Replaced the screen that was cracking on my 2015 Mazda 3.

My mazda 2 somehow had tons of dust under the glass housing, can i open the glass frame to get rid of the dust without replacing it with the new one?
To everyone having trouble trying to get that metal bracket off that holds the plastic bezel to the actual screen. Move it to the left or right then pull back. Will pop right off.
Thanks for the video. It really helped prep me for the screen replacement.
Just to add to/reinforce the tips for anyone else ready to embark upon this journey.
– Leave the connectors attached to the back of the CMU
– Just take the four screws off the top to remove the screen from the CMU and the two connectors to the screen
– Be sure to disconnect the digitizer ribbon cable correctly (pull the white bit out and then up)
– Heat gun and a razor blade works wonders for removing the screen adhesive
Anyone got any links for good kits?
Adonde venden ese touch ?
Went ahead and did this while installing CarPlay today. This was a massive help. Like other commenters said, throwing the screen in the oven then using a box cutter to cut from the outside worked wonders for getting the broken glass out.
does this work for the 2017 mazda 3?
thanks for the great tut. Would appreciate it if you share the link for this exact screen so i get no surprises when i purchase it ๐
Is there a way to do his without taking the entire unit out of the dash? Could you heat up the adhesive and remove the glass and replace?
Can you tell me the name or type of kit you purchased from eBay? I have the exact same issues on my screen with the cracking and would like to replace the screen. Thanks.
Thanks for the walk-through! Just replaced my screen and this was very helpful. The worst part was getting that last metal bracket offโ those tabs were a pain.
How does it cracked?
How did it break?
great video, I would add that you can soak the plastic frame in hot water, then take a razor blade (or sharp pocket knife) to the adhesive. the adhesive seems to come off all in one strip more often when it's warm and soaked. I lost a 10mm bolt down my air vent though, full cost to repair at home was around 25 for a new screen on amazon and a new ratchet set which was around 40 dollars. took about three hours with the trip to home depot.
Not sure if it's been mentioned but when i did this backup camera wouldn't work. Before tearing it back apart i found you can do a hard reset on the screen by holding Mute + Nav + Back (the hand controls by shifter) button until when goes off.
You made it possible for me to save so much money by sharing your techniques! Thanks for creating this. I think it is the only one that shows the actual screen replacement.
this was a great guide, the only thing I did different was use a heat gun to soften adhesive and use a spudger.
I did this repair and now my screen wont turn on. I connected all the wires you did and triple checked. The radio music still plays but the screen is black and theres a high pitched noise coming from the radio. Does anyone know what I could've did wrong? ๐
Disheartening to see how many people are experiencing these random issues with their Mazda. You would think Mazda would correct this issue. 10/10 on this video! Thank you for creating it. ๐
Life saver! Thank you. I just finished mine, just because of your video it took me about an hour! Amazing. Thank you very much!
Looks like you punched the screen
Do any of you guys have an ebay link to this exact one?
