Hi ive just been given a Wii U but it has a problem with the screen on the Game pad

The touchscreen still works but cannot see anything to access the system menus

So i took it apart took the lcd ribbon out and put it back in to see if it made a difference

I dont know if the lcd ribbon connectors are corroded see pic

It did now i dont get anything on it

When i turn the pad on it goes blue and it will power on the wii u but then goes orange straight away while plugged in

Nothing on the screen its blank also when charging it stays orange even when ive unplugged it

Any ideas?

Cheers

(a) Welcome to the forums Sorry to read about your trouble.

(b) This is a family-friendly site, so we ask that you don't use profanity, even the partially censored kind.

(c) I've never opened up my gamepad so can't help you, but corroded pins seems unlikely unless there are any other signs of moisture having got into the unit. Good luck with it.

You guys had me at blood and semen.

Have you tried contacting Nintendo and setting up a repair?
