Possible Causes

Failed LCD or LED display module, Loose display ribbon cable, Moisture damage behind display, Faulty display driver on main PCB

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Switch OFF the mower and remove the key before opening the display housing.

  • Check contrast/brightness: Some models allow adjusting display contrast; verify settings in the manual.
  • Inspect connections: Open the top cover and ensure the display ribbon cable is firmly seated in its connector.
  • Look for corrosion: Check the display board for signs of moisture or corrosion and clean gently if minor.
  • Use app (if available): If your Gardena model supports app control, use it to access settings while the display is faulty.

If the display remains blank, the display module or main PCB will likely need replacement.
