Possible Causes

Aging or failing LED/LCD display, Loose display connector on PCB, Low-voltage supply instability, Cracked display board

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety: Unplug the unit before opening the housing.

  • Check viewing angle and lighting: Confirm that the dimness is not due to extreme viewing angle or bright ambient light.
  • Inspect display connector: Access the control panel and ensure the display module connector is firmly seated on the PCB.
  • Look for damage: Examine the display for cracks or moisture marks. Any physical damage usually requires replacement.
  • Test power supply: If you have a multimeter and skills, check the low-voltage rails feeding the display. Fluctuations suggest a failing power supply on the main PCB.

If the display remains dim or incomplete, replacing the display module or entire control panel is typically required.
