Different LCD Ribbon Connector Type

Hello every one,

Ref: iPod Video 5th gen 30GB (A1136) and iPod Classic 80GB (A1238).

Question: Have anyone realized iPod Video and iPod Classic LCD ribbon connectors are NOT identical?

Story: So I've purchased 2 LCD panels for my iPods from one of the online stores. The seller confirmed the LCD should work on iPod Video and Classic and I've received 2 identical LCDs few days ago. iPod Classic accepted the new LCD ribbon connector and its working properly. But the ribbon cable connector on iPod Video 30GB's logic board seems just a little smaller than iPod Classic hence I'm unable to connect the new LCD to the logic board of iPod Video 30GB. It seems both iPod Video and iPod Classic LCD connectors on logic board are identical (visual inspection).

I've checked all over internet for iPod Video LCD with different keywords but all listings comes as generic LCD for 30, 60, 80, 120GB ipods. Anyways I'm willing to spend another 20ish $$ for the right part.

Can anyone have similar experience? Know a place to buy this online?

Many thanks.

Sammy.

@samy7b9 the iPod Classic and iPod Video do not share the same LCD. They are different and cannot be interchanged. The connectors are not the same.

As in where to buy it, that will depend on where you are located. You can usually find them on ebay or Amazon, just make sure that you do not look for iPod Classic but you need to look for iPod Video (5th Gen) LCD.

Hi oldturkey03,

Thanks alot for your reply. Honestly this was my first time I've replaced the iPod LCD panel.

The LCD ribbon cable connectors on both iPods (video and classic) are really similar. Looks identical and the seller has confirmed it as well. But apparently it's not.

I'll search for iPod video LCD again.

Thanks for your reply once again.

Best regards and greetings from new Zealand.
