So I recently picked up a 99 Series II Scopemeter and I'm wanting to do some work to get it back on its fee- *ahem* probes. The main problems im having are with it's screen.
The screen is fairly readable in the bottom left and center but fades near the top and bottom right corner. Also the backlight is a bit dim. I'm not sure if theres something wrong with the EL pannel itself or if theres something wrong with some components on the board (I guess I could tear it apart and find out
).
I can confidently replace the components that are bad and debug them but the problem I'm having is finding a good and (relatively) inexpensive source for parts. I know I could go on eBay and find a donor scopemeter but I really dont want to spend a mass amount of money on something thats going to become a husk unless i really have to.
Anyone have any suggestions?
