Thanks Don,
I installed the LCD last night and I used the remaining spacers
(that I hadn't lost) and stacked on top of one of them the spacer used
for the switches (so that the larger switch spacer would clear the cut
off leads. It looks good to me, flat, level, and no visible gap, when
held
Thanks,
I spent almost 2 hours looking for the missing pieces, without
success. There are several alternatives I can think of to use as
temporary spacers. Fortunately this has been the only mishap during
assembly, and hopefully the last.

Ron,
You need only some kind of spacers that are the thickness of 2 PC boards
stacked one upon the other.
While it is convenient to have the proper spacers that fit over the
leads of the backlight assembly, that is not necessary. Find two pieces
the thickness of the PC board material used by
Hi Ron,
Check Figure 5-9 on page 27 of the rev. H manual - the spacers are used only
temporarily to set the height of the backlight assembly prior to soldering
its pins in place. I suppose any other means you might devise to keep the
backlight 1/8 inch off the front panel board and parallel to it
While assembling my new K2, I've lost some of the LED backlight
spacers that are broken off of the Spacer Set PC board. Ref. Figure 5-1
on page 23 of the assembly manual.
I don't see where the LED backlight spacers are used, are they? If
so I should order a replacement.
