Replace your sony ereader screen

Replace your sony ereader screen
I bought myself a broken ereader from ebay. 

It worked but the screen was covered in lines and was barely readable.

This is the PRS 600 touch screen model and the touch screen was intact and working as far as I could discover.

First I downloaded a PDF of the service Manual which I found by searching for 
sony prs 600 service manual, there are lots of links and it should be free.
Then I took it apart to see how the screen goes in and to check it wasn't just loose connections.

I tried soft reset and hard reset (Sony describes these on its own site) just in case that solved the corrupt screen but didn't hold out much hope.

Step 1Getting a new screen

Getting a new screen
After looking on-line for the display for my model . PRS 600
It is model ED060SC4 and fits the 550 model also.
I decided that Ebay was going to be the route for obtaining a brand new screen.
I chose one with a good price ,the best feedback score and no dubious delivery  costs.
It took 8 days to get to the UK from China.
It arrived in a CD container ,enveloped in bubble wrap and inside,it was carefully sandwiched in foam.
