Default Futaba 14MZ Display Problems

My 14Mz diplay has progressively got worse over the last six months from an operational point of view. it is requiring more and more pressure with the display pen to get it to change between options or menus. Further, it does not always make a selection change in exactly the same spot on the display, sometimes up in the top right hand side of a button, in other cases in the middle and for other buttons totally elsewhere! I have tried to calibrate the screen, but it wont even let me do that, I end up just switching it off! Any ideas? suggestions? gratefully accepted.

It needs the touchscreen updated. Send it in. Mine works awesome now. Better than it was new.

Thanks for that.......I thought it might be a simple resetting exercise or perhaps a download of some sort
Cheers

There is a calibration menu. Try to calibrate it first to see if that helps. Did this to a friends and it works just like it should.
