Ipad 2 screen - black slow wipe to side

Block Image



Hey Guys,


Ipad 2, old model and not in warranty. All of a sudden the screen stopped working and instead has this weird wiping motion across the screen. No colours, just black and white.


I am not aware of it being dropped.


Assuming a screen and digitizer replacement?

Is this a good question?

Thanks. We only use the ipads for running pictures slide shows so we don't really need new ones. Used ones work fine ( when the screen is not broken :) )

Most likely the lcd has gone bad, but to be honest the iPad 2nd generations are getting pretty old and slow. It may just be best to get a new one or a newer used one.
