Whites XLT LCD Screen replacement HELP!

Post by markmyword »

My Whites Spectrum XLT screen packed up the other day, it had missing lines on it for a while. It is a common problem on these models but there isnt a lot of info on the net about people replacing them. I found one of these screens online, spec here: http://www.pvelectronics.co.uk/128X64_b ... 128x64.pdf" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; and it is identical in dimensions and electronics. £14 I paid for it as opposed to whites wanting over £60. I have connected it up but no screen, the backlight works and I can dim it and brighten it by the shortcuts. Nothing happens when I invert the screen or adjust the angle.

Can anyone help? I have taken voltage measurements with the old screen connected, then the new one and there are differences in voltages which I can post if required.

Yours very frustrated :-/

I too have a screen issue with my White's Spectrum XLT metal detector. Is there anyone out there that can tell me where I can find a replacement screen ? I have heard that the White's DFX screen will work but, have had no luck finding either.. Please, I would appreciate any help locating the parts I will need to get my White's XLT back in use..

Thanks ...

Have you looked through this forum for other posts pertaining to the same problem as I see there are several? Regards Eric

The right display is the Powertip PG12864LRS-ANN-H (or PG12864LRS-KCN-H). I bought mine last year on Ebay and a friend of mine installed it monday for me. It works.

Hi Bluemask
Can you post the eBay link you purchased from at all? I've had a look myself and I'm not able to spot an obvious candidate to purchase from.

I could do with one too. but when I copy and paste the numbers into the search box
it comes up with a random assortment of displays.
