Car Radio LCD Down

[RonG]

The display in my car radio had pretty much faded away over time. Solution: Replace the radio LCD. Whenever I do a repair on an item I haven't done before, I go to YouTube. I actually found a video that tells you how to remove the radio and LCD screen and replace the screen. I love America.

Everything else put back together

I’d rather take an oversized screw driver to a George Snyder reel than attempt that, Ron. Nice job.

That is amazing to me ! I break into a sweat, taking a Pflueger Nobby apart !!

YouTube can come up with some amazing solutions. I tried everything (short of going to the dealer) to get an unwanted display off the screen of my wife’s older Lexus. Finally went to YouTube and a video directed me through a series of inane and seemingly unrelated actions. Then-Shazam! It worked! Display gone! Never give up before going to YouTube.

I bet you can buy a nice reel with the money you saved by not taking it to the dealership. Good job.
