How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Unplug the unit before opening the control panel.
Steps to restore display:
- Reseat ribbon cable: Remove the front/top panel and locate the ribbon cable between the display and main board. Disconnect and reconnect it firmly.
- Inspect for cracks: Examine the display PCB for physical cracks or broken solder joints. If present, the panel must be replaced.
- Replace display module: Order a compatible Costway display/control panel assembly and swap it, moving one connector at a time to avoid errors.
- Operate by memory if needed: If the unit still functions but the display is partially unreadable, you can continue to use it cautiously while awaiting parts.
