Nabi 2 Screen Replacement

Introduction

Before beginning this guide we recommend following our Nabi 2 back cover removal guide.

This guide will walk you through the steps of replacing a cracked or otherwise non functioning screen on a Nabi 2. As the screen is glued to the front assembly, we recommend replacing the entire display assembly.

Be sure to use caution when releasing the clips that secure the display ribbon cables. Use a plastic spudger and push directly out, do not pry up on the clips, they will break.
