These are separate views of the same evidence. Frequency alone does not establish a fix, and these counts must not be added together.

Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

8 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

0 evidence records excluded for query context · 0 excluded by outcome qualification · 0 adjusted by outcome qualification.

2 acknowledgements have no verified action link; they do not establish a repair result.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

I have an 03 996. The A/C Control LCD is starting to bleed out on the screen. Anyone else have this problem? Any suggestions to repair or replace. Thanks.

POST 3Original post

Mine bled and was replaced under warranty. Nothing you can really do if an LCD goes bad but replace it. You see the units on Ebay on a regular basis at way below dealer cost. I think I remember seeing a post on replacing the LCD instead of the whole control on one of the Pcar sites, either here, Renntech or 6 spped online. You might try some searches. Replacing the unit itself is a simple 15 minute job.

POST 5Original post

An old item but -I need to replace my broken/bleeding LCD A/C-panel on my 986-Boxster from 2004. My question: Is the Audi-display compatible with Porsche? Does it look the same? Check this link: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Audi-...item414bc1a764 Regards Kenneth -Boxster owner in Sweden

POST 6Original post

Link is not working. There was a company on ebay that had the led, but it was listed for Audi. It worked but was a bit too large. The company then came out with a small unit for 986/996. Someone on renntech used it and it worked fine. I think this is the website for the company that was/is selling them. http://www.modulemaster.com/en/servi...e_controls.php

Tool Pants, It is great to see you back here on the 996 Forum! It has been quite a while!

Update for posterity: If you want the original factory look. I'd highly recommend this... http://shop.914rubber.com/LCD-Produc...m1plqscsfapp06 The guy at 914Rubber.com makes replicas of the original LCD displays. They are perfect, I have one in my car. (which is why I have a spare Audi display)
