Hey - I've got dead pixels too... So can you tear these apart and work on that connection? I've seen this "zebra rubber" connections to LCD's before that if you wiggle it around you can get it back working. Of course I've also seen stuff bonded together so that you can never take it apart at least not in a state were you can get it back together. Maybe more importantly - how do you reset this thing once you take it out. Sorry - that's probably been discussed a lot. I think my pixels have been out for ~2 years... Luckily it's every other row so I can still read it. I had a friend who wasn't familar in there and his incredulous "What does THAT mean" was really pretty funny. I said it's "Klingon" 8-) -MELD Colin Stamp wrote: > On Wed, 18 Jan 2006 03:53:48 GMT, "pablo" > <pabloATnospamlyhombreDOT.net> wrote: > > >>"Colin Stamp" <col.dustbinnospamp.plus.com> wrote in message >>news:lcdls1pc8scub0loas8bem2fap63aeq92bnospamcom... >> >>>You'll probably find that the horn is now intermittent too, and that >>>the dashboard dimming doesn't work properly either. >> >>Yikes, how did you know?? :-) I hadn't even noticed that until you pointed >>it out.
