the most  common defect amongst most if not all Savants is that the pieces no
longer show at all.
this defect can take one of  two forms:
1)the screen is totally blackened or clouded
the LCD crystals that used to show the pieces, has now covered each square in
the screen

2)the screen is totally blank and no pieces show at all .

there are other defects with the screen,function keys etc..but the clouded or
blank screen is the one defect common to all present day Savants
