Honeywell CM927 LCD screen fail - common?

I have a CM927 which is a couple of years old.
Individual cells in the LCD screen are starting to fail - still usable at
the moment but a bit disconcerting.
Google gives a mixed picture.
Some posters say they have had loads of failures.
Others say they have never had a problem.
Anyone here had the problem with a CM927 - either own or supplied to
others?
More importantly, have you had more than one fail?
Cheers

work?
There are two common ways the LCD could be connected to the PCB.
A ribbon cable bonded to the glass,
or a clamp arrangement with a zebrastripe rubber connector sandwiched
between.
The latter type often can be cleaned up successfully.
I've not had much success with the bonded type.

Strip the unit and remove the circuit board (just a few plastic clips, no
screws). Remove the LCD assembly from the circuit board (more plastic
clips and an eight pin push connection). Removed the LCD unit from the
clear plastic housing (more plastic clips). Finally heat up the plastic
ribbon where it is stuck to the circuit board (hair dryer will do trick)
and then firmly press it onto the circuit board... probably worth doing
this several times; in effect you are remating the ribbon to the circuit
board by softening the adhesive. Put it all back together and it should be
working again.

I wonder if that will work for the ribbon cable that is unreliable on

the LCD disply of our microwave. Several tracks are "broken" but if
you ramp up the humidity they work. This is a flat ribbon that splits
and is bonded to both sides of the glass of the LCD itself with a
rather sharp bend along the edge of the glass.

The manufacturer seems to have made it less than rugged from your
description. Reall for the need of a few more clips instead of glue it
probably means many people are binning them.

correctly.
The replacement has just failed , screen has some minor defects . More
importantly the target temp can only be set in 5 degree steps , e.g. to 20 or
25 , and the room temperature is indicating 35 - clearly wrong. I've tried a
factory reset but no improvement.

£90 every two years!

Found new one on Amazon for £50+ and was simple to replace the main
component with the new one, which clipped on to the base wiring frame
on the wall.
The CM927 looks a more expensive system, though. Good hunting!

My thanks as well -- I have fixed a CM907, which seems to have the same
display, using this method. The only thing I'd add is that most of the "thick
white pad" is perspex and I think is the backlight for the display. The real
issue is the thin white plastic sheet between it and the circuit board. You
can't take off the backlight completely, since it's soldered to the board, but
you can lift it up from one end enough to get at the plastic film and reset
that by itself.
Interestingly I've recently had the same issue with an old laptop display.
Does this mean that the ribbon cable is not actually soldered to the board,
but simply held in place by glue?

Coming back to a very old post.
I have followed the instructions and got to the point where the PCB is out of the clear plastic cover.
I now have two main parts - the screen with a ribbon cable coming out of one side and the PCB.
However the PCB has a thick white foam backing with thin plastic behind it which in turn is soldered to a couple of pins on the PCB.
This covers the side of the PCB where the ribbon cable attaches. At first look it doesn't seem easy/safe to try and remove this and the foam to get at the PCB where the ribbon cable attaches.
So is this a different variant from the one described, or do I heat the green side of the PCB opposite where the ribbon cable is attached underneath?

Found a link in the discussion to
<https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W4LxHn5Y_l4&t=189s>
which shows that you do have to lever off the white pad and swing it back
on the soldered connections.
Will give that a go in a bit.

One issue I have heard about here is that often failures occur where the
unit is located in the sun or in a very hot position. Still it sounds like a
bit more environmental testing needed on their units before they sell them!

I have had about 6 of these over the years. All went the same way , digits
disappearing. I have used the hairdryer trick once and it worked for a few
months but then failed again! I have abandoned this model now (had the same
problem with an earlier CM67 too) and installed a hive system. There is a bit
of a market for faulty units on ebay which is handy.
