After watching this I was fully prepared to start disassembly and get going but decided to try using a hairdryer on the screen while it was still mounted on the wall. Tried for a few minutes then let it cool down and switched it on and it seemed a bit better. Took batteries out again and gave it a really good blast, playing the hairdryer all over the screen till the whole screen darkened. Let it cool down for 5 minutes then replaced batteries and it is absolutely perfect!

@brick1991 9 месяцев назад

Thanks for this comment :D this worked for me aswell! Saved a lot of time! Just 2 or 3 minutes with the hairdryer. Also the screen was not 100% visible after i was finished with the hairdryer but i pushed a little bit on the screen and that worked.

Worked a treat , did it a couple of times heating it and cooling it with the hairdryer and now my screen is working perfect and looks brand new!! Thanks to both of you , you’re both legends!!

@laronso1 Год назад

It is not the display which causes the problem but the ribbon you mentioned in this video at 8 min 20 sec. The ribbon is glued to make good contact. After a number of years the glue doesn’t hold on the way as it should. Then the display turns weird… By heating the ribbon only and after that pressing the ribbon (back and forth with for example a blund pen) to the display while the glue cooles off everything makes good contact again. I’ve repaired numerous displays this way. Works great every time. And there is less chance of damage to the display. And no need to remove the plastic display cover. The obove is just ment to finetune your excellent video Mark.

I have not tried the repair yet but have at this stage to compliment you on the clarity of your presentation - streets ahead of many. Well done.

@juliedavies8862 Год назад

Amazing! This video was so easy to follow and after two attempts at heating the screen with a hairdryer for a minute each time, the thermostat is now useable again! Thank you so much and for not charging for your expertise - other individuals charge around £4 to download their video. Free video has saved me the cost of a new thermostat

@laurajamie3662 Год назад

IT WORKS - FANTASTIC TUTORIAL!!!!! Took us 2 attempts but it’s absolutely perfect! I’m in shock it’s so simple but major reward! Saved us £200+ It was barely reading anything on the screen and after attempt 1 got 15% back but non functional reading still and then hubby stepped in for attempt 2 and it’s now perfect! I can’t thank you enough xx

@marcusandrew.5005 Год назад

Excellent guide . Took three attempts , as a fear of burning the unit out made me cautious. Finally got there . So far so good . Thanks

@joannalangdon329 Год назад

Amazing, it worked!! I followed your excellent instructions and along with several pauses and replays of the fiddly bits have restored my Honeywell to pristine condition with all digits present and correct again. Saved a packet and have a lovely sense of accomplishment. Thank you xxx

@sarahsomebody8684 10 месяцев назад

I absolutely cannot thank you enough. I dropped my thermostat this morning and the screen went blank I tried changing the batteries but no joy. I found your video and followed your instructions except I used a hairdryer. It worked !! As a single lady on limited income. This has saved me as I can’t afford a new one right now. You are a genius x

@nickuk3600 Год назад

Thanks for the clear and concise video. It worked for me. The one thing I would add was that when I tried using the clips i had to hand, they were quite big so i found that the LCD wasn't able to get hot enough to turn blue in the areas it needed to. I was concerned that it would over heat if I tried to guess if those areas had turned blue. As I had nothing to lose, I took off the clips, put the screen on a flat surface, covered the light panel and ribbon with a piece of metal to deflect and hopefully absorb as much heat getting to it and then fairly slowly with a heat shrink gun took the screen up to that blue colour. It took maybe a few minutes and i tried not to scorch it. patience at this point is needed i reckon. Once assembled works perfectly and so far is staying that way. Yeah! Thanks so much. I love fixing stuff!

@holly9556 Год назад

@zoebx1314 Год назад

Thank you SO much for this, was a little dubious whilst dismantling my thermostat. I thought it might never switch back on again. Wasn’t put off when I put it back together and the screen was worse than before, was amazed it worked at all!! Went back and did it again, now it works perfectly. I used a hairdryer though until the screen went grey. Brilliantly explained, easy to follow video. Thanks again 👍🏼

@sandrabshannon8818 Год назад

Just followed your video to mend my dodgy screen and it has worked like a dream, absolutely perfect digits now, no bits missing at all! Thank you for sharing your knowledge. 👍🙂

@malcolmdean974 Год назад

Well produced video, very detailed on disassembly òf unit, which is not that obvious on first attempt, or subsequent attempts after passage of time. I've carried this procedure out a couple of times now, but still need reminding. On this occasion, I used a heat gun to heat the glass, which meant I could see the glass turn a dark colour evenly all over. I then held it, glass down, on a flat solid surface with pressure applied evenly all over until cool. This restored the screen perfectly first time. Hope this helps. Thanks again Mark.

@richbowley5724 9 месяцев назад

Really useful video - followed all the steps which made it really easy to take the unit apart and put back together again. I found 30 seconds on a toaster did not do anything, so tried a hair drier on full setting and it worked a treat. All characters are now visible. Cheers Mark

@kellyforrest3950 Год назад

Thank you so much, my OH was sceptical and ready to buy a new one. I told him we had nothing to lose so I gave it a go and it worked first time! Very happy thanks for the simple video.

Solved, first time of asking. Fabulous, it's not really about the cash saved but the satisfaction earned and the waste deferred. Thank you so much.

@DeborahJane Год назад

I never watch RU-vid so this my first ever comment but it definitely warrants it. This worked for me first time. I have reasonable electrical knowledge but found this easy to follow. I recently moved into a rented house and the landlord did not want to sort the problem out or buy a new thermostat. I don't have a toaster so used a hairdryer for probably less than a minute on both sides of the glass and just squeezed it together. Thanks Mark.

@northernsoul54 Год назад

Amazing! From a near blank screen to looking like new. Thank you 😊

@davebarrett5168 2 года назад

Thank you for your excellent video Mark. I have been having a go but also based on my electronics development engineering experience I would like to offer the following comments & possibilities for improving the process (1) The toaster method is a bit hit and miss, fierce and violent, in terms of temperature control. Why not set your domestic oven to no more than 120°C and put a heavy baking tray in it, then when it's up to temperature ( check with infra red gun thermometer) put your LCD board assembly ONLY in the oven for an initial maximum of 3 minutes. Based on: (a) Maximum semiconductor junction temp of silicon devices is 150°C and (b) all sorts of plastics for low temperatures, windings connectors etc are rated at 130°C and (c) I haven't yet looked at what the LCD liquid crystal display is rated at. The fan oven is a more even controlled temp. (2) When you take it out of the oven press down the ribbon connector along its length with a screwdriver or spatula as it is probably here at the taped / glued ribbon connector that the defective connection lies and not in the LCD itself. (3) Instead of reassembling the entire unit it is best to test it running. Whether from the 2 x 3 volt battery cells or a bench power supply set to 3V get a power supply that ends in red and black crocodile clips that you can connect to the big square gold plated pads on the lower main circuit board (RIGHT WAY ROUND). Then you can test the display minus any switches etc out of the case, and either re bake or re- press the ribbon connector etc. and repeat without having to reassemble the unit. If the LCD goes black during the baking it can recover when it cools down. My CM927 is not too bad now but it is in my tenant's house and he pays me good money so I will probably fit a new controller for peace of mind and customer goodwill. Rubbish piece of counter- sustainable engineering by the way Honeywell - shame on you - we have come to expect a whole lot better from you. Kind regards - Dave Barrett.

@daznwen Год назад

That's a great tip using the oven at 120 degrees. I turned a baking tin upside down so it was easier to take the LCD out with a pair of tongs. I put the LCD in face down on the tray with no other protection or pressure. I left it in exactly 3 minutes and laid the LCD face down on a double folded tea towel. I used a small thin oven glove to apply finger pressure as it was cooling down paying particular attention to the ribbon area. The display originally only showed a couple of lines and dots and is now as good as new!

@1tiflog Год назад

thank you for the tip, felt safer than the toaster. Used it on mine which was showing half the digits, now the display is perfect! (did 3min and pressured with clips)

@hitmanhinchy Год назад

@@daznwen @Dave Barrett @Mark Ballard LTD, OMG tried several goes at the toaster method to no avail. Nothing to loose on oven method. BOOM same method Darrren used with fan oven set at 115 (tested with eat gun). After exact 3mins double layered T towel and light pressure until cooled (another 3 mins). worked a treat. I do love a helpful community.

@jamescagney2713 Год назад

I think you are basically suggesting a reflow. Nice thought, but my gut feel is the display will just melt. Not sure where you studied but last I saw the reflow for "leaded " solder was around 185 c and lead free was higher. You may be smarter than me I guess, , never tried a toaster myself, in theory it may work if one could regulate the heat and remind folk to set it on its side and also turn the eject button off, . really, ? I think you need to remove your post before you get a lawsuit against it . The prior posts by others may require verification. Simple method is to google melting point of solder. Leaded solder is still to be found on many devices and has a lower melting point than the latter stuff, but still no where near as low as the numbers suggested

@jamescagney2713 Год назад

@@daznwen Sorry, I just do not believe it was ever solders in the first place Are you sure it was not in a Skt? Some displays are fitted in Dips , who am I to talk though, I only worked pretty much every industry over the years in mainly R&D positions.

In the 15 years or so I've been on RU-vid this is probably my second ever comment. Just want to say thanks so much for this excellent video. Mine wasn't working at all, and it had been that way for a couple of years. Was looking to replace it completely but I found your video. For other people: I used a fan heater until the screen went dark grey, probably took about 4-5 minutes. The first attempt didn't work at all. The second attempt worked - and now it's 100% perfect. Next dilemma - none of the buttons were working! Had I damaged the PCB? I saw some advice about cleaning the buttons with rubbing alcohol and I did that - there was a lot of grey gunk that came off. I put it back together and now every button is working, and it's just like new again. Thank you so much Mark! 🙌🏼

Worked first time. Fidliest bit was getting glass and associated circuit board out and in.

I left the screen for about 15mins, until the normal greenish colour returned, and then reassembled.

I’ve just done this method but with a hairdryer! I didn’t separate the back light… once i removed the LCD display I heated up the front until the glass darkened slightly and turned the unit over and placed it on a tea towel and pushed pressure down on the back side using another tea towel and waited for it to cool. i reassembled and everything worked spot on!! I did notice the display shown room temp at 28° this did come down in about 15mins or so. (I’d say target temp for heating up would be around 30-32° as a good guess) 👍🏻

So I followed your disassembly , assembly - very good . Before I started. I switched the central heating on which is set to 60°. I Sellotape, the screen to the side of the radiator for about five or 10 minutes, then put it in a sash, clamp hand tight, put it back together. Everything works perfectly.

@andy4shurr 6 месяцев назад

My honeywell cm921 got to the stage where I literally could only see the backlight and no digital display. This fix worked for me and it looks brand new again. I only had to do this once but I improvised and used some strong pegs to grip round the edges and then used a hair dryer to to heat the glass up for around 5-10 minues, all the while repositioning the pegs every few mins to make sure I'm heating all the screen. My glass didn't go discoloured at all so I think this may be a safer way to heat it up than the toaster. Thank you Mark for posting this informative video.

It worked first time. The only thing I did differently was I used a hair dryer instead of a toaster. Thanks for your video. It has saved us £100+

Thank you very much. Sorted mine with clamps and a hair dryer. Did two heat cycles to black on the lcd screen.

Can't believe how easily I fixed 2 of these. I used the hairdryer method discussed in the comments & used it on hot for about 3 minutes and it only took 1 attempt. My only issue was a battery connector falling out. If that happens you need to put it back in place before the circuit board or the unit doesn't work. Anyway coffee money sent, cheers Mark!

Brilliant fix. Worked on the third attempt after toasting for 1.5 minutes.

Perfect…at first it did not work because the screen did not warm up enough. Following this video, my second on this repair, I heated the screen until it went fully blue. Perfect now. Thanks mate!
