How to repair the iPad Mini 4 when it doesn't turn on, the volume doesn't work, or doesn't respond

[iPad Mini 4 power button replacement, volume button replacement STEP 1]: There aren't many buttons on the iPad, but it's an explodemethod that works when the power and volume buttons fail.
Both parts need to remove the liquid crystal, but since the liquid crystal is fixed with double-sided tape, heat is applied to the red part and peeled off.
If you can add heat, it will be easier to work with suction cups, vacuum lifters, etc.
It is not difficult as a decomposition if you can remove even the liquid crystal, so please try to challenge!

[iPad Mini 4 power button replacement, volume button replacement STEP 2]: If you can float the liquid crystal even a little, the work efficiency will be improved if you try to insert a pick etc. into the gap, but please be careful because there is a possibility that you will break the screen if you try to push it forcibly.

[iPad Mini 4 power button replacement, volume button replacement STEP 3]: When the liquid crystal floats to some extent, it is possible to lift it like an image, and be sure to lift it from the top (camera side) at this time.
In addition, there is a home button and cable relationship on the lower side, but the home button of the iPad Mini 4 has fingerprint authentication, so please be careful because you will never be able to use fingerprint authentication again if you break it by any chance.
Even if you break it by any chance and perform a home button exchange, the function of fingerprint authentication is paired with the main body side, so you can only use the "normal button" without fingerprint authentication.

[iPad Mini 4 power button replacement, volume button replacement STEP 4]: It is a scene seen from the front by causing a liquid crystal.
Because there is a connector of the liquid crystal in the lower right part, I will decompose it.

[iPad Mini 4 power button replacement, volume button replacement STEP 5]: There are three red frames in total, but the leftmost side is the connector of the battery, so please remove it first.
It is a way to remove, but you can easily remove it by using the tool (plastic) and lifting it upward from the bottom.
If you can remove the connector of the battery, let's remove the connector on the liquid crystal side (middle, right side) in the same manner.

[iPad Mini 4 power button replacement, volume button replacement STEP 6]: Now it was possible to separate the body side and the liquid crystal side.

[iPad Mini 4 power button replacement, volume button replacement STEP 7]: The power button is located in the back of the rear camera, so you need to remove the rear camera first.
The connector on the rear camera is under the iron plate, but the red black cushion is peeled off upward first.

[iPad Mini 4 power button replacement, volume button replacement STEP 8]: Because the screw is hidden under the black cushion of the previous, two screws that secure the plate are removed.
Then, please keep it because the plate also come off at the same time.

[iPad Mini 4 power button replacement, volume button replacement STEP 9]: Under the plate is a rear camera connector, which is removed from the bottom to the top using the tool as shown in the image.

[iPad Mini 4 power button replacement, volume button replacement STEP 10]: If it is possible to remove the connector of the previous, It will continue to break the main body side, but it is slightly stiff because it is fixed with a part bond around the body.

[iPad Mini 4 power button replacement, volume button replacement STEP 11]: The power supply part has come into view, but the yellow frame connector becomes the connector of the power supply, so it will be lifted from the bottom to the top and removeit.
In addition, there are two small screws in the red part, so remove both.
Since the cable part on the way is only fixed with double-sided tape, it is possible to peel off easily.

[iPad Mini 4 power button replacement, volume button replacement STEP 12]: I was able to remove the power button.

[iPad Mini 4 power button replacement, volume button replacement STEP 13]: Next, it becomes a volume button, but the connector is in the red frame part.
If you can remove the screw, the plate will also come off, so please keep it.

[iPad Mini 4 power button replacement, volume button replacement STEP 14]: Let's remove the tool because there is a connector when it is possible to remove the iron plate!

[iPad Mini 4 power button replacement, volume button replacement STEP 15]: The volume cable is attached to double-sided tape, but it can be easily peeled off.
If you can peel off the cable, there are screws inside, so let's remove all!
You can remove the volume switch if you try to break the black plate.

[iPad Mini 4 power button replacement, volume button replacement STEP 16]: I was able to remove the volume button.
