Indigo 2 lcd problem
 

hi All
recently backlight on my Indigo 2 stopped working and only way to see parameters on display is by shinnig flaslight into it.
question is, where can i find replacement lcd unit or service depot that could help me.
thanks

Hi there, sounds like a replacement LCD is needed.

Contact Access: http://www.access-music.de/emailsupportform.php4

Or these guys (they are the hardware branch to Access-Music): http://www.synthesizerservice.de/index.php?lang=en

thanks, i will give them a try

i just fixed my display for under $5 it is a pain to deal with service depot at least in Canada (no email back) very frustrating so if anybody is interested i can explain how i did it or where to buy a new LCD

I am interested in knowing how to fix this LCD as the LCd on my Indigo I has also burned, this is the second time, the first time I took it to a repair shop and they charged me 200 bucks...........

Since Google ends up in this thread regarding this problem and Vegas123 doesn't answer his messages, and no one did actually posted the solution, I had to remove the flicking (and dying) display board to get the part number myself...

The display board is sold as a whole piece :

Manuf: EVERBOUQUET
Part No. : MC16021E8-SBLW (For Virus Indigo 2 (Blue))

I made an order from Element14 / Newark (http://canada.newark.com/)

Newark Part Number:
97K4628

$28.08.

Hope this can help others.

Thanks ever so much for posting, Psych. A very helpful bit of info there! :)

Have a good Christmas!

LCD Replacement Report
 

Thanks to the link above, I took receipt of my replacement LCD screen today. It had to ship from England. It took about a week. In order to replace it, you have to transfer the ribbon cable from the old display to the new one. It's not easy and requires a lot of careful unsoldering and soldering. Definitely the master class if you're not used to doing that. After, the new screen is bright, the contrast settings are useful and the whole synth is much more useful.
