Trying to repair my old Motorola Xoom.
« on: January 06, 2015, 05:34:36 am »
About 3 months ago I noticed the screen on my tablet was completely dead. So i went inside a chip had went up in magic smoke but i have no idea what kind of chip it is, I want to buy a replacement chip to put in it so it can work again. Everything works besides the screen and i can plug it into  HDMI.

I see "(triangle)AY" across the front, and "V8" across the side in that picture.  Google doesn't get me anywhere though.

Well you have it in front of you and we have a blurry small picture.  Can you get a better picture maybe with macro mode and a bright light overhead?
