[QUOTE="bargsbeer, post: 957739, member: 40137"] If your going to open it up check out iFixit.com they have some of the best Apple/Mac take apart guides. Removing the bottom screws will free up the display, Make sure you have a suction cup to pull up the display (don't use anything other than a suction cup!!) The home button is installed in the display you most likely won't need to remove it (home button) there is a small connector (check pic) There is a piece of flex cable that sticks out and rests on the logic board (check the pic two small terminals) sometimes in a fall,drop..etc that flex cable can move and become disconnected from the logic board. You most likely need to bend that flex cable back down so it rests on the logic board.
