I have a couple devices (calculator & CD player) that exhibit the same
problem of missing digit segments. The connection to the LCD is not a
zebra
strip, but rather a type of tape with the traces on it. I can make
segments
come and go by working that tape, but I can't get them to stay. Has
anyone
had any luck repairing these? I hate to peal it loose as I figure that I
would never get it to stick properly again. But maybe that's the
solution?

I would try reticulated foam (sounds more impressive than kitchen pan
scourer) folded-up/ wedged-in /compressed against the casing.
