There's also the possibility of the broken capacitor on the back side of the board.

My point is that lots of things besides the fill nipple can make the display go bad. When he said he broke the fill nipple, I assumed he'd visually verified that it had actually broken off. Now it seems from his last description as though the nipple is intact.

I think I'll update the image in the FAQ to more clearly indicate that the illustration is supposed to be of the missing nipple, not of the normal discoloration of the glass on the corner.

Edit: I take it back. I think the images and text are clear enough as they are.

It's pretty obvious when the nipple breaks - it comes right away from the display and you're left with a hole there instead! If the nipple is in place and there's no sign of a crack or any missing glass then you're barking up the wrong street entirely, and Tony's fuse comments are almost certainly the real problem. If that's the case, after your earlier comments, I will slap you

Touché

Oooooh, someone get a pic of the slap for the FAQ. Tony can file it under "How do I contact Rio/empeg if I need support?"

If you aren't going to fix it, I'll buy it off you in it's present condition. What would you say... $150 ?
