System 11 Display ?

Hi There,

I'm having a slight issue with my Diners Alphanumeric display. When I put the display into test mode all the characters work fine. There are a few that are lighter (not much) or flicker a tiny bit but over all very readable. As soon as I exit display test and return to the audits menu or game play, I loose about 4 of the digits on the bottom display. Not completely but they appear to be light and flickering. Is it possible that something else is causing the issue besides a degassed display? Loose solder connections?

I find it odd that it essentially passes the test phase but conks out during the game. Does the display test on system 11 not stress the display limits like the game play would? If need be I'll replace the display later, but I wanted to see if there was other things I could check first. I have already replaced the High Power display board with a new Rottendog one, so its probably not that ( the original was burned up). Thanks everyone!

You can verify your high voltage [CAUTION!] readings during test and out of test to see if there's a change. You may be running at bare minimum to excite the gas.

Thanks for the response. I'm still kinda new to Pin diagnostics so where exactly would I take the readings from? The top connectors? Im comfortable measuring voltages if I know where to put the prongs.
