SERVICING THE LOCKER ROOM CLOCK

While your locker room clock was designed for years of trouble-free operation, some problems may occasionally occur.  Electro-Mech Scoreboard Company offers onsite service in some areas.  In other areas, we can help you contact an independent service technician.  In areas in which service is not available from Electro-Mech Scoreboard Company, we will make every effort to answer your questions.  Our trained personnel at Electro-Mech Scoreboard Company are ready to answer your questions from Monday to Friday during the hours of 8 AM to 5 PM Eastern Standard Time.  Be sure to know your locker room clock model number when calling.  Locker room clock replacement parts are always available.  Damaged parts can usually be repaired at a significant cost savings.  Our convenient toll free number is listed at the bottom of every page in this manual.

COMPONENT REPLACEMENT

LED Digits And Indicators Replacement

The LEDs that form digits are soldered on circuit boards mounted behind the locker room clock face.  Do not attempt to replace individual LEDs.  In case of a malfunction, the entire LED circuit board must be removed.  To avoid damage to the LED driver module, always turn off the power to the locker room clock when removing or replacing LED digits.  Figure 5 shows the components of a LED digit assembly.
