    Hi,
    I have a CF-29 Mk3 fitted with a touchscreen but sadly the touchscreen
    does not work. After various tests & consultations with others on the forum it seems it needs a new touch panel and/or interface.

    Does anyone have such a thing available?

    (To suit a 13.3" screen).

    Thanks,
    Robert.

    Edit for clarity:
    I'm only looking for the touchscreen 'touch sensor' panel and it's interface, the actual display works perfectly.

    Robert... Do you see ANY image on the screen? Even a subdued one? Does it work on an external monitor? (Sorry if I missed you posting somewhere else.)

    Hi TB,

    it's purely the touchscreen facility that's dead, the display works great & the machine generally is otherwise fine.

    (Oops... discussion re. that fault may have been on the mailing list, not here..)

    Still looking if anyone finds any parts..

    I would consider a complete screen assembly, or one with a fault in the LCD / Backlight etc. as long as the touch sensor part was OK.
