just a quick fix to lcd ribbon
« on: January 24, 2009, 03:21:37 PM »
ive had a few people ask me what to do when  you run into this problem with your ribbon lock





 for anyone with this problem who doesnt know what to do (even tho its pretty simple some people panic and think its all over) thought id show what i did to fix it.



just a small peice of electrical tap on the back of the ribbon  should add the tiny bit of thickness to hold the ribbon in place with the pins. i know its such an easy fix it doesnt really need an explination, but ive had quite alot of people ask me how to fix it. so i thought id just throw this out there for the search button :)
