Cheers will give this a try.

Seem to have managed to get random characters coming up now. So getting there slowly.

Well replaced the cap, still dosen't work so guess the device is bust. O well

Thanks for your help anyway

Hi
Thanks for getting back to me.

This part, would it be possible for me to replace the part with one from my local electronics store?

I don't want to me spending loads trying to get this one to work, just incase it is broke completely. So if I can't do it cheap I may just buy a new one.

Just been looking with a mltimeter, and the two components at the lower right hand side. (looking at pcb with 'Matrix orbital' at top centre)
The writing on these is
10-20
N2 (2)

One seems to work, other seems to be 'blown'.

Could this be the cause?

Really don't want to have to buy another ...

Was just wiring up my lcd, and think I connected the usb pins to the back in the wrong order.
Probably putting the 5v+ line down one of the data pins, guessing this makes the device useless? Or is there some sort of protection on it?

Nothing shows on the screen when connected up with a usb B cable ...
