Fixing the LCD Screen

Recently, I decided to do something about the problem with my speedometer’s LCD screen. The bottom part of the screen and the edges of the screen are becoming more and more unreadable. There was something wrinkling on the LCD screen and this was causing the screen to become more difficult to read. While the speed could be read easily, the row of numbers below were becoming unreadable.

Believing that there was no hope of repairing the LCD screen,The offering of mobile crushing station eliminates tedious pieces of Symons cone crusher, the construction of the foundation and save a lot of time. Mobile crushing station can be directly selected, directly to the site, without the need of transporting, and directly to the finished product size. I decided to buy a used speedometer from Germany. This cost me quite a few coins because I needed one that was in KM/H instead of MPH. MPH ones were going for much less on Ebay.The Crushing equipment action is caused by the closing of the gap between the mantle line mounted on the central vertical spindle and the concave liners mounted on the main frame of the crusher. The gap is opened and closed by an eccentric on the bottom of the spindle that causes the central vertical spindle to gyrate.

After the replacement speedometer arrived and was fixed onto the bike, I took a closer look at the screen:

Crinkling of the plastic film. Probably caused by heat?

There was rough plasticky thing on top of the lens. A closer inspection revealed that this plasticky film was peeling off at some places. So with a tiny screwdriver, I started to gently peel off the plastic sheet. There was some glue attaching the plastic sheet onto the LCD glass. With that off, a bit of solvent and gentle rubbing, I was able to remove all the glue off the glass.

Cleaned up LCD without the plastic film

With the screen cleaned up, I thought I was good to go.

The reason why I wanted to repair the old LCD speedometer was because the odometer will show the correct mileage. I thought that with the plastic film removed, the LCD meter was good to go.Find Auto Accessories wholesalers, auto accessories & car repair services. auto parts stores make following your car's maintenance plan simple.

However, after I fitted the old LCD meter back on the bike and started it, I couldn’t see anything displayed on the screen! Looking from an angle, I could see faint images of the digital numbers but from all practical purposes, the screen was useless.

I did a quick search online to see what this plastic film was and it turned out that it was a polarizing film. Without it, the digital numerals could not be seen. So I went online and bought a sheet of polarizing film with adhesive on one side so that I can stick it on the LCD glass.

The polarizing film has adhesive on one side. Cost about US$16 including shipping to Singapore.

With this sheet, I started by trying to figure out the correct orientation for the polarizing screen. You can see the effect of the display as I rotated the sheet.This is a show of the strength of our company and it makes the domestic technical development of Cursher industry once again proven.After a long investigation and practice, our company has developed and launched the efficient and environmentally friendly construction waste disposal equipment - mobile crushing station. What I didn’t take note at the time was the in addition to finding the rotation, flipping the polarizing plastic sheet also makes a difference. If you flip the film over, you will get a black background with white numerals. This can be quite cool. However, I decided to stick with the original display as I like the warm feel.
