I got in a Mousin' Around with a problem on the 1st player display only. Whenever either segment b or k is supposed to be lit, the other segment lights as well. So if a letter with segment b lights, segment k lights also. Similarly, if a letter with a k lights, b lights as well. I do not see anything shorting any legs of the display or any chips on the board together. I have unplugged and replugged the ribbon cables with no change. Any thoughts, oh wise ones of Pinside?? Again, player 2 display works correctly.

It's sounds like an internal short in the display glass itself. It's well noted over on PinWiki. Unfortunately, there is no fix for this. Replacing the display is really the only option.

Thanks!! I looked all over the troubleshooting pages but somehow missed this. And it's exactly the same segments I am having trouble with also. I feel like a dummy!
