I have an offer to buy a Yamaha CDX-1060 with a black display. I currently don't have access to the machine and don't know much about it other than that the display is completely black.
The seller explained that the remote isn't the original and could have set the display in an off mode and since the remote lacks the 'display' button, it might be a persistent mode that survives even when unpowered.
Is this true? If not, does anyone know if the display is a VFD that could've cracked and is for that reason unfixable? If it's another type of display, chances are that the fault may be fixable, perhaps a cracked PCB or a faulty display driver chip.
