GO 920 screen backlight gone

Postby t6eh2_2 » Sun Jun 02, 2024 4:52 pm

Is there any easy fixes for the broken screen backlight other than replacement screen?

In case of replacement screen, which models share the same screen?

Any suggestions where to get new screen?

Thanks!

The 520, 720, 920, 530, 730 & 930 are basically the same regarding the screen etc and replacement screens are cheap as chips on eBay. Changing the screen & digitiser is not too hard to do. Maybe search around this forum (or google) for a how-to?

PS you may need to recalibrate the new screen but, again, plenty of info around for this

I looked at Ebay and Aliexpress. Screens are about 10-15 euros plus delivery. Has anyone found cheaper option?

I paid 10 € fo the unit. :D

So for a total of €30-€35 you'd have one of the best older devices out there which can run virtually any map? Sounds good to me :045:
