Navall 2 Replacement touch screen
I have at last managed to devote some time to tracking down a source for replacement digitiser screens. I will see if I can find a more local supplier but have ordered one up for myself. The screen is available here.
I would advise anyone considering ordering one to drop the front off the Nav' and verify the part number is the same. It is clearly visable once the sticky tape is peeled back a little. I have posted an image for anyone unsure. Last edited by Ennine; 1st May 2018 at 08:39.. Reason: updated |

I'm not sure how many screens have failed, nor how many owners would want to tackle replacing it, but if any interest is shown I will endeavour to put together a How to, strip down and replace video but only if there is a need. Otherwise I shall just swap mine out when the new one arrives.

It might be worth it, I imagine it's the same procedure (or similar) no matter which model of Navall it is.
If nothing else we now know that screens are obtainable |

Hi Nige, I took my non working Nav 2 out and decided to put the Symphony back in. If it is not to difficult and you get yours to work then I would be interested in a few notes, tips EtC. Don`t go overboard though just for me

Hi Ken, I have recorded a strip down and once the new screen arrives I intend to record the screen swap and unit reassembly. I decided that was a sensible route to take for anyone wanting to tackle the job and needing insight into what is involved. Obviously I'll be more than happy to answer any questions that I can and I'll post progress on this thread. The screen has been dispatched and cost £17, delivery estimate is 15 days from order. We will know how viable the repair is after that.

Well for £17 and some faffing around if it gets it working again I'd be more than happy to be honest!

If you manage to remove the screen from the packaging without scratching your head at least once, you pass the first test !!! |

Please to let anyone else contemplating a screen replacement , thanks to Ennine's excellent and easy to follow You Tube link above I took the old screen out and installed the new replacement................putting the whole unit back in the car tomorrow..................will advise if the effort was worth it.
One thing I cant believe is how delicate and fragile the touch screens are, strongly suggest to all Navall owners treat them very gently. Update due tomorrow evening.

All fitted back in the car, powered up and back to normal operation.
If anyone else doubts their ability to replace their Navall 2 screens think again. I am pleased I decided to have a go and succeed thanks to Ennine's video and link to replacements screens.
