    ATTENTION Canon Touch Screen Digitizer FIX

    Hey Guys,
    I did a LOT of reading up on how these screens keep failing

    It is the conductive bond to the glass that breaks down.
    The glass is very temp reactive with cold and hot.

    After a time this bond will "slip" and detach slightly.

    to fix this fast and will last is to heat each side evenly "HOT to the touch"

    Like a those cheap oil filled "fin" heaters or careful with a heat gun.


    Heat 1 side at a time to "HOT" to the touch..... NO FLAMES.
    Then quickly press firmly and evenly on a flat cold surface until cool.
    repeat this on all 4 sides !

    Did this on several screens this evening.

    Every one of them then worked!


    Cost of repair...........ZERO !

    I will always give what I got to help out guys
    This ones a keeper!
