Telefunken Display Module / Backlight Failure

Microwave display is dim, flickering, or segments are missing.

This repair may involve working with high voltage components or water connections. Always unplug the appliance before removing any panels.

If you are not confident in your ability to perform this repair safely, we strongly recommend contacting a professional technician.

Possible Causes

Aging VFD or LED display, Faulty display driver on control board, Poor solder joints on display pins, Low control voltage from power supply

Safety first: Unplug the microwave.

Check brightness settings: Some Telefunken models allow dimming; ensure brightness is set to normal.
Inspect control board: Remove the control panel and check for cracked solder joints on the display module. Reflow solder if necessary.
Replace display/control board: If the display itself is failing, replace the display module or entire control PCB as supplied by Telefunken.
