hi,
My TZ display is shot and need to buy a new one. I was thinking of buying a color dmd, but not sure what to buy between the 2 choices of LED or LCD and really don't know where to begin. Any suggestion here would be appreciated. Thanks and Happy Father's Day to all you dads!

Quoted from jawjaw:Definitely buy colordmd instead of another dmd. Go with LCD. LED too bright imo and only good for games where the LCD does not fit. I think the LCD just looks better plus you get display options. Like a lot of people, I like dotsXL. It has a natural dot look but updated with color.
Thanks for your response, looks like I will go LCD, especially with pinsider Durzel chiming in to back it up.
I just installed the color DMD monitor on my TZ, but when I turned on the machine, none of the flippers work. I am not sure what happened or what to do. I appreciate any help. Happy Holidays!

Quoted from sgorsuch:I could not readily find the manual- but I think there is a connection needed for 12vdc for the DMD lands on the driver board possibly on J116- did the original connection get re-hooked up to this junction via the z connector that comes with the new DMD cable?
I did find the manual and-this connection does head to the fliptronic board via the cabinet opto switches
That was it, I didn't realize that Randy from colorDMD emailed me right back last night and identified that was the issue. I did not reconnect with z connector.
Everything works fine, awesome display! I now have "clock is broken" error message 
Something else to work on.....
Thanks everyone!
