I’ve done the backlight filter replacement on ipad minis previously, but now I’ve got a mini 3 in with backlight issues, and I’m not sure where the filter and diode are on this model. I’ve identified a couple components (red arrows in pic) that could be the filter, but they don’t look burned like they typically do when they’re bad, and they both have continuity. I’ve also found a couple components that could be the diode (blue arrows), but neither of them has continuity either way. Can anyone help me out with where the diode and filter are on this thing?
Thanks!
On your image the filter is the first red/pink arrow on the left and the diode is the first blue on the left.
