Out of curiosity, two questions:
1) I'm guessing that if the mylar ribbon is at cause, then there's not much you can do...?
2) Does your postal service extend to continental Europe?

Mine has anywhere between 1 to 4 lines popping up when cold, they usually disappear once the car is up to temperature.

I am 11/14 at 100% line removal and those that did not work were early on while still learning the best methods.
I can post to Europe you just need to cover all postage costs.

The 1 I could not recover had been butchered by a previous repair attempt by DIY.
if you have lines it is best not to try soldering the ribbons as they are incredibly delicate.

Thumbs up

I'm definitely interested as mine seems to be getting more lines, especially when it's colder, they also seem to come and go in different places.
How long does the repair take? May take a trip down, just going to check distance from Walsall.
Thanks,
Martyn

Between 30 mins to an hour depending on how bad it is so far...
I will provide a cuppa and a view of the telly while you wait..

I can do it by post over 4 days
You send Monday by next day RM £11.00 with 100 insurance.
I pick up from post office Tuesday morning and put back in post Wednesday for delivery to you Thursday by same RM service
You pay £25+£11 if I can fix it and just the return post if I can not...
Unless I can clear all of the lines then I do not charge except for post.

If your IPK had been previously interfered with then it may make it harder or impossible to recover, in that instance I have some replacements in stock and a PM or phone call can be made to talk about options.

I do not think I can be fairer than that...

just for info I can not clear wormed or pixelated screens....

Just for info I can only take visits by appointment, usually evening or weekend, work does not always permit so an agreed date must be set.

Well done on this Klarzy!

Mine is ok at the moment (touch the dashboard ), but it is great to know that the service is available.
It will solve many people's problems.
