A good source of replacement displays is from 12C of the same vintage,
there was lots of them produced and they can often be obtained for a
reasonable cost. If you you look in the archives of the forums on
hpmuseum.org you will find advise on what to look for for a suitable
replacement. I have done the surgery myself and it is not too difficult.

Chuck, probably the LCD is gone south. But would the thisplay be the same

Today, I picked up my trusty HP16C that's been with me through thick and
thin and noticed a black splotch extending across about half the
display. This is with the power off.
Is the LCD display failing? Can it be repaired? This thing has been a
a sidekick of my for a very long time and I'd hate to see it go.
Anyone know?
