LCD Screen

[Kingsmen26]

I have the itch to get a second machine in the near future. On my first ourchase I shied away from anything that had an LCD screen due to lack of technical skill. I thought if something went wrong with a machine that has an LCD it would be tough to fix. Has any of the LCD owners had any trouble with their LCD'S? Are they easy to repair?

these machine are built to run 24 hours a day 7 days a week in japan.
i have never heard of anyone with lcd problems,
they all have a heavy plastic cover over the front for protection.
most of my machines have lcd screens.

Well Kingsmen, since you just rewired your house, I think an LCD screen machine should be a piece of cake...............

i have a real voltage machine, and the lcd screen broke,, i took it to at-slots to be fixed,, and watched him as he was fixing it,, all he did was replace a group of wires that were connected to the lcd screen to the main part of the board and ta da the machine was up and running,, good as new,, or good as used,, which ever way you want to look at it

That's another problem. I'm nowhere near a repair facility. I have to do my own.

I own 8 LCD machines. Never had a lick of problems out of one of them.

buy from a dealer with a good warrentee and good service techs.

they can talk you thru anything over the phone.

The only thing you may have to watch out for with the LCDs is if it is winter out and the machine has been out in the cold you have to let them get up to room temp. long enough to evaporate any moister in or on the LCD and electronics. I was told by someone that learned the hard way. I know it's not winter any more (THANK YOU!) But thought I would put it out there.

Laz, I don't have that problem in florida,

good idea this time of the year if you live in alaska.

[at-slots]

yes laz you are right about that.....dont even think about plugging it in when they are cold

[at-slots]

just not even the LCDs.......the power supply also can be affected by cold weather start up

[Lazarus]

The way some people crank up the air conditioning you would think it was winter sometimes. Especially in some restaurants!
