If the fingerprint reader on your Sony Xperia XZ2 Premium or Xperia XZ2 no longer wakes or unlocks the phone, the sensor flex cable is often the part at fault. This green replacement is made for both models.
What the fingerprint sensor flex does in the Xperia XZ2
The flex cable carries the signal from the fingerprint sensor to the main board. When it fails, the phone cannot read your finger, even though the rest of the screen and buttons still work. Fitting a new flex brings the sensor back to life.
This cable suits these models:
- Sony Xperia XZ2 Premium
- Sony Xperia XZ2
The package contains one green fingerprint sensor flex cable. Check that the colour matches the back of your phone before you buy.
Work slowly around the small connector near the sensor. It is thin and clips in with very little force, so line it up square before you press it down.
