Transformer panels surface every once in a while online and at shows. You might want to keep an eye out for one.

Quoted from Arcane:

it should have the Driver Board with the diodes on it. Mine does not have them

Between the wiring hacks and lack of diodes on the driver boards, I'd be surprised if the u5 chip on the MPU actually works.

There's some switch matrix and slam switch troubleshooting info here:

Pascal sells an all-in-one board so you don't need a separate driver board if you use that board:

Quoted from Arcane:

Yes, it is a good idea in general to repin all the System 1 connectors. However in my case, the issue moves with the display when I install it into a different position. The other three displays are working fine. The last display is also displaying correctly but all the segments for "1" are always on. I tried the recommended UDN 6118 testing approach, and both chips passed the tests. I will try to post a picture to show in details what the display does:

Thank you for your recommendations and suggestions.
Yves
