Display on WH32ep is not working
« on: April 22, 2024, 07:46:35 AM »
The screen on my wh32ep started acting up and not showing normally. So far, the temp and humidity from the sensor is still working.
Temps have been lows in the mid 30's f at night to highs in the 60's f during the day.

Have to wonder how long it will continue to work..

How old is your WH32-EP ?
Mine showed the same phenomenon - the LCD panel stopped displaying after 2+ years (it looked as if water had entered which was of course not the case), but the readings were not impacted.
Ecowitt sent me a replacement display (very easy to replace) on request along with my next order.

Interesting. My wh32ep is 2 1/2 years old. I'll reach out to Ecowitt about a new screen. Thanks

The new screen is on the way. I can do easy, assume one needs to open up the case and pop out/in the screen. Is it a plug in /out screen? Or will this require soldering?

no soldering involved - just remember how you took it out - put the new one in in reverse order - make sure it's fitting tighly for the numbers to appear ...

You can take one of your WH31 and open it to see how the display is connected ...
