JVC in dash dvd lcd went dark...
Hey guys,
So, the display on my double din JVC AVX706 dvd headunit suddenly quit working. In direct sunlight, I can see faint images on the screen, but when the cabin lights are dim you can't see anything. Makes me think that the backlight in the LCD screen died. I took it into Geek Squad, they couldn't fix it. Called JVC, they said they need $65 just to look at it, I would have to send it in, probably take a month to fix, and they would probably charge me for a whole new LCD screen ($500+!!!) What should I do? Anyone have a hookup to fix LCD's for in dash dvd players? The rest of the functions work great, but somehow the display is shot.
If it's a lost cause, I will probably be buying a Pioneer 4100DVD. This really sucks cause I don't even drive the car that much, but I really enjoy having the dvd capability. Any other recommendations for reasonably priced DVD in dash double din units?
