Introduction

This repair is best done in a clean, dust-free environment. The sensitive electronics inside the Nuvi 200W will not respond will to sand and other small particles. It is also important to leave yourself ample time to effectively navigate the screen removal process. It is extremely easy while doing this process to break one of the plastic retaining tabs. This will prevent your next screen from fitting properly.
