Thanks for all your help guys. It's wonderful to know that I can get a lot of support from this forum. By the way, AJ responded to me about the problem and he thinks that "there might also be a loose connection b/w display board and panel board (blue connector) that might need to be well fitted".

I wonder if that is something that I can try solving. It's too much of a hassle to pack it up and ship..but if I have nop choice...oh well.

Thanks again guys.

Phil
