Turn the control panel board assembly over and inspect it to be sure that the standoffs are in the correct
locations as shown in Figure 12. Also, confirm that you a placed a lock washer between each standoff and screw
and the pc board.
Figure 12. CP Board Standoff Hardware - Back.
On the front side of the board, place a straight edge across the top of two standoffs as shown in Figure 13
and confirm that the straight edge does not touch the LCD at any point. If it does, most likely you left out one of
the lock washer spacers shown in Figure 9. Move the straight edge to the remaining two standoffs and repeat the
test. If you don’t have a rule such as shown, you can use the straight edge of the heat sink (Figure 27).
CAUTION!
If the LCD touches the straight edge in this test, you will break the display when you install
it in the front panel sheet metal. Correct the problem before proceeding.
