Error Question
How do I troubleshoot this AMX-4 Series issue: Display issues, trashy, scrolling or no display during charge?
Short Answer
Monitor LVLE +5 V with an oscilloscope for about 15 minutes and look for breakup/noise on the +5 V supply. If noise is evident, replace the LVLE.

Battery Charger Board failure is also possible; tap on relays to see if display failure occurs. Solution: replace LVLE Power Supply, Display kV/mA Charge Bar Board, Display Controller Board and/or Battery Charger Board as indicated by troubleshooting.
