Hello my Kindle Oasis switches on and the two buttons both allow me to scroll through the books I have. What I can’t now doe is to select anything on the screen as the touch screen is not working. Are you able to fix this and if so how much would it cost?
Thanks Kim

This is the solution:
Step 1 : Remove the kindle from it’s cover
Step 2 : Heat the screen up using a hair dryer
Step 3 : Test the touchscreen
If the touchscreen isn’t working, keep heating up the screen but make sure to not overheat it as it may cause the screen to leak or worse : the battery to explode.

This worked like a charm for me. After I heated it with the hair dryer I put it in my dehumidifying camera cupboard to remove any moisture. Now my Oasis works like new.
HI, I tried this also, and the touch screen worked brefly. But then it stoped again after minut or so. Is there mabye enyting else to try? Is there some place special to be treated with heat? Is the heat necessery to resolder something inside or?
Thanks

It can be fixed, generally happens when a digitizer fails on the device, but you can additionally attempt to hard reset it by doing these steps:
Hopefully that fixes it, cause unfortunately its not really worth the repair cost on a device of this value.
Have a great day,
Austin
