Logitech Harmony 890 Pro - Blank LCD Screen

I have the same problem: LCD is blank, glows blue, but no icons. The remote still controls the equipment. It's just over a year old (i.e. ...out of warranty). I called support and as soon as I told them problem, they offerred me a 50% off coupon on a new remote, and did not even try to troubleshoot it. This leads me to believe that this is a known problem that they just don't want to go to the trouble of fixing, they would rather you buy a new remote. I've updated the remote's software and firmware but that did not help. As a last ditch effort, I have a new battery coming and will try that next.

Replacement screens can be found on ebay for around $25-$30. I was having the same problem as everybody else, and none of the solutions posted online worked for me - software, firmware, battery pulls, safe mode, etc. I replaced the screen in about 5 minutes and was back up and running.... I almost bought a new remote, but figured I'd try the $26 screen first.... Glad I did..

Blank Blue Screen, but buttons still work

I had the same problem and when I took the remote apart the ribbon connecting the lcd screen to the remote controller board was sheared. The remote was dropped and the impact caused two of the traces on the ribbon to tear.
