I am just about done with the iPad 6 Wi-Fi Front Panel Assembly Replacement procedure. The LCD is screwed back in with the new touchscreen connected. I turned on the iPad to test the touchscreen (before final step of removing adhesive strips and securing touchscreen down). Home button works fine - iPad lights up and when I go to enter my code, the 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, and 0 all seem to work but the 1, 2, and 3 buttons do not respond to touch. “Delete” and “Cancel” text buttons both work. I am able to power down (by sliding across the top of the screen) fine. Tried a hard reboot but same issue persists. Is this a problem with the iFixit replacement screen or could there be another issue? Thanks.
Oh yeah I get this a lot with my iPad 6 screens just disconnect the screen cables and reseat them. For every one I do I plug them in two times to make sure. I’m not sure why but with first click in it sometimes has dead spots on touch but when I reseat it is all working fine. Make sure to push down a bit harder than usual on each ends to make sure they are fully clicked into connector.
