ProControl Time Counter Display (how to fix or where to get)
 
Does anyone know how to fix the time counter display on a digidesign procontrol or where I can buy a replacement? The bottom left segment of the minutes is not working. It affects the 0, 2, 6, and 8. The link to the video showing it is below. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks for the reply. Do you by chance know where I would purchase one?

I got a pro control main unit for parts to replace the time counter display on my other main unit but don't know how to and don't want to go in blind and break something. Can anyone explain how to switch out the time counter display from one unit to another? Thanks in advance for the help

You need to remove the meter bridge from the main frame to access the pcb that holds all the metering and counter display. Each digit of the counter is a separate device that is soldered to the board. Here's some pics of the pcb. (pics are upside down)

Did you obtain the Para Light digits for replacement? If so did they match the fit and color/brightness of the originals? I too need a replacement but I'm thinking of using another color, or I might stick to stock.
