How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Unplug the appliance before removing the control panel.

Steps to diagnose display issues:

  • Check viewing angle: Confirm that the issue is not simply due to viewing angle or bright ambient light.
  • Access display board: Remove the front bezel and control panel to expose the display PCB.
  • Reseat connectors: Unplug and replug the display ribbon cable or harness. Inspect for corrosion or bent pins.
  • Inspect for damage: Look for cracks in the display PCB or burnt components near the backlight driver.
  • Measure supply voltage: If you are qualified, measure the low-voltage supply to the display while powered (taking all safety precautions). Low voltage indicates a main board issue.
  • Replace display module: If segments are permanently missing or backlight is very dim despite correct voltage, replace the display PCB / control panel assembly.
