xsnf is your diy below for buggered radio display pixels?

"I did this fix a couple of weeks ago. I used that diy for inspiration, but I did most of it myself. Here are some tips:

1. All you need is some acetone (I used nail polish remover, qtips, and the right precision screwdrivers, and maybe a toothpick. I don't know what the eBay kits come with, but this is all I used.
2. You might break red plastic clip to the cord to the volume control knob. I couldn't get the red plastic clip off the plug without breaking it. If you break it, it's not a big deal.
3. Remove the metal retainer clip very carefully, it bends easily.
4. Rub all the tarnished stuff off of the connectors, the connectors should be completely golden.
5. When you clean the ribbon cable, get to the point where you're rubbing out the yellow surround, exposing the metal connection, but don't rub too crazy.
6. Whatever you do, DO NOT bend the metal retainer clip in anyway, not even to tighten the contacts.

Let me know if you have any questions.
