I guess it depends on your symptoms?

Mine were that the display changed when it warmed up, so I tried to
systematically use freezer spray sparingly on the various areas of the LCD
boards. There appear to be at least a couple of boards, but the main one has
some large caps and adjustable pots.

The basic idea is to see which areas changed the display when the freezer is
applied.
