Who can rebuild a backup monitor? - Alan - 11-09-2006 16:27

Either my monitor or my camera has gone out on my coach. I'll
probably just replace the camera, but I'd like to have my b&w monitor
fixed (or hopefully rebuilt). I like it that it has the controls
built into my overhead panel, and i think I'll lose that if I replace
my monitor with a new one. ...So that being said, is there someplace
that I can just send my monitor to to have it rebuilt??

Thanks,
Alan 87FC35

Alan,
I had a problem with my monitor flickering. I took the monitor out and removed
the circuit boards and took a good magnifying glass and inspected the solder
joints some were cracked. After resoldering the monitor works perfect. In front
of the camera is a 1/4" pc. of plexiglass that was crazed badly. After
replaceing that I now have a good sharp clear picture. Hope this helps.

I had a problem with the monitor pulsing, and reverse view...I bought a
color voyager by audiovox with a camera that pivots. camera fit in the
space the old camera was wiring was a little bit of a hassle. removed
the screen with tube put a piece of smoke gray lexan over hole and
mounted the lcd display on it...well worth the effort. See the toad see
almost the back of the bus, see all the way down the road. really happy
with the result

I did the same thing with the clock on my monitor panel. It had small cracks
in the solder. With a small soldering iron- fixed it like new.
