They're all discrete 7 segment displays, so there's a really good chance of replacing a single display digit.

The problem *may* be related to something other than the 7 seg display, but I'd probably;ly try replacing it first and see if that fixed the problem.

This looks like the part. Yours looks like a common anode display.

I can't find that part anywhere, but armed with this information, I or someone else probably can. I'm a bit busy to do it right now.

Steve Thanks,

I have noticed LED displays can be common anode and common cathode, anyway to figure out which one I would need?

As I said, yours looks like common anode. (the G in the part number suggests it is)

That's not the only thing, you also need to have the same pinout.

If you want to go searching, look for devices with the same digit size and pin positions, then ensure the pins are connected the same way.
