DIY - replace defective membrane keypads or displays yourself

You can also replace membrane keypads or displays yourself!

With our spare parts we offer you the possibility to replace defective electronics by yourself.

In this blog post, we explain what DIY means and how you can replace defective membrane keypads or displays of well-known agricultural machinery brands yourself.

Your advantage: You save costs for a new unit or a repair. You can find all step-by-step installation instructions in our YouTube channel.

 

What does DIY actually mean?

DIY is the English abbreviation for "do it yourself". Defective electronics or components from agriculture, which do not necessarily have to be repaired by a professional, you can also replace yourself with our instructions.

 

How does the exchange of defective membrane keypads works?

Foils with small icons are stuck on buttons such as the John Deere digital speedometer. Due to wear and tear, these can break, tear or peel off. 

For some parts, you can save yourself a repair and replace the membrane keypad yourself.

  1. Have the appropriate tools ready
  2. If necessary, carefully open the defective components
  3. Glue the new keyboard only to surfaces that have been cleaned beforehand

You can find the exact instructions for each individual product in our YouTube channel.

How difficult is it to replace a display?

A certain amount of technical knowledge and manual dexterity is required to replace defective displays. If you follow our instructions and all the steps, you can do almost nothing wrong. The right tool is important for replacing the display. In our YouTube videos you can see what tools are needed.

What are the causes for a display replacement?
Often a display needs to be replaced because after a few years of use it tarnishes from the inside or has a crack and is therefore no longer legible.
