Default Rigol scope LCD problem

Use circuit cooler on suspected areas after warm up to recreate the
problem.


Good idea, but keep the cooler spray away from the CCFL lamp(s). I
sprayed one while it was running and instantly cracked the tube. I
don't know if this is a one-time problem, or is typical, but it might
pay to be careful. Maybe a hot air gun (on low heat) when the panel
is cool, or just massaging the circuitry looking for intermittents,
might be equally productive.
