I have an Ipod nano 4th generation with a non working display. On releasing the ZIF connnector I found the screen ribbon had corrosion damage on a couple of the contacts(inside the connector.) I’m a bit surprised at this because this stuff is gold plated. One piece of track had completely disappeared. Does anyone know a way of repairing this or is it a scrap mainboard? Update (09/24/2010) Thanks for the suggestion but the damage is on the plug part,(ribbon attached to the mainboard) The display has the socket half. I remembered a good many years ago using some conductive silver paint. Have been able to get hold of some so will give it a try. will just have to make the smallest possible blob with a toothpick, then scratch the print away with a fine sewing needle.
u can buy a new lcd display and replace it
