    I have a sword and shield edition and replacing the LCD screen cost more than half of the cost of getting a second hand switch lite. I am thinking of doing it myself and this video helps a lot. Never thought I could do the repair from the front side to avoid removing all the parts. Thanks for the video!

    Do you have to use an adhesive to stick the digitizer to the LCD? Or does it just sit in place?
    I know the digitizer needs adhesive to stick to the shell, but can't find any info about securing the LCD to the digitizer.

    • @TapticDigital
      @TapticDigital  3 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Nope, no adhesive needed there. The pressure of the digitizer will hold the LCD in the shell on its own

    Hi. What’s the Amazon link for the LED display? Can you help with the part code ?

    • @TapticDigital
      @TapticDigital  5 หลายเดือนก่อน

      I’m not too sure as I didn’t buy this from Amazon. As long as it’s an LCD listed for the Switch Lite it should work just fine, to my knowledge they’ve never made changes to the LCD part.

    Do you need to apply new thermal paste before reassembling the switch?

    • @TapticDigital
      @TapticDigital  3 หลายเดือนก่อน

      I usually like to replace it. Some I open still have very soft thermal paste that isn’t dried out, it can be reused. Otherwise it’s best to clean and replace

      Sounds like either a bad screen, or something isn’t fully connected.

    How much did it cost for everything, like the tools, the new screen, and any other materials needed? If it cost less to repair this way then buy a new one then HECK YEA I'll probably try this

    • @TapticDigital
      @TapticDigital  4 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Hmm. Screen was about $40, screwdriver set was $15, double sided tape probably about $10, let’s call it $100 total to factor in shipping.

  • @justinw9982
    @justinw9982 4 หลายเดือนก่อน

    What size tesa tape? I see 1mm and 2 mm rolls and thats not a big difference. Thank you for the video. Ubreakifix said $300 plus to fix. Screen stopped working after I replaced the joysticks.

    • @TapticDigital
      @TapticDigital  4 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Ubreak is crazy for that, sounds like they just don’t want to work on it. Definitely try reseating the screen cables before fully replacing, and test the new display before installing! Grab 2mm tape, I rarely use the 1 as it’s almost too thin to hold anything.

      You can cut a line into the screw with a grinding tool and use a flathead to remove it, or look into precision screw extractors
