Is there any programming?

No. With all repair options, all of your settings remain the same. For refurbihsed units, you can change your controls under the switch- setup menu.

How do I know this will fix my issue?

Check the list of common issues on this page, if you are experiencing one or more of them, our new screen is guaranteed to resolve it.

Why is this so much lower cost than buying a new unit?

When you buy a new unit, you are buying a lot of additional components like the wiring harness, boards, housings, that all do not need to be replaced. We focus on replacing only the parts that have failed to reduce costs.
