I have a dead OLED (purple screen) and have seen that the original owner has ripped a capacitor (?) near the LCD display.
Does anyone know which part it is and maybe if there are spare parts on a 'normal' switch mainboard ?

Thats the connector for power/Volume +/- i doubt that this is the cause of the purple screen.

But the Part should be the same resitor as the two other ones that have the same config. Since these three are for power/and volume.

Thanks for the information - will have a look into that that guess you are right that the purple screen is not caused by the missing cap. Maybe a defective cap round the CPU, but not sure if I can measure them to identify if one of them is faulty.
