynik]

Hi, It's possible to replace only the digitizer without removing the cart reader?

[@stephaniecampbell5062]

Thanks

[@Inky5]

THANK YOU I OWE MY LIFE TO YOU I just broke my screen by accedent and I thought I had just lost months of progress. Now I know it's fixable

[@thefirstsliceofbread930]

[@domfn5572]

Thx

[@mplaygaming1677]

Would a hair dryer work to heat up the digitizer?

[@spardas6900]

You can separate touch and lcd and dotn broken in the process?? Is possible?

[@arturo7926]

i like your hair

[@Ghost.walker899]

Where can I get tri wing screwdriver plz

[@michaelharmon9714]

Ps4 and switch please, great video. I have a "cracked" glass but the picture is perfect. Touch screen works fine. What do I need to order? The lcd?

[@profixerr6275]

If your picture is perfect then you probably need to replace the digitizer portion. However the digitizer is made of plastic so its hard to actually crack it. The display is made up of 2 parts: the digitizer which is the outer layer of 'glass' which has the digitizer/touch panel fuzed to the back of it. And the LCD (picture portion) is separate.

[@ItsKagiVids]

I personally wouldn't feel comfortable fixing it myself considering I'm not experienced at all do you know any repair shops I could bring my Switch to???

[@micewasouci2445]

Thanks!

[@IndiSimpsonRomero]

I repaired my screen but now it is funky I cant see well I have to move it to catch the right light n brightness it's all rainbowish affect on it and the left over adhesive on the digitizer is showing through the screen on parts ... it's hard to show on camera but I took a video just incase. I'm not sure why it looks bad. I assume the polarizer is messed up but idk really I'm a noob and I think I messed up some how it turned on and works the reassemble was a vocal minus the rainbow screen now.

[@aminzaka6385]

my display backlight is working but the display doesn't show pixels on my new display I just replaced with. I think the connector is broken

[@gdawg1585]

My LCD isn't broken I just have a little dent In the middle of the screen and when I turn it on it takes a tiny bit longer to turn on and the dent has a tiny blue glow when I turn it on should I worry about this cause it still works fine I'm just worried I internally damaged my switch

[@Soulszs]

I broke my lcd it looks just like the one you had in the beginnging

[@quintus.n5694]

Do you mean when you tried replacing it or you just broke it playing

[@marketableplushie4296]

Quick question: If it stays like that, does it work on TV?

[@crazym0nkeys]

Yes it will still work on your TV

Who else smashed their screen because somebody demo’d you and scored in rocket league

[@WeidauerMelts]

Me- lesson learned. Find something else to smash your controller on not the damn screen. Most amount of fear a person can feel in 5 seconds.

My switch is definitely on but the display isn’t.

[@azirdotwav]

I am done with Switches. Lots of screen issues even when newly bought. I bought three switches and all of them have separate LCD issues. First one has Mura effect, the other has some dirt inside the screen and the last one has dead pixels. Goodbye Nintendo. I will never spend another dime on you.

[@Notsofunnyman217]

I need a new one

[@leolalewis4667]

Do it without replacing it

[@profixerr6275]

I wish that was possible, unfortunately you have to replace it since its physically broken

[@KourttneyL]

Did everything right but it won’t turn on for some reason. I have the animal crossing one :( so I guess that I’m just going to buy a whole new console.

[@quintus.n5694]

That makes me not want to touch mines 😕

[@FresshAudiozz]

You alive bro?

[@zhogetsgirlsallday22]

I just broke the screen

[@TheVicmarxx]

Not sure if it's because of the digitiser I bought, but it kinda drops when I want to slide laterally... vertically everything is fine and I also can click on everything... not sure where it comes from
