From the second eBay link (above):
First of all, this unit needs to be repair. I dropped the unit and broke the display nipple. I had the display replaced by Eutronix but while removing the display from the unit I damaged the display cable. Eutronix attempted to repair the display cable as well but were not successful.

After I installed the new display in the unit, the unit turns on but the display does not fully light up (see pic below). I figure the display cable is still damaged and/or some fuses need to be replaced. Regardless I got a new car and can no longer use the Empeg.

That's odd. Stu?

I recently revived a similarly "dead" player here, which had a horribly mangled display cable. I desoldered the original cable from the displayboard, cleaned out the through-holes, soldered in a 20-pin header, and then used a new ribbon cable with crimp-on 20 pin female connectors to complete the repair. Better than new!

Cheers
