Creality Halot Sky Resin 8.9″ LCD Change Out
Lab Work – LCD Screen
…I know, we started the last post with “Before you start your own 3d printing…”; this post does follow suit. Looks like a bad LCD screen, lcd screen needs to be replaced, same for the film stretched over the resin vat or just some resin damage for that matter.
We swap out the mono LCD screen on the deck of the Halot Sky while we wait for a new FEP resin vat. Please note, if you’re looking to swap out resin liners (if you can find the correct ones for CL-89, buy a number of them, cause they are hard to find when the global stock is low).
Swapped LCD Screen
Swap details: deconstruct, remove all screws, cover and metal panels… careful to disconnect wire and ribbon cable for the touchscreen (just be careful). Replace screen ribbon in the quick connect, construct, careful to replace ribbon and black wire for the touchscreen.
Two, clean up any resin residue, pour over and/spillage now, I think this is where we went wrong. Spillage got under the screen as you can see in the featured image for the article. Have a bottle of alcohol available to make this clean up effort as effortless and easy as it can be. It took about 15-20 mins overall, like I said, lots of spillage. Anyhow, lastly, remove the ribbon tape surround and a few screws gets you access to the LCD screen. Just take your time, easy if you’re careful to not rip the LCD tape, or misplace a screw. You can always find new pieces for lost items, just check out the Spare Parts or our go to for parts over on the eBay Shop. We will have a link to our warez, it’s taking sometime, logistics issue as you can imagine. We sell our wares from time to time there as well. Check em out, we’ve got some Stephen King books up there now. Lastly, for those who just need the FEP release film, and for our future reference – FEP Release Film. A side note, FEP film is apparently hard to find these days, eBay might be your best bet to find spare parts, consumables and film. Cheers.
