    ipad air 4th doesnt working touch

    Hi guys.
    My ipad air 4th doesnt working touch.
    I replaced display but cant fix it. I think the reason is mainboard.

    I can hear some noise sound at this parts (i upload the picture)
    It is shield so i cant check now.

    What is the reason? Bad cap is the reason that touch is not working?

    Mostly filter or so is blown, you change digitizer?

        What is the history of this iPad? Why was the display replaced?

        On at least one iPad model, the connection from the A10 CPU to the digitizer ic becomes disconnected at the BGA ball level. It is a well known pcba defect. The fix is to review the diode mode readings of the SPI bus connections used by the digitizer ic. The diode mode test will confirm if the SPI line is open or not between the CPU and the digitizer ic.

        Next, the A10 CPU has to be removed and reballed and then soldered back to fix this dry solder connection. Check some YouTube videos on this topic. We had a similar case with the ipad 7th gen. See the great video by Ayman in Egypt for the process details. We replaced the digitizer ic first and the touch did not return. Before this, we checked the diode mode readings of the digitizer ic.

        To date, we do not know if the A10 CPU used on the iphone is the same or not for the iPad. Lim in Malaysia has a video on the same fault and he briefly mentioned that if the A10 is replaced, then the serial number changes. No idea on how to fix this issue if the A10 CPU is replaced.

        Start with the simple check if loose inductors on the board. Post details on this iPad.

          iPad 7 2019 10.2 Touch Not Working
          by ApplePie14
          My ipad touch does not work.
          I have tried restoring it with 3utools, but I get error codes -6 and 1110issue at “Updating NAND Firmware”.
          I tried DFU mode and iTunes, but the same thing happened.
          Is the only solution to replace the NAND?​

          by obelix24
          Hi i have one Macbook Air 2020 where touch ID is not working (it's not scanning fingerprints). Touch ID was working before, there is no error message during scanning fingerprint it's just not scanning on screen you can see only fingerprint but there are no red updates as when it's working. Power button is working fine.

          I've checked boardview and also schematics but i'm not able to find anything related to TouchID ... i have similar issue on a2338 where there was problem with PP3V0_TOUCHID​ and after replacing UT610 it was working but here i'm not able to find anything related to...

          microsoft surface pro 5 touch screen not working
          by Gabriel Lucas
          Hello everyone, I bought a Microsoft Surface Pro 5 and the touch doesn't work. According to what the previous owner said, the screen stopped working after an update. The screen has no physical damage, and the touch works for 1 second when it turns on and then stops working. I've tried updating the drivers, formatting, and returning to factory defaults, but nothing worked. Can you help me?

          Thinkpad Yoga X380 Touch and Pen not working, shutdown leaves power indicator and fan on
          by badcappo
          Got a Thinkpad X380 Yoga with unknown history for cheap via ebay. Only screen was broken, rest working according to seller. As I had a another working screen from a donor X380 with a broken mainboard, I figured I could make a working Thinkpad from two broken ones. However after the screen swap the Touch and Pen feature still doesn't work, neither on Windows 11 nor in Linux (tested with various distros). Already transferred screen cables and BIOS EEPROMs to ensure it is not an issue with screen cabling or board software. Turning the machine off leaves the dan and power indicator light on, CPU remains...
