[EVL F250]

hello all,
for some odd reason the overhead display went dead but the two buttons still light up. Has this happened to anyone else or any Ideas

Common problem... here is the fix.

just wondering, so ponder this... would it be possible to super glue the resistor back on??? as long as there is a good connection???

I doubt you could make a good enough connection w/ super glue,
Its not that hard to solder it

[lcducote]

well i dont have the necessary tools for the solder.... guess ill have to go get some.

thanks for the help guys, I guess tomorrow I will take it out and see what I can do.

I disagree......

My hands are too big, and i'm too dumb in the head

I've tried several times over the past few months. I just can't do it.

Hi, my name is Chris, and i'm a soldering retard.

I'm going to take it out again and pay somebody to do it.

I had to do mine twice. First time didn't have a good solder iron.

i still think super glue would work... as long as you dont get any between the resistor and the circuit.

really, dont super glue it. IMO
