Apple iPad 1 Wifi Installing Ambient Light Sensor

Step 1 - Display Assembly

We are currently working on a better
method to open the iPad. This method will
open the iPad, but will almost certainly
result in broken retaining clips.

Insert a metal spudger between the top edge of the
display assembly and the rear panel assembly.

Rotate the spudger away from you to release the tabs
along the top edge of the display.

Insert a second metal spudger between the top edge of
the display assembly and the rear panel assembly to
keep the tabs from snapping back into place.

Step 2

With one spudger, work your way along the right edge
of the iPad, releasing tabs as you go.

Step 3

Lift the display assembly away from the rear panel
assembly by its right edge.

Do not attempt to remove the display at this
time, as it is attached to the rear panel
assembly.

Step 4

In the following steps, you will disconnect the three
cables attaching the display assembly to the logic
board. The cables are for the following components:

Digitizer

Ambient Light Sensor

Display Data Cable
