Has any one had a display issue with their FT-1000MP? If so what did you 
do to fix it? Located a link about this concern with a solution and 
listed it below. Bought my MP new, and so far no problem. But wondering 
if I shouldnt get the parts for this concern just in case. Thanks for 
your replies. 73 from Bill WD8ARZ in South Bend, Indiana

Hi Bill,

own a FT1000 MKV and had the display issue.
For 50$ you can buy a replacement of the inverter board (look at ebay).
It's worthwhile to check the little "Thermal Cutoff" JP1 which went open
in my case. Replaced it for little money and all came back to normal.

FWIW, the only inverter boards I've found on eBay are used.

Also, the inverter boards are a "purchased part" by Yaesu so the schematic
has not bee available AFAIK.

http://www.va3cr.net/   also has some info regarding the display
