Mike H Posted December 30, 2022 Share Posted December 30, 2022 The screen for my Aladdin display has died and am needing a working replacement. I have a 'spare' but it's locked and I don't have the 4 digit code to unlock it plus the screen needs to be calibrated and the numbers don't match up with the keypad display so I can't even enter all of the numbers even if I had them. I have contacted KENWOOD but they are of no help, just said they don't support it anymore and have no replacement models I could even upgrade to. Has anyone tried to replace just the monitor screen? Don't know if the monitor on the 'locked' receiver could be swapped over to the one with the dead monitor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
waterskier_1 Posted December 30, 2022 Share Posted December 30, 2022 I have added additional (larger) monitors to the Aladdin System. I'm not sure what all the functions of the Kenwood you are referring to, since mine was replaced by a previous owner. But as far as the Aladdin signals, they are just standard Composite Video (the Yellow RCA Connectors) - nothing fancy - no SVideo or HDMI. So, for the screen, any LCD display that accepts Composite Video will work. FIY, there are additional outputs (at least one, possibly two) on the "Aladdin Brain" for additional monitors. The Cameras feed the Aladdin Brain, which in turns supplies the output(s) for the displays, so this shouldn't affect a replacement screen. Note that the additional output all are the same, that is, if you select camera with the Aladdin Dash "Mouse", all the displays will show the camera. You can't have one display show Camera and another show Trip Data, or Engine Data, for example. I wanted a larger and better positioned display. -Rick N.

Big Dave Posted December 31, 2022 Share Posted December 31, 2022 There are guys on ebay that can put a new screen in for you if you send it to them. I did that to a pioneer touch screen radio I had. It was only 100.00 to replace the screen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would you be able to box it up and ship it? That would be awesome! Just let me know how much it will cost. Are you going to be at The Gathering at Lazydays in February by any chance? By the way, what did you replace yours with? 2 hours ago, Big Dave said: There are guys on ebay that can put a new screen in for you if you send it to them.

Johnny Mo Posted December 31, 2022 Share Posted December 31, 2022 It still works, as I mentioned you can have it, I'll box it up and get a shipping cost, I will need your address. I replaced it with an Alpine Halo 11". I had Brian from Brian's RV Videos do the install along with a new rear camera. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike H Posted December 31, 2022 Author Share Posted December 31, 2022 Greatly appreciated. You know, I may have seen him make a video about installing it. How do you like it and how reliable has it been? I'll see if I can send you a PM with my info. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
