iPad dead?

Clo-Clo

I have an iPad, was working fine and now just reboots to the apple logo. Hasn't been dropped and is in a heavy duty case.

I have connected to Mac and tried to reset, it said it was doing but would reboot the iPad and then fail. Now Im getting a 4103 error which I think means the board is fried on the iPad?

Anything I can do to resurrect it? thanks

Which iPad? Age? OS?

iPad 6, 2018, whatever the latest OS is probably on it, I just normally update when they arrive

Google 'iPad DFU restore mode' and follow the instructions.

Likely a hardware fault and will either need to be repaired or disposed of unfortunately.

I assume you have googled 4013 iPad errors.

Yeah I was thinking so but posted here in the hope it could be resurrected.

The price to fix would cost more than replacing with a refurbed device

Might sound stupid but did you try using a different cable?

It’s a disgrace apple are getting away with this crap of soldering key components to the logic board to make them almost impossible to repair.

Also, try plugging into a charger (not a PC/Mac via a wall outlet) and hard reset. Hold the home button + sleep/wake button for 25~ seconds together.
