Navigating the Challenge of a Broken FPC Port on Your Surface Tablet 4

If you’re someone who enjoys tackling DIY tech repairs, you know that sometimes patience can be a challenge, especially when working with delicate devices like the Microsoft Surface Tablet 4. Recently, while attempting to replace the LCD screen, I encountered a frustrating issue: I accidentally damaged the FPC (Flexible Printed Circuit) port responsible for the touch functionality.

Now, I find myself at a crossroads and could use some guidance. My immediate question is: where can I source a replacement for this crucial component? Should I consider purchasing a broken device to salvage the part, or are there alternative routes for acquiring a new FPC port?

I would greatly appreciate any insights or recommendations on where to find this specific port or advice on the best practices for handling similar repairs in the future. Your expertise could save me a lot of time and effort!

In Summary: If you have experience with sourcing replacement parts for Surface devices or know of reputable suppliers, I’d love to hear your suggestions!
