LCD screen does not turn on anymore

LCD screen does not turn on anymore

There seems to be a loose contact somewhere (or s.th. worse), but after a while working only once in a while, the LCD screen now doesn't work anymore at all. I've tried every kind of twisting rotating etc to eventually get back some contact, but without any success. Now, if I am lucky that it is only a loose contact, maybe one could fix it when opening the whole thing. Hence my question if someone has ever opened this camera, as I'm a bit afraid of breaking it when I try to do so, not being able to put it back together again.

It sounds like a broken cable more than a loose cable. If you are not comfortable in taking delicate small objects apart, I would take it to a repair shop and let them fix it for you. Good Luck to you.

Try this, turn the camera to TV mode and set time to 15 seconds. Take a picture and after about 7 seconds open the battery cover to break contact from power, close the battery door and if the camera does not start up on its own turn it on. you may have to do this upto about 5 times or so before the screen will work but eventually it will. this fix is temporary and to make it permanent you need to take a couple of hundred photos, its worth a try
