Middlesex County, Ontario | Touch screens can be unresponsive when very cold, or if your fingers are heavily calloused or dirty. Make sure your fingers are clean, use your left hand (less calloused), or try some kids fingers. Bring the monitor inside to get it warm, get heat in the cab for an hour, or carefully take a hair dryer to it. If those don't work, try a soft reset, if that doesn't work, try a hard reset, if that doesn't work, try warranty, if that doesn't work, agexpress can replace the touch screen.
I have one of those touch screen pen stylus things. Works better around screen edges. Couple bucks on eBay, handy for frustrating situations like this, keep it in the armrest.

NW Saskatchewan | Had the same thing happen last spring before seeding. Read lots on the internet, tried everything that was suggested, but wound up sending it away for repair through CaseIH dealer. They replaced the screen, sounds like a common problem on the 750. Can't remember the cost, think it was around the $700 CAD mark. Dealer gave us a loaner to use, just had to call Omnistar and transfer the subscription but it took about a month to get it back. I believe they sent it to some place in Manitoba. Loaner was free, and we hadn't even bought it from them, it was a New Holland. |

*#*Instructions*#* T15 Torx bit Phillip Screw driver Flat Plade screw drivers
 Take your flat blade screw driver and remove the rubber side guards as depicted. They pop right off with a little force. You will notice a torx screw is hidden underneath these rubber guards which needs to be removed.
 Use torx T15 to remove all screws from the back
 Remove this connector to to allow separation from the back enclosure.
1. Disconnect this ribbon cable circled in pink. This is the touch panel's ribbon cable 2. Remove all torx screws circled in yellow 3. Now lift the assembly away from the front bezel 4. Clean and wipe any dust and debris build up from the front bezel 5. Pry the defective touch panel evenly away from the LCD screen. Pry with gentle force. Take your time. Eventually the panel will peel and pop right off.
 1. Lay the new touch panel onto the front bezel in the correct orientation so that the ribbon connector and be installed. Try to lay the touch panel onto the front bezel as square as possible. 2. Lay the LCD assembly on top of the touch panel while also keeping the torx screw holes lined up. 3. Evenly tighten torx screws in a criss-cross fashion. Do not over tighten! 4. Reconnect the Ribbon cable for the touch screen panel circled in pink from image above 5. Reconnect the Cable circled in yellow from image above 6. lay the back enclosure on top and fasten the remaining torx screws and press the side rubber guards in place. 7. Power on device and go into the calibration settings.
There is a short cut to get to the screen calibration by pressing and holding the power button and to top brightness button during the boot-up loading screen during the second loading progress bar once it reaches just passed 50%. This is considered a "Soft Reset"
Soft/Hard Reset
If you can't get the short cut to work, getting to the calibration menu can be a little tricky since the new touch screen won't be calibrated. You may have to press "blindly" around the screen until the touch screen can find the button you wish to press. Example: You may have to press an inch away to the left or right, above or below of the button you wish to press. You may want to use something more precise such as the end of a pencil eraser or a stylus pen during calibration. Once calibration is complete. It should be good as new.
This is my technique of replacing the touch screen. These instructions are here to help you build confidence in doing this task. However, I am not liable or responsible for the success of the installation.
A unique symptom of a faulty touchscreen is also when you initially bootup the display and you reach a screen "Finalizing firmware upgrade" "Please wait while the display finalizes the firmware upgrade. This process may take a few minutes." You then get to the point where your finger presses are also not recognized. The touchscreen has "shorted out" and caused a problem with the bootup sequence. A new touchscreen will also fix this problem.
