TFT screen bad

RandomID — Tue, 31 Jan 2023 10:34:38 GMT

MEDION 2.1 WIRELESS LAN INTERNET RADIO LIFE P85025 (MD86955) bought in 2017.

The colour TFT screen has vertical, white lines making it difficult to read. Also, there is a thick, white band on the right, but I think it's getting wider. Eventually, I expect the screen will show one , big, wide, white band ... so display no information.

This is what tends to happen to LED / TFT screens over time.

The screen is said to be a 6.10 cm/2.4 TFT colour display

Can this be replaced ? I can replace it myself if I can find a suitable screen. Does anyone have any information about finding a replacement - and how to actually attach it to the radio ?

Unfortunately, it seems the screen is not simply temporarily out of stock ... it's permanently out of stock. So Medion do not have a replacement for a component which is very likely to go wrong.

If anyone knows how to obtain a suitable screen and how to physically change it, I'll be very happy

I think that I might be able to buy a suitable small TFT screen on Ali Express.

Can anyone provide details on exactly what the specification of the screen should be AND

how to replace it ?
