Sony DCR-HC32 LCD Touch Screen Panel.

Greetings fellow Usenet citizens.



Unable to get LCD touch panel functions to work after replacing theflip out LCD screen.



Sony DCR-HC32 digital camcorder.



The LCD was cracked by accident.



I obtained another one from Sony DAPC.



Replacement installation seemed to go fine.



Screen turns on, lights up, shows a picture, even reverses when the flip out is turned 180 degrees.



Why doesn't the touch screen work anymore?



Have tried pushing the 'reset' button. Unable to perform calibration because the touch panel must be working first.



Perhaps one of the flat ribbon cables is not fully inserted into the connector? If so, then wouldn't the screen fail to work at all until everything is perfect?



Any help will be grandly appreciated.



Thanks in advance.



Did the new screen come with the touch panel, or did you remove it from the old display?

The LCD requires a separate touchscreen that is placed in front of the LCD.

Hi Jack.

Thanks for your prompt reply.

I figured it out.

The flat ribbon cable connectorfor the touch screen was inserted into its socket on the IC board upside down.

After you said to look at the old screen I eaxam>

the

LCD.

OK, great that you got it working.

I was not sure if the touch screen came with it or not.
