LCD display semi-solution (but easy)
I am sorry and this is not the place for it (I know)
I lately picked up a JVC PC-55 , needed a lot of cleaning, mainly sliders and buttons.... LCD was unreadable almost every single segment flickered....
The section about that (solving it) being closed : here is something that kindof worked for me : over a few days I sprayed contact cleaner alongside the connector cables and let it drip down and dry up....... now it s not back to fully working or anything...but.... the counter display works except for a flicker in the 1s number, PLAY, STOP, REC FF FW and the moving segments along with the arrow, the normal and dolby C, all segments for the reverse mode and the entire level-indicators are back to life now. It s not perfect....but it worked on mine without destroying or removing things.
If it can help anyone...
once again sorry for posting that here, if someone would be as kind as to move it to the appropriate (closed to replies) section...
