Re: Sony DSC-S40 white LCD screen problem

Bob Allen Posted Jul 26, 2006, in response to:Bob Allen

Quick update: I fixed the camera myself as follows: 1. Hold camera firmly in left hand 2. Smartly rap front of camera with knuckles of right hand on the "Cyber-shot" logo. It worked, now the LCD is working again for free. Guess I don't need to pay Sony $111.00 for repair service. Bob Allen

    For work purposes, I received a Sony Cyber-shot DSC-S40 camera. After just a few months of dealing with the screen fading in and out with lines across the screen, I would tap it, etc. This worked each time until one day when it totally blanked out to white. I was not able to use it any longer. This was two years ago. I always felt totally responsible and wanted to replace the camera but did not try to actually purchase another camera until this summer. I went on E-Bay and bought the same model. When it got here it had some of the same lines across the screen. I tapped it and it would come back. After a couple of uses, it eventually did the exact thing the old one did. I was so upset. So I took a chance to type in Google for a solution. To my surprise I found one. Then in total shock the solution worked!!!! Yeah!!! However, I do wonder what would be the permanent solution? Thanks for the help.

I picked it up and came to find out what the problem was. I search for sony and stumbled upon your post. Thank you so much. My son is going to be very happy he is going to you it for our upcoming vacation to FLA, Thank a million Mary Ellen

    Bob, Does this work for the Sony Cyber-shot DSC-T70 as well? I unfortunately do not have the camera in front of me to test. When I touch the screen it makes sounds and reacts as if nothing were wrong, however the screen is white. It works and takes pictures though. Any assistance would be great! Jayson
