Replacing a Driver

Each driver is enclosed with a transformer and signal termination block (Figure 12).
Before a failed driver can be reached, the enclosure must be accessed. Follow these steps:

1. Open the digit panel as described in Section ‎6.1.

2. Remove the screws to take off driver enclosure cover.

3. Disconnect all connectors from the driver circuit board by squeezing together the

locking tabs and pulling the connector free.

Note: It may be helpful to label the cables to know which cable goes to which
connector when reattaching the new driver circuit board.

4. Remove the nuts securing the driver circuit board to the inside of the enclosure.

5. Carefully lift the driver from the display and place it on a clean, flat surface.

6. Position a new driver over the screws and tighten the nuts.
