[QUOTE="Roy Andrews, post: 215971, member: 15263"] I got my TM-8 back up & running again, all seems well. When I took it apart, I didn't notice that one of the 3 connectors for the touch screen was a solid copper ribbon, I'd mistakenly thought it to be a standard multi-wire ribbon cable. When it came time to reassemble, I was utterly unable to get that copper ribbon back into it's connector. It is fragile & unwieldy. I think I might have got it in contact with the pins (or not) then I just Kapton taped it down. So far, no issues with the touch screen. I'm just guessing, but I think that data / signal ground is actually in the real multi-wire ribbon cables, and this solid copper thing is just the shield ground. I've never seen this done on any laptop, tablet or phone, so I'm hoping it's just QSC being overly cautious in their shielding of the touch panel ribbon cable. Also, do any of you have a rather recurring problem with the 6 pin plug of the power connector, whereby you need to take a needle or jewelers screwdriver, and massage the fingers of the connectors in towards the center of the hole to make them contact solidly again? If so, have you been able to solve this permanently? I was contemplating taking a 6 pin XLR set, and mounting the male panel side in the mixer, and then re-wiring the power brick to match using the female wire side of the XLR. I'd love to hear if anyone has this problem and how or if they solved it... [/QUOTE]
