Gordon, with Pixl.setContrast did you manage to make it fully perfectly visible again, or only somewhat?
I didn't try. Honestly at some point you're just going to have to buy one and figure this stuff out yourself :)
setContrast itself may not do it, but it is possible to use Pixl.lcdw to set another value which is to do with the drive voltage, and that will almost certainly do it.
