How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety: Disconnect mains before removing the control panel.

  • Inspect display board: Remove the fascia and examine the display PCB for cracked solder joints, especially on the display and connector pins.
  • Reflow solder: If you are skilled with soldering, reflow dull or cracked joints.
  • Check supply voltage: A technician can measure the low-voltage supply to the display. If low, the main PCB may be failing.
  • Replace display module: If the display glass or VFD is faded or segments are missing, replace the display PCB or complete clock/timer module.
