Emax

Hey there... I ordered one of these, should be with me tomorrow.

You say you "left pin 3 disconnected", then you go on to say you "just leave 15-16 disconnected". Can you confirm which pins should not be connected on the new display?

Also, I know where the inverter is, I take it I just disconnect it and that is it done? Do I have to do this before testing the new display?

I'm not sure where the backlight connector is though, and what to desolder?

Thanks!
