yo bro I did it yesterday took me 3 hrs lol but I got it done by myself no experience, thanks dude

[@FixiT-Rick]

So proud of you Marcos! You ROCK! 👊

[@Dorench]

Thanks dude, big help, even if I did need stitches after I slipped cutting the old screen off! For anyone trying this, it's much easier to sperate the disc changer from the screen and then proceed to tearing the screen down.

[@ernestoch2827]

I know this is an old video but some people's new cars are old from others.. this video is on point, I. ws following a write down fm other source but things were too complicated, this way saves time, I almost mess it up with the last connector, it's so little and I put it up side down, I twisted the pins, my wife who is super detailed came to the rescue and fixed it. great video thank you so much..

[@balancemode4112]

thank you so much👏🏻 i just did it for my 2007 Lexus IS250, works perfect! thanks allot

[@FixiT-Rick]

Awesome! You’re welcome.

[@ScottCrane]

Excellent video! Took me about three hours also. I'd suggest trying it before bolting it back on. The screen I purchased already had the tape. Also taking the picture of the back of the unit showed me nothing was plugged into one of the blue female plugs. Great suggestion. Well Done!

[@FixiT-Rick]

Great Scott, You ROCK! 🔥

[@jrebuilds2]

Had to come back and say thanks, it fixed my touch screen. Took me about 1.5 hours lol but not too shabby, greetings from Arizona 🏜️

[@tedharris9769]

Thanks for the video. It was the best example of diy that I have seen. Clear an understandable for anyone who knows how to follow simple instructions. The only thing I will do different is try it before I put everything back together. Excellent video 👍👍

[@FixiT-Rick]

Appreciate your kind words!

[@Law_Abiding_Citizen_ok]

And try to take out top vents properly ( by latching little tabs inside the vents first) and not so it looks like you done it with a chainsaw 🙄

[@umartoad6751]

@@Law_Abiding_Citizen_ok hey bro looking to do the job myself soon did you find any success yourself?

[@umartoad6751]

And how long did it realistically take? Thanks bro much appreciated

[@Miata.R]

Thanks man! Made that easy

[@FixiT-Rick]

Glad it helped!

[@Drewicitoz]

The ending ❤ subscribed god bless you man

[@FixiT-Rick]

God Bless YOU, Andrew! ✝️

[@lpaper]

thx man, just done mine already

[@FixiT-Rick]

Sweet!

[@coripatoreo]

Knowing your Love for Jesus Christ makes me enjoy your DIY replacement video even more! Your video makes it look so easy! I have a 2010 IS250 and everything worked until a couple of days ago! I am hoping and praying it will fix itself because it is unavailable for my year and can't afford to take it to have it replaced!

[@FixiT-Rick]

Thank you for your kind words! Getting that glass off with a blade is the hardest part, but just go slow with it and you should be fine. God bless!

[@siahx1]

thank you

[@MatteoTodd]

Will this work on my 2011 lexus is 350? Same part?

[@eddiegarcia8674]

Awesome video thank you mine works awsome

[@FixiT-Rick]

Eddie, You ROCK! 🔥

[@jrebuilds2]

I’m gonna have to do this on mine lol.

[@CorbinImgrund]

This worked for me

[@alexandarmarantidis6831]

Hi mate! Thanks for the great video!! I live in Austria but ordered the touch-screen linked in the description. It works great but the only thing is that there is ´´rainbow´´ effect. Nevertheless I am definitely happy with it! :)

[@FixiT-Rick]

Awesome, glad to hear the touch screen is working. As far the rainbow effect, has the plastic layer been removed from the touchscreen?

[@alexandarmarantidis6831]

@@FixiT-Rick Yes I did remove the safety foil from both sides.

[@grrrpow4595]

My screen works whenever I touch it and has full functionality. My issue is the screen looks glitched and like it’s broken. There aren’t any cracks I can see but I just wanted to know if replacing the digitizer would solve my issue.

[@FixiT-Rick]

Sounds like the digitizer might need to be replaced. I would replace it.

[@DaneDuPlessis]

In the absence of any physical damage to the digitiser, isn't simply re-seating the ribbon cable a possible fix? Digitisers are expensive.

[@Avery-fb1yq]

Would this work on a 2007 gs350 that has the same type of screen?

[@FixiT-Rick]

I looked it up. Yes, this will work on a 2007 gs350.

[@PSG127]

Great video!!!! I have 2008 GS460.... Process should be close I imagine, what do you think???

[@FixiT-Rick]

Worth a shot! Make sure the digitizer screen from Amazon fits that car model.

[@chinoar1593]

Do you know what the dark blue plug is for on top? Mine wasn’t plugged in and I can’t find the plug

[@FixiT-Rick]

Interesting. I did see extra plugs, might be for maintenance

[@Sully-K]

That's only if you have Mark Levinson. So if you don't have it, don't worry about the blue plug.

[@1_boosted_srt365]

You think it’s similar procedure for ls430?

[@FixiT-Rick]

Digitizer screens are usually all the same. They all have ribbon cables for power and communication. Make sure that you select the digitizer that is designed for your car.

[@tiendasdegreenacrees8794]

can u please help me i did everything but now all the buttons from the climate all of them dont work the screen does work now but climate map and all of those buttons dont work no more can u please help me pls

[@FixiT-Rick]

Sounds like a loose connection at the ribbon cable or maybe something is still touching the screen?

[@slippin9851]

Dude my digitizer was starting to go and had lots of issues I remember trying to fix it one day and I tapped it a little too hard and wow those things are so brittle the whole thing spiderwebbed. I’ve been needing this video so bad cause dealership said they will only replace the whole system I was like hell no they were charging $3k

[@FixiT-Rick]

Just as a reference, the digitizer still works to this day!

[@PauliusKarvelis]

Did you tried to calibrate? Before changing ?

[@FixiT-Rick]

No, because calibration improves where you touch the screen to turn things on. The screen itself was defective because it was changing the radio stations without touching anything.

[@82ccraig]

Work for a 2007 Lexus is250? Also does this have the rainbow effect on screen?

[@FixiT-Rick]

Yes this replacement is designed for 2006 - 2009 Lexus and the model is250. Here is the link: amzn.to/3aGpekY

[@grrrpow4595]

My screen also has a rainbow, glitch effect. Did replacing the digitizer fix ur issue?

[@82ccraig]

I did not have the rainbow effect.

[@waelkhali]

Amazing job! How long did it take you?

[@FixiT-Rick]

Thanks Wael! Took a few hours.

[@82ccraig]

Does it have the rainbow effect that some aftermarket digitizer were having issues with??

[@FixiT-Rick]

Haven’t had any issues since it’s been replaced.

[@82ccraig]

@@FixiT-Rick so no rainbow looking colors on screen. If that’s the case then I’m sold as it’s hard to find a aftermarket one that doesn’t do that!

[@FixiT-Rick]

I replaced this for a friend and she said no color issues.

[@Kiarrajayla]

Hello! I tried every single thing you did, ordered the exact digitizer, put everything back in its place & for some reason mine did not come on :( I don’t know where I went wrong or if it could be a different issue? Please let me know

[@FixiT-Rick]

Great job so far Kiarra! Make sure the little ribbon cable is all the way in. I believe there might be a little flap that holds it in place. I would look for those two things.

[@Kiarrajayla]

Thank you so much for responding! I’m going to take it apart again & see if I pushed the ribbon cable all the way in, the bigger one was easy, but the little small one was a challenge. I will be back to let you know!! 🙏🏽

[@FixiT-Rick]

Yeah that ribbon cable can be tricky. It’s delicate and is the most important step in replacing the digitizer screen. Great job! 👏

[@Kiarrajayla]

Hey Rick! So the last week or two my screen has been randomly COMING ON & allowing me to click through the map but then it suddenly glitches out & shuts off?! Can it be electrical ? I don’t think it’s a fuse, but I’m thinking maybe a wire needs to be replaced ? It’s driving me crazy!

[@victorramos4336]

Goodjob but Damn you really messed up those edges with that prying tool 😂😂

[@FixiT-Rick]

Thanks for watching the video!

[@mrjohndoe6981]

I followed through with this, but at the end after plugging in everything as it was. The screen didn’t turn on, nor did the ac buttons work. The clock, radio and nobs still worked tho.

[@FixiT-Rick]

Might be a blown fuse.

[@mrjohndoe6981]

@@FixiT-Rick Do you think so? I did the entire process while the car was off. Also would you know if there is a any specific fuse that controls the cars screen and ac?

[@FixiT-Rick]

@mrjohndoe6981 It’s always something small that stops a device from working. Loose connections or blown fuses are very common. I believe you can certainly find the issue!

[@ebubeokorafor-nwosu4152]

I did this and my screen started working but my radio wasn’t working after I put my screen back. And yes, I put everything back in place

[@FixiT-Rick]

The radio cable might not be in all the way.

[@Itsredbaron]

I broke my center cent as carful as i was 🤦🏿‍♂️🤦🏿‍♂️🤦🏿‍♂️

[@theedgar1959]

Nice message ✝️

[@FixiT-Rick]

✝️🙏

[@ronthemogul]

Ever had a screen not turn on after this replacement?

[@FixiT-Rick]

Only something small would stop that from happening. The digitizer screen must be connected properly in order to turn on.

[@ronthemogul]

@@FixiT-Rick yea I got it to turn on but the touch doesn’t work 😩

[@FixiT-Rick]

I would pull the ribbon out carefully then put it back in. Sometimes, ribbon cables need to fit just right into place.

[@magamagaphoenix1211]

Many thanks! Got it done without issue, just go slow…

[@FixiT-Rick]

Slow way is always the fast way!

[@user-pg7mt8uo9i]

my screen didn’t turn on 😭

[@FixiT-Rick]

Did your screen have power before removing it?

[@valeriewhitaker6386]

New digitizer didn’t work… now what

[@FixiT-Rick]

There’s a little “door” that holds the ribbon cable from the digitizer, I would make sure that door is securely closed. It basically is what’s holding the ribbon cable in place.

[@xdshubaccashu_974]

Replaced digitizer, still doesn’t register when the screen is being touched. Would resetting the system help with this? I’m not sure what other issue it could be.

[@FixiT-Rick]

Loose connection at the digitizer would be a good place to look.
