Easy Solar II GX screen has gone dark. Unit is inverting but nothing is readable on the screen.

New unit. I have been using VE Configure to set up for install. VE connect and VE configure both communicate with it. I can't see anywhere to adjust the screen contrast or brightness.

Hi @Robert Bazalgette

What happens when you reset the GX unit? (with the reset button)

Which is the re-set button, do you mean the button to the right of the LCD screen ?

If you mean that button to the right of the screen, Nothing happens. I have tried press and hold. I have turned the inverter off and on. I have removed the 48 volt supply and put it back. Nothing makes any difference to the screen.

Hi @Daniël Boekel (Victron Energy Staff) Do you have any ideas I can try to restore the LCD Display, as discussed ?

Did you try the reset button (P) ? and if so, what happens (on the screen) when you push it?
