Hi everyone I have a small faint dark spot on my iPad Air 2 screen. That was unfortunately caused by me accidentally tearing a tiny bit of a cable coating open. A cable like this:
This open cable then burnt/heated up a small spot on the aluminium back panel of the LCD. Which now resulted into this faint dark, barely visible, spot on the screen. I now covered that open spot up, so it won’t cause any more damage. It’s hard to capture this on camera, but you can still see it.
My question now is simple: Can I do anything to fix/smooth out this spot, so it disappears? Without having to replace the whole LCD? Appreciate all the help, thanks in advance. :-) New images:
The cable you refer to in the image is the WiFi antenna…there is no “voltage/current” going through this that could cause any damage as far as I’m aware. Is there a brun mark on the back of the LCD that corresponds to the black spot? You’re LCD problem may just be coincidental to the antenna issue. It is rather hard to see the spot on the image. Normally, “pressure marks” are white, I can’t say I have ever seen a dark spot in the middle of the screen. Still, I would leave the screen laying only loosely on the frame to see if the spot goes away. Otherwise, leaving the screen on full intensity for a day or two might be beneficial.
