I think I had lots of vertical or horizontal lines - its was really a
mess. I had already bought a replacement, and after concluding there
was no way to make the old transducer work with the new head, I
decided to experiment. There was nothing left to loose at that point,
and in fact with an hour I had it working just fine.

When my Apelco display went south I took it apart, cleaned all the

My screen has many artifacts in it, including both top corners being
black. Did the clean-it-up routine restore those?

Thanks for the tip. Perhaps I'll try that before trashing it...
