I have a single pixel out on my Wolvie. Very annoying. Is this repairable?

#2 11 years ago

No.

Sorry.

Anyone wanna buy a slightly used DMD?

Just out of curiosity, where is the dead pixel? Is it off to the corner, where exactly? (If it were my DMD, it would be just my luck to have one go out right in the middle of the display... I'm a perfectionist so it would bug the crap out of me as well!!

You have all DMD pins in your collection. I think I would buy a new DMD, and keep yours as a good spare for emergencies.

I had a dot out on my XM pro from the get go. I contacted Stern with all the needed info they had me go through JJ to get a new one sent out my way. Got to me pretty quick. You may want to contact Stern no way a DMD should be having issues this early on.

Excellent idea. His game should still be under warranty.

Dead pixels seem to be pretty common on the new Sterns. A bud of mine has 3 or 4 out on his ACDC LTBR.

It is right in the middle. I will contact Stern. Hopefully they will cover it. Thanks.

Dead pixels are going to be a part of owning a game with a LED driven DMD
