Hello Nonni5,


You can connect an iPad to an external monitor, however you can't connect it to a computer to use as a monitor.


Connect iPad to a display with a cable


If the screen is damaged, connecting it to an external monitor isn't really of benefit anyway since you would still need the screen to work to actually do anything on the iPad. The external monitor would just be stuck displaying the lock screen on the iPad if the touch is not functioning on it.


You can find available service options for iPad here: iPad Repair & Service


Cheers!
