I have tried the bollock display but all it does is just increase the contrast with more lcd lines being shown. I have charged the battery so it does not seem to be a battery problem so i am thinking it might be the display. Fingers crossed i hope it does not need replacing the display but am suprised they all died at the same time. It is a dual display. They were working initially but i may have turned on the heating switch to heat the dispplay panel. I dont know if this would have damaged both. ????
Could be faulty display but seems odd that both would go..
According to Stan Denison at Superior Survey Services in Tampa, the following
first, check the batteries, recharge all the batteries and try again many time or replace batterie. maybe the machine was stored during a long time in bad conditions. if it does not work , your dealer hid information about the history of the machine.
