Default Re: I found it! A very sorry looking MK14.

If the 'current' display is unpluggable then maybe make the original display 'pluggable' in the same way by adding a pin row connector or whatever matches? My own issue II PCB has an 18-way male pin row connector, the original display has a right-angle 18 way male pin row connector and the two are joined together by two SIL female sockets (like the ones used on Arduinos) soldered pin to pin at an angle of about 45 degrees and heatshrinked.

It means I can use the original display, but can easily unplug it to test or use other displays. You might actually find it more convenient to be able to plug the small display in while you are nursing the system back to health.
