How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Unplug the unit before accessing the control panel.

  • Check brightness setting: Some models allow dimming; verify the display is not set to minimum (refer to manual).
  • Inspect connectors: Remove the control panel and reseat the display connector on the UI board.
  • Look for damage: Check the display for cracks or burn marks. Replace the display or entire UI board if damaged.
  • Replace UI board: If reseating connectors does not restore the display, replace the user interface board which includes the display driver.
