Akai S1000 / S1100 samplers

sounds like the whole LCD is bad. if the backlight is bad you can
stiill read the LCD under a good light.

it *could* be something much worse though.

if I remember correctly, the s1000 boots up with test wave forms in
memory.  you should be able to get it to make some noise by letting it
boot up,  then pressing the sample key then the play key.(I'm not at
home so I can't be sure I'm remembering correctly)

or alternativly use the test menu as described in the service manual.

I'd. try to get some sound out of it before buying a new LCD.

ewan.
