Fluke 75 Digital Multimeter LCD Faded Digits Repair

The screen of my Fluke 75 multimeter had become faded.

The service manual is here



Unfortunately I cracked the bezel (MP20) when I was dismantling it.

It would appear that Fluke used a dodgy flexible connector MP21.  These connect the glass of the LCD to the printed circuit board.  According to my reading on the net, the popular position is that oil comes out of the plastic and that somehow stops them working.  The solution is to clean them with isopropal alcohol.

Apparently not a permanent solution but it got my meter working.
