FT-817ND blank display
« on: January 02, 2021, 12:47:44 PM »

My FT-817ND was working fine until a couple of days ago. The problem started with the radio losing the display contrast setting when turned off and back on. Then the display went blank. Backlight still works, RF seems to work, tried all the reset sequences several times, pulled and cleaned the ribbon cable. Any suggestions? Is the radio toast?

Thanks.
