Tutorial: iPhone 7 Backlight Failure Repair


What are the characteristics of iPhone 7 backlight failure? According to our maintenance experience, we will encounter some common situations, such as iPhone touch screen does not show, the screen light is dim or can not adjust brightness. In this article, we will introduce how to repair iPhone 7 backlight failure step by step.


At first, we connect WUXINJI Dongle to check iPhone 7 backlight power supply schematic diagram. 

By reading the iPhone schematic diagram, we know that the iPhone backlight boost IC output three sets of backlight power supply signals, they were PP_LCM_BLANODE (16.5V Cathode Voltage), PP_LCM_BL_CAT1 and PP_LCM_BL_CAT2, these three circuit signals are sent to the display interface via three inductors respectively, the pictures as follows. 
 
The three inductors are easy to damage, and then cause iPhone to have no backlight or light instability, sometimes bright, but sometimes not bright. In this case, we can repair it through short connections.

If there is no backlight on iPhone 7, use the fluke 15B+ digital multimeter to measure the diode data of the PPYLCMCYBLYCAT1, PPYLCMYBLY anode (backlight anode power) and PPYLCMYBLYCAT2, and put it under the stereo zoom microscope to check the short connection on the three inductors, if their work is good, they It can be repaired by replacing the iPhone backlight to boost the IC.

iPhone 6 Display Failure after Replacing LCD

The iPhone 6 display is black after replacing LCD. After checking, the diode data of display socket is normal and all power supply for iPhone display IC  output is normal. Testing by  DC power supply , we find the iPhone current is abnormal. When press the iPhone power button, the boot current is obviously large. The current reached 100mA when press the power button. After remove the display tube, the current still the same, which means there is a short circuit. Measure the voltage output of each circuit of power supply with Fluke 15B+ Digital Multimeter , then surprised to find that there are really short circuit places. LD010 is short circuit; we suspect that the filter capacitance on the circuit has been penetrated. After remove the iPhone power control IC , we found it is ground short circuit. Open the WUXINJI Dongle  to check the iPhone schematic circuit, we found that this circuit is the display card image transmission MIPI data bus power supply. CPU brea...

Solution: iPhone X Won't Turn On

According to the customer's description, the iPhone X would not turn on after it drop accidentally. Then the cell phone reports error 56 when restore it. How did this happen? Let's test and repair step by step. Since iPhone X motherboard 2 layers are connected through the middle column, the solder points are very easy to get dropped. so we guess that the solder points from NFC chip to the CPU part have fell off. Disassemble the iPhone X by iPhone opening tools , remove the upper board off the main board, when separate the main board we see there is a row of points have fell off. Check the location map on WUXINJI dongle , it is surrounded by a ground wire, in fact, there are 6 useful points dropped. The ground wire does not need to be filled, the 6 useful points are added by professional phone welding tools. These are the signal wires of the NFC chip, so the iPhone X would report error 56. Then the tin of the middle column is repaired by iPhone X BGA reballing ste...

Guide: iPhone 7 Plus Camera Fault Repair

iPhone camera failure is common for most of cell phone repair technicians, today, we're going to fix iPhone 7 Plus camera. According to the holder's description, the front small camera is normal while the rear camera fails to take photos, when turn on it, the iPhone 7 shows black screen. Let's start from easy repair operation: directly replace the iPhone camera to have a test.  Note: Pay attention that two camera are connected together. When disassemble the iPhone 7P rear camera , you need to pry up from the left side.  The fault is same as before after replacing a new rear camera. We tested before, the iPhone 7P double camera is rely on the bigger camera to get image, as shown in 15-5-1, the corresponding part on iPhone 7P motherboard is J4501 pin, the resistance value is normal after testing with Fluke 15B+ digital multimeter , it reminds of us that iPhone6 Plus also encountered this phenomenon, the power supply part has some problem. By checking on  WUXINJ...
