Got myself one of these
From 1999, module number – 1999! Lol

So I'm thinking maybe I'll try upgrading the dismal old lighting on a couple of vintage 3V numbers with warm white LEDs. Did an F-91 for practice.

So I had almost the exact same problem as this guy – after all reset, the LCD looked perfect with all segments on, but was nearly invisible otherwise.
