Pulled a long-unused PRO-2006 Programmable Scanner out of the back of a
closet. After a battery change on the 9 V battery, seems to work fine
in all respects, except that the LCD display has become sufficiently
faint (lost enough brightness, or contrast) that it's barely readable,
with or without the built-in light on.

Any suggestions for kick-starting the display back to better visibility?


check for corrosion around the solder joints for the screen
could be causing a low voltage
may even be a dry solder joint

Otherwise look for a replacement from a wrecked radio "Pro2005/2006"
