Title: TM 5 Screen Flickering
Post by: cookie1 on August 04, 2015, 06:21:52 am
Has this happened to anyone else?  It happened to me the other day and now it is doing it again. As the machine is working the screen keeps flickering, not pleasant to watch. Grrrrrr  :: :'(

I haven't had this problem YET Cookie.The only message I've had on the screen is that I can weigh ingredients up to speed 4 while its mixing.

I'm pleased to say I haven't, but I hope I'm not jinxing myself  :-[

Yes I have had this problem too. It happened several times early on but has not happened now for several weeks. Maybe water on the screen can cause it, but I'm not sure.

It happens when the screen is wet or dirty, so just give it a wipe and it will be fine

Thank you both for joining and giving me that information. I hope you will continue to post and tell us about your thermo adventures, and great recipes.

Thank goodness an easy fix.
I have to say I have had brilliant service from my new rep, my machine wouldn't recognise my chip and my rep came straight over and replaced it for me, literally was at my house in 5 minutes.
And secondly I may have overloaded my blade, Thermomix replaced it for me, free.
I'm a "Happy little Vegemite".

All great news. I think that they are pretty good in that line.
