My kids air hockey table scoreboard display lost part of the 7 segment LED displays. Segment "B" I believe on all of the displays, the clocks, home, and visitors score.
I had opened up the unit years ago and replaced the speaker so I thought I would just open it up and find a loose solder joint and fix it. Well, couldn't find a broken joint. Problem is intermittent. I thought I "fixed" it by pressing on various parts of the board when the displays lit back up. But then they went out again and I am unable to pin point a bad connection. I took out the board and re-flowed every joint on it but same problem exists. Can sometimes get it to light back up but ultimately goes out again. Looks like same segment is out on every display. There are three 7 segment displays on each side of the scoreboard a count down timer, a visitors score, and the home score.
I have looked around and am unable to source a replacement scoreboard.
Any suggestions?
