i've just bagged myself a cheap secs monitor with a faulty display. it looks like it comes with the wiring harness witha white plug on the end. is there anything else i will need to fit it and does anyone have instructions???
if the screen is fudged where do i get areplacement and how dificult would it be to swap? i know it broken but it was very cheap so its got to be worth a gamble

 

no you have everything you need apart from a screen that works, you can buy them from rs supplies but i fitted one to mine and it never worked

it was a direct replacement same numbers etc but just dont work, i have 2 and neither work

 

whats up with yours? i dont exactly know whats up with this one it might just have some characters missing or it may not work at all

 

mine started giving faulse readings then gave up completly, if it has characters missing it wont be long till it gives up completly

 

how hard was it to change the display then?

 

my old man done mine wasnt a majour job if your good with a soldier iron think the new screen was 16 quid

 

yeah i did find a few on ebay and at maplin and they werent much

 

do you have a part number or web site for RS?

my screen also is no good

 

seems like they all do this, going to be alot of them scrap soon....shame as they are supposed to be good bits of kit!

 

I'm going to give this one a go. Even if I don't get it working it's still worth good coin
