Groups of segments are missing or locked on; for example segments h, j, k, m, n, p and r missing.

Missing or stuck segments from a bad SRC pack on the CPU board

Cause: A failed resistor/capacitor pack among SRC1-SRC9 on the CPU board; SRC5 for the h-r segment group.

Checks

  • Remove the suspect pack and test it out of circuit; in circuit readings are meaningless.

Fix

  • Replace with a bussed resistor network (1k or 4.7k x 9) with its common pin in board pin 1 and the ground pad left open, keeping C49-C56 fitted, or build an equivalent from discrete parts.
