I have installed a new charger port, Wi-Fi antana, and digitizer/front panel. They all work except the home button on the front panel. Before I reassembled the Ipad, I testsed two home buttons on the charger port probes but they didn’t work. Any ideas on whatelse could be wrong with the home button?
the home button signals through the charge port. if you replaced the charge port and the new port doesn’t have home button function, this is either damage to the connector on the board or a bad part. rule out bad part first. jessa
I have replaced the didgitiser on an iPad 2 after LCD flex swop out. Digitiser and Home button was all working fine before this. I’ve tried 2 brand new digitisers now but still the Home button refuses to be responsive. Connectors are fully seated. Now that Jessa has mentioned the signals goes through the charge port I will check that and hope to get this fixed. I haven’t changed the port. Will post back when I get a chance to examine it.
