Hiya, can any of you help me with sourcing the little screen that sits on top of the dash. Mine is flickering. I dismantled my dash today hoping it was gonna be a loose connection but it seems to be the unit itself that's faulty. :(

Andy, if you're sure it's the unit and it's flickering, might just be a dry joint. Know any electronics bods? Might be worth a look...,.
 
try a local jap breaker, could try giving it a knock or tap, normally fixes things lol

No tbh. I've had it open and it looks pretty impenetrable to get to the front of the circuit board. It's the light that is flickering, the display is always there but when the light isn't on it is very very dim.

I've tried tapping it and knocking it. It does work temporarily, sometimes it comes back on for seconds, sometimes for nearly a whole minute!

I'll search the interweb for an Accord getting broken. Cheers lads.
 
Hey, if you want to send me it, I could have a look for you. Obviously can't promise anything, but I'm an electronics engineer. You'd only need to pay for postage both ways....
PM me if you want...

Could be a dry solder or something, I think the TSX have had numerous problems with this kind of thing and a TSB was issued.
