|
|
My display fades to white within 30 seconds. When I Touch the brightness control, the display temporarily returns to normal. Then fades to white again in 30 seconds. Any ideas? See video: http://youtu.be/qG5e5gKGGPo |

Probably just a dirty/oxidized potmeter traces.
Just fully turn the brightness potmeter few dozen times, fast to left and right to clean any dirty contacts. |

It's the control just to the left of the Combi button. The potentiometer that is turned by the control knob can go "bad" over time, a bit like when the volume control on an amp goes noisy and crackles. A few turns left and right should sort it, if that is the problem.
