[Pro2006] ref el question

[chuck sayers]

Hi John, yep, your el panel is bad. I have one of each model 2006. One has 
the on/off switch and the other has the dimmer switch.
The display is clear looking plastic, this is where the numbers get 
displayed and the el panel just provides the light behind it so you can see 
the numbers.
It's real easy to replace it and snip a couple diodes at the same time.

Hello Chuck & All,

Sorry, I don't have anything to contribute to your lockout question.  But
about that EL...

My kids bought me a spare EL several years ago.  I assumed then that it was
the EL that would go dark.  But it is the display without running the EL
that seems to be getting dark to me- I run the back light all the time now,
where I didn't need to before and kept it off to "save it" as I had been
told.

So... am I starting to have a display problem or an EL backlight problem?
