Default SECS Monitors. in saph

hey all

Ive replaced the digital clock in my saph with a secs monitor,
like many have!
BUT!
has anyone found a way of stopping the monitor display from
fading out when it gets hot? Obviously this ONLY happens when you
got the heat on in the car..

or am i the only one who gets this prob!? lol

NOT A POST TO HAVE A DIG AT SECS ON, please!!! lol

fading doesnt only happen when the heater is on. i have had two secs monitors now and both have faded without getting hot. i,ve even tried blowing cold air on it but it still does it.
