HAAS® LCD & Video Board Exchange & Repair
Break down today. Make it work again tomorrow.
We lend you a working video board within 24 hours, fit it and prove the machine. You keep the loaner while we repair or replace yours — fixed pricing, same warranty as new.
What the video board does
The video interface board takes the display signal from the MAINCON and drives the LCD (or, on older machines, the CRT). It also carries the backlight inverter on many revisions. When it fails the machine is usually still perfectly healthy — you just can’t see it, which is every bit as bad for production.
Signs it has failed
- Screen completely dark while the control is clearly running
- Garbled, rolling or half-drawn display
- Backlight that flickers or drops out when the cabinet warms up
- Display fine at power-up, then fades after an hour
- Vertical lines or a strip of the screen missing
Why they fail
Backlight inverter capacitors and the backlight tube itself age out; ribbon cables to the panel work loose; and the board runs warm inside the pendant. On older machines a full LCD upgrade kit can be the better long-term answer — we’ll advise honestly on the call.
Part numbers we cover
How Exchange & Repair works
- You call, we quote on the spot. Phone diagnosis to confirm the failed part. We tell you honestly whether we hold that unit, the fixed swap-in fee, and the fixed replacement price if yours can’t be repaired.
- We bring the part within 24 hours. An engineer arrives with the loaner, fits it, proves the machine and takes your original away. You’re cutting again the same day.
- You keep the loaner while we repair yours. Proper diagnosis at the bench, no time pressure. If we repair it, we swap back at your next service. If we can’t, you keep the loaner and pay the fixed replacement price you were quoted on day one.
Fixed pricing
One fixed swap-in fee plus a fixed price list for every replacement part, sent to you the moment you call. No hidden costs. If we repair your original, that’s all you pay.
Same warranty as a new HAAS® part
Every part we exchange carries the warranty HAAS Automation, Inc. gives on the equivalent new component — parts and labour, in writing, from the day we fit it.
