Re: LCD replacement from RS

2011-03-27 by dutchbeats

he said to solder 1 - 14 and pin k which is the led ground. don't solder the led + because you already are getting power for the screen by switching the resister on the led board from r7 to r8. please tell me you soldered the led + and jason is right :/

I see the ground and +5 on the Emax LED board but the spacing on the new display seems a bit wider than the original.  Do I have to solder the pins on the new display and bend them to fit the Emax board?
