I haven't got a T'bolt running at the moment but the modified monitor boots
up ok and then flashes "No Message" as I would expect.
After adding all three series diodes I measured 5.0

If one wanted to use the RS232 interface to a computer at the same time

Further to earlier comments I have now traced the full schematic of the
8051 replacement processor board in the iCruze display.
The schematic is so close to Didier's original that I don't think it's
necessary to provide a copy but could do so if required.
Differences are described below and

Hi:
I've added a photo of the component side of the 8051 PCB at:
http://www.prc68.com/I/ThunderBolt.shtml#8051PCB
J1-2 is connected directly to pin 6 of the uC which is also connected to
the output of the 78D05 regulator.
Have Fun,

Does anyone have a picture of the Board showing where these diodes go ?
Thanks, Dick, W1KSZ

Hi All
As there still seemed to be unanswered questions regarding the circuitry of
these I've separated the two PCBs from one of mine to determine exactly
what is going on.
Whether or not the regulator circuit is based in any way on the iCruze
original processor board I don't know but it'
