Repair Lego NXT Brick LCD

I’ve posted a series of images to show how I was able to repair a Lego NXT Brick that had the LCD fail (Note: It still played the familiar startup tune, but the LCD was not displaying properly – at all). Please remember that doing this will absolutely void any warranty on the NXT Brick.

I know that others have used different ways of re-soldering the surface mounted capacitors, all I had was a magnifying glass, Weller soldering iron, and a steady hand.

I would suggest this is a last chance repair!
