Introduction

If you are considering replacing your screen because of unresponsiveness, refer to the DigiLand DL718M Troubleshooting page to find out what could be causing this problem and if it can be fixed without replacing the screen.

This process requires you to remove the back panel of the device and thus expose the motherboard. Be careful when working with an exposed motherboard as you could damage it, if it comes into contact with moisture. It is motion-sensitive, and small aspects can be easily jostled out of place.

Before you begin, make sure to power the tablet off completely and disconnect it from any external power source.
