Anyone know what type of screen the nGauge uses? My screen is cracked, touch function still works but I can only see half the screen. Someone had posted an eBay listing to a replacement screen several years back however that listing no longer exists.
I've got my nGauge taken apart, and can see that the lcd panel has the LCD, backlight, and touch screen all coming together on the same flat cable. The cable has 51 pins, with what looks like .3mm pitch based on measuring the cable and dividing by 51.
I assumed that a touch screen would be a pretty standard off the shelf electronic item, but I can't for the life of me find any touch screens that have 51 pins. Does anyone know where I can find a replacement?
In reality, I don't keep this thing mounted at all, and I have only ever used it to flash my tune. If I can't find a replacement screen that will work, is there a way to utilize the tuner through a computer? Like have the ngauge plugged into the car and PC at the same time and control it via the PC?
Thanks for any suggestions
