Have one of these in for reported problems. Have resolved most. I'm
aware the early units have a common display issue; in that a unwanted
line or lines appear on the display. Does anyone know, exactly, the
root cause of the problem. Some insight may help formulate a less
costly repair procedure. The display is a flourescent type display.
I'm quite versed on display faults [and repair techniques] related to
LED/LCD type screen displays. I've not dealt with this particular
problem, till now. Replacement displays are cost prohibitive.
Especially if the problem lies elsewhere, other than the actual display
part.

I have heard that kenwood either will change the display or send you the
part for free.
Don' remember which but call them!
Good Luck, 73

as i understand it, the adhesive between the ribbon cable and the lcd itself and the cable and the pcb is contaminated and needs to be removed and replaced with a conductive adhesive as used in the ribbon cable repair in ipod touches


I will be trying this method soon, lining back up the cable i think will be the bigest task aside from removing the cable without damage.

And the post you replied to is from May 21, 2009.

WHoever posted is long gone by now. Don't reply to old messages, even if
google buggishly allows it. They need to fix that.

If you want to discuss an issue, start a new thread, rather than resurrect
an old one. Nobody knows what you are talking about (you didn't even
quote the message you are replying to), and the only reason I know what's
going on is because people replying to old posts via google is now an
ongoing problem.

yes, I'm posting this three years after you posted yours, but I'm wondering if you had any success ??
