Default HVAC problem, FIXED

I noticed a few days ago the display on the "hvac" control panel was very dim, so I started checking on the forum to see if I could find some answers. The post by RPOZ4Z had the fix. I followed his instructions and the display is bright again.
Thanks to all who had input on that post, you guys and girls come thru all the time.
Once again thank you"RPOZ4Z

5 years ago, I replaced my HVAC display because it was dim. Later, I read the above post reference for a fix and repaired my original unit but kept the newer one installed. Then, just recently, my new one became dim and I took it out to try the fix on it. It turns out, all the resistors were fine and I was unable to repair it. I now put the repaired original one back in and I have, at least for a while, a bright display. The newer one I cannot fix has part no. 09380441. This info may affect some people. And maybe, some bright forum member can find a way to fix the newer units.
