[Elecraft] Fluke LCD Display

[Don Brown]

Hi

I don't know the model you have but if the meter is working and the probl=
em is with the display try this. Open up the meter look for a small rubbe=
r strip between the circuit board and the glass LCD display. Gently remov=
e the strip. You may have to remove some screws or release a plastic spri=
ng clip to separate the LCD and circuit board. Clean the circuit board an=
d LCD contact area with a Q-tip and alcohol, then reassemble. The little =
rubber strip is a multiconductor connector and is held in contact by pres=
sure. After many years the contact points need to be cleaned. Most of the=
 hand held and some of the bench models have this type of LCD connection =
strip.

I have an old Fluke that doesn't work any more.  Any one like to take a
look at and see if he can fix it?  The display reads but not correctly.
