K5synth

I'm looking for someone to test an led display upgrade on a k5. Before you sell it , maybe you could try this display. Garbled characters could mean that someone attempted a backlight replacement and couldn't get the display reassembled properly again. Unless you are aware of another problem with the synth, that could be the problem.

    Well, I give up.  After having the memory battery replaced, it now just puts up garbled characters on the screen or nothing at all kinda like when I got it.  Too much time into this beast.  I give up.  If anyone out there in K5 land needs a parts unit or wants to deal with this thing let me know.  I feel like $10 for the unit is fair and you pay the shipping (which is what will kill us both haha).  I apologize if this is posted in the wrong place but I after coming so far and being shoved backward off a cliff, I am beyond p&(*$ed and just want this thing out of my house and hopefully into a home that will get something out of it.  We can work out the details if I hear something.  Thanks.    #yiv9666492114 #yiv9666492114 -- #yiv9666492114ygrp-mkp {border:1px solid #d8d8d8;font-family:Arial;margin:10px 0;padding:0 10px;}#yiv9666492114 #yiv9666492114ygrp-mkp hr {border:1px solid
