JT1000 bad pixels

[zoulas]

Hello, I have a couple of JT1000 and they both seem to have some missing pixels. Are the displays still available? Easy to replace? I also have an XTS3000 with a couple of missing pixels and someone recommended to do a read/write with the CPS and its been fine since. Should the same fix work for the JT1000? It seems writing the codeplug may have woken the pixels up, so I guess they were not dead just turned off. Any feedback, thanks.

Check out that sticky above.

Many memberas have fixed displays using the method described in this post.

Good luck

Unfortunately that won't work at all with the JT. It's definitely a hardware issue. The clothes iron method seems to work for a lot of people but I have one JT1000 that it just won't work on. YMMV

Good displays appear here from time to time. Got one a few months ago for about $40. GARY N4KVE
