Ted,
A blank display is quite unusual. Does "Elecraft" display when the K2
is powered on?
First check the DC voltage at the anodes of D6 and D7. In receive D6
should be near 8 volts while D7 anode should be near zero volts.
If there is voltage at the anode of D7, the K2 is going into transmit.
It may be that there is a bad solder connection somewhere causing the
display problem. That could be on any of the K2 boards.

The rig has been working FB for over a year. Used it today as the alignment
receiver for another K2 being built. All was fine when that process started,
both rigs worked as they should, and then the display on 7637 just went blank.
Illuminated, but blank..
Hard to tell if anything else was affected since without any display
information at all I don’t know what the rig is doing or what mode it’s in.
