Bolt-in OLED display replacement for K1000
开云体育Hi all,I didn’t see any guides about this on the site, but thought I would share that there is a bolt-in OLED replacement display for the K1000; no cutting, drilling or other heavy mod work needed. Though you likely will have to solder a new right angle 14 pin connector on the new display, depending on who you get it from. The one I found is the Winstar?WEH001602DWPP5N00000. There are variations on the number for the text colors, but the series is the same. Here’s a photo of the stock Seiko display (on top) and the Winstar (bottom): Once bolted in and plugged in, here’s how it looks on my K1000: Some semi-fiddly things to note are that on the 14-pin connector for the display, pin 3 (which was the display contrast adjuster on the LCD) is not used, and neither is the purple wire power tap from the transformer for the backlight. I taped over the transformer end of the connector that joins the display wires to the ones from the transformer, to ensure no risk of shorts before wire-tying it down. Since I did this, I learned that Winstar has a new model of this same display, WEH001602DWPP5N00100. The specs look to be the same. The above model number is for white type on a black background, but other colors are available too. Hope this helps, David |
