Dan,

Don't be sorry. I was expecting to replace the LCD eventually, so it's not like I was completely unprepared. The lines don't even show up on white now, so I'm not going to worry about it until more show up.

However, I'm still curious as to how hard it is to change a Lombard display, compared to rebuilding a PB 190 and soldering that little power connector.

Thanks,
Caleb

single lines of pixels = failed LCD, cure = replace

Caleb, somehow or other you damaged the LCD when you cleaned it. There
are glued-on flat ribbon cables connecting the LCD's edge 'wires' with
the LCD's onboard driver PCB. Those glued-on connections can fail or
short, leading to anomolies such as your LCD displays. Just takes one . .

sorry
