FT-840 Display issue

I've got an 840 where the frequency display just dropped a digit.
Obviously the display normally would show 7.000.00 mhz, but now is showing 7.000.0

The last digit just went out. There is no flashing of the display. The radio seems to work fine otherwise.
The digit did not gradually dim/fade and then disappear. Yesterday the display was perfect, and now its missing a digit.

Any chance there is a button depressed accidently to cause this rather than a problem with the display itself?

Thanks for any insight

    Hello gentlemen and Ladies. I have the dreaded RCI-2990 receive issue where my radio gets distorted when people get close to my location. I found the C90 Capacitor, but I can not for the life of me find the C89 capacitor. Can or does anyone have a picture of the exact location of C89 ? Thank you in advance, Wes
