    No display on switch lite, backlight works

    Hi, I have a switch lite that turns on, digitizer works, controls etc all fine. No display. Back-light works. I've seen a number of posts here that look similar and they usually end up inconclusive and the original poster doesn't follow up. Any things I can check before I replace the...

    <bump>. Also in the video above he replaces the FPC connector for the LCD ribbon before doing the MAX77620H. I think i will also need to do this - but he seems to suggest he heats the underside of the board to do this connector. Presumably because any other way and you melt the plastic. Are you...

    Hi Nagaa, ooo a new lead! This has me wondering, I am not next to the device to check myself (I will later), but, is the MAX77620 the chip in the middle picture of my previous post? If that is the case, it lines up with my lack of getting a good reading on the diode test on the trace which...

    Okay! Interesting. Your image showed FPC3 -- whereas I think we are dealing with FPC5 (I may be wrong). I did the diode test for FPC5 and this shows: As you can see -- all the expected voltage drops are slightly lower than the recorded 'goods'. The biggest difference was the 1.647 on the...

    Apologies - I updated my previous post - please see the image i attached. I actually have not done a 'diode value reading' before. I assume I go between the pin and ground? With the battery out?

    Very interesting - thank you. I see the backlight light up. The pattern is : 1/Backlight goes on for around 1 second 2/Backlight goes off for around 1 second 3/Backlight stays on and i can hear normal operation I thought perhaps one of the pins was slightly bent and i pushed it back into...

    An introduction

    Aha! Well I should admit I am also a programmer :) I have *a lot*. From the older retro stuff through to the latest: All of these bar the PS5 and I have a lot of older machines not on here! A question which you could maybe help explain to me. I have always wondered, what on earth is...

    Hi all. This is my first post after reading many on these forums - thank you for a great community. I recently acquired a faulty switch lite.
