Emax

Hi...again!
=)

The display on my emax was dead so I bought a EL Foil and solder it on. 
Now it´s backlit but still no characters. I have connected another board with a working display on and it works.
When I detached the display the little plastic clamp that holds the two pins to the board wasn't soldered to the holes on the board. I looked at the other working board and it had the two pins soldered onto the board so I soldered the "leads" that goes from the plastic thingy where the pins are. Hmm.. do anyone understand what I mean? 
=)

I have done some testing with a multimeter. All 14+2 pins from display board to button board ok. All traces from display pin holes to flat cable ok. Every lead in flat cable ok. I connected the button board and digital board and measured the soldered points between the connectors. No broken leads and still no characters on the display. Backlight works tho!
