Bob,
Unless the polarizing strip is flexible as well as the protective strip,
I'd have to say no. Any other ideas in regards to my viewing problem? I
could try cutting away at the IC socket and resoldering the pins from
the back to see if that helps any.

By any chance did you remove the polarizing strip instead of just the
thin protective strip on the LCD module?
I did that and ordered a new one. I dug the old strip out of the

Check your display installation and the display driver (the big chip on
the back) installation. Make sure there were no bent pins when you
pushed that thing in. I know I was sweating bullets during that. I
assume all your other resistance checks on that chip were fine? Did you

Check the soldering very carefully - especially the pins of the LCD display
and the pins of the socket (which are unfortunately under the LCD now) -
check especially pin 1 of the socket, many times that pin does not get
soldered.
If you do find unsoldered or poorly soldered socket pins, you can cu

anything to display other than ELE on subsequent power-ups. Also, I have
to look at the display at an angle to see that. Any ideas on what t
