This is
how I resolved certain camera issues. User assumes all
responsibility and risk
Problem: Backlight doesn't work cannot read
what's on the LCD.
Verification: Turn Camera on, Screen is very
dark but if held under a light you can see that the LCD is working.
Possible Cause: Dead fuse.
Location:
The fuse is circled in yellow

Possible Solution: Use
a tweezers and touch each side of the fuse Don't touch any other
components!!! Turn on the camera if Backlight works then
follow the next step
Take caution not to over heat
and damage the PCB or nearby components. Cover area with
tape. With batteries OUT, You can solder a piece of wire over
the fuse .
