Damaged pins when putting in lcd.
Hi guys I hope you can help.I was replacing the battery. All seems good but when I went to insert the screen I think I have damaged the pins. Can this be fixed?
Is this a good question?

The bent pin can usually be straightened, but the spacing between them often doesn't allow enough room to use pliers. I found by choosing or turning a rod
that fits between the pins and drilling a hole to match the pin diameter, I can push the pin straight. If the pin has a sharp bend, slide the tool up to the bend, then straighten it before you slide the tool all the way.
You could probably have a simple one made for a couple of dollars.
