Autel MS906 Screen Replacement Steps:
Step 1: Disassemble the Back Shell
Using the Allen keys, remove the 10 bolts securing the back shell of the MS906.
Step 2: Disconnect Internal Components
Carefully release the secure-clips connecting the main board to the light sensor and the touch panel to the LCD screen. Once disconnected, separate the front shell from the back shell.
Step 3: Connect the New Screen Assembly
Connect the new front shell assembly, which includes the new touch panel and LCD screen, to the main board. Ensure the secure-clips are properly fastened for each connection. Pay close attention to the alignment of the connectors.
Connector Alignment:
Ensure the white line on the connector is as close as possible to the connection point before closing the secure-clip. This ensures a proper connection.
Troubleshooting: Screen Not Working After Replacement
If the touch screen isn’t responsive after reassembly, carefully disassemble the unit again and check the following:
- Connector Seating: Ensure all connectors are firmly seated and the secure-clips are fully closed. A loose connection can prevent the screen from functioning.
- Cable Damage: Inspect the connectors and cables for any signs of damage, such as bent pins or frayed wires.
- Alignment: Double-check the alignment of the screen assembly and ensure it sits flush within the housing. Misalignment can put pressure on components and cause malfunctions.
- De-resistance and Flashing: In some cases, you may need to perform a de-resistance procedure and then flash the device with the latest firmware. Consult Autel’s official documentation for detailed instructions on these advanced troubleshooting steps. This may require specialized tools and software.
