I hope they can fix it for you.
I was only half joking about the dna screen, I have an SXK DNA60 Billet Box with a non working screen. It vapes fine but I am unable to change the settings.

Assume you've seen this thread Greigster & phtumshk, seems quite a few of the SKXs BBs are going pear shaped.

Ah, that will be me being a klutz copying and pasting the wrong page, here it is

Greigster ive just tried a new screen in my bb and it works.
so would appear it is juce in the screen that has killed it rather than juice in the board/switches.
im a bit dubious whether i want to chuck another 15 quid at this mod knowing its only going to die again,

EDIT; the switches are all waterproof jobies which is handy as it seems there is no seal at all in the pos pin.

but in all fairness there wasnt a lot of juice inside the mod, its just a shame the screens arent waterproof.

Odd,Greigster, as the name is correct in the link , but I can’t get it to go to that thread, which is called ‘help problem with Sxk billet box’

[beedee]

Greigster The thread is about three or four down from this one!

I doubt juice killed the screen, a too sharp fold in the cable will or juice could spoil the connection then a clean and replug should clear that, I could be wrong, but having lots of mods (not a bb) with these screens these are the only way they have gone wrong for me. And that has been rear for me, I dropped a 250 in the Thames in the summer and damaged the lipo and the charging circuit got damaged, but the screen is still in use.  I have had a few pif DNAs that just got soaked in juice and misbehaved, cleaning cleared the issues and I piffed them forward.

There was no juice on the conecction at all though the screen was deffinetly covered under the rubber gasket.

I have a DNA vapour shark and the screen died in a similar fashion after it sat in a pool of juice.

Luckily  these screens are easily avaliable/replaced but Ive taken to leaving the mod standing upside down now so any rouge juice or condensation doesnt drip all over the screen.

Yeah seen vapor sharks soaked, strip an ultrasonic worked for the 2 I had seen.

I tried cleaning the screen and board in 99.9% Isopropyl but although the mod still vapes at my settings on the SXK DNA60 Billet Box, the screen is totally blank (I have checked it is not in stealth mode, nothing showing on screen when I start-up/shut/down)
