    Thank you so much. Just fixed my cam!

    There is more to it than shown here. You must remove the circuit board from the back of the old LCD screen, unplug those ribbon cables, transfer the circuit board to the new screen, and plug in the cables.

Where can I buy a replacement LCD screen?

Joshua Almeida - crwdns2934203:0crwdne2934203:0

You don't show the final part taking the glass away from outer and the board, as the screen replacements don't come with connector board

@josollis: Thanks for the hint! I got the missing info from the E-P5 LCD exchange instructions (on ifixit).

Stephan Fagerer - crwdns2934203:0crwdne2934203:0

I have reassembled the unit after replacing the broken Ribbon, however my LCD images are inverted in normal mode not selfie mode. Do anyone know why ?

Thanks in advance

ah to lee - crwdns2934203:0crwdne2934203:0
