330 almost ready apart from a dead kk2 aarrggh.

[Colinevan]

Well I had the enthusiasm to dig out my soldering iron and get the 330 ready. Everything done apart from sticky pad the rx and kk2 to the frame and allready thekk2 appears broken.

Basically when I connect the battery up it does its 3 tone chime, the backlight for the lcd comes on but I cant see any text.

Not really surehow good hobbyking are at replacement s but we shall see.

Only thing to note is that there is a small black adhesive tape that covers the ribbon connector going to the lcd. The tape was never stuck down properly .

Anyone have any ideas on how hobbyking are on replacement s or if this is a common known fault.

Thanks

Hi fella.

Do you have the Hobbyking programming lead to flash the KK2?

If you do - disconnect everything and connect it to your PC - it should all power up / screen etc. You can eliminate any other wiring causing the problem then.

Hbbyking take ages to resolve problems. I've had a few, and they were sorted - but took lots of e-mails on the support page and time....

I dont have one no.

Hmm iv just googled a few links and it appears a few people have similar problems including the contrast has turned itself down. Iv read theres a manual way to reset it by pressing the buttons in sequence including pressing one button 36 times lol.

If it was wired up wrong would it still come on. In fact are you free to take a phone call for 5 mins.

Thanks
