Title: WTB: Authentic PCE LT Display Unit - broken or working
Post by: herr-g on February 16, 2024, 04:43:42 AM

I'd really love to get my LT back to the living after decades, but as recorded here (https://www.pcenginefans.com/forum/index.php?topic=5764.msg525674#msg525674) I'm having an issue with the display controller of my LCD unit.

So if by chance someone here had one in spare - no matter if broken or not - I'd be very happy to hear from you ^^

Is the problem actually your LCD/screen?

Usually when LTs have display issues it's due to bad Capacitors or other components on the board getting damaged because of the leakage and needing replacement.

Yeah it's definitely a display issue, the display driver board to be exact. I'd documented the whole journey here (https://www.pcenginefans.com/forum/index.php?topic=5764.0).

I was hoping that there should be several stock displays lying around in drawers since there seems to be quite an excitement for replacing those with modern IPS displays.
