RMOne Screen

[Jamo]

We have an RMOne with a broken screen, it is not the lcd panel that is broken, just the plastic cover over the lcd.

 

I was just wondering if anyone has ever tried to repair one of these themselves as RM will only replace the whole screen which will cost nearly half the machine cost again to repair, way over the top for a functioning unit.

I've taken them apart & they are a pig. I doubt you can get the cover as a seperate part. We tried getting hold of the circuit board for the buttons that had been bent by a little darling & it was a whole unit or nothing.

The perspex covering the face of the screen itself?

 

I was previously sent one of these after one was damaged by a compass.

 

Repair was pry it off, and shove the other one in it's place with the supplied sticky pads.

Yeah its the perspex piece, we have a couple where some kids have rammed the buttons into the case too. Fix so far is to glue a piece or plastic over the hole!! These things are great till the repair costs come into it!!!

 

I think I shall have a go with the perspex cover, sounds pretty simple, and if all goes wrong can always get a whole new screen as RM want to do anyway
