So the backlight on my 60 mk2 has not been working for a while. I'm pretty sure it's not dead as it used to come after I opened to the case for whatever reason (something loose?). It doesn't turn on at all now. I'm guessing it's the wire from the inverter to the screen, but the connection seems ok and I have no real way of testing it. Is the end of the wire at the screen soldered to the small board? Is this a common sort of cable I could pick somewhere. Anything else to try?


Also the volume knob on my 60 is insanely loose, but I don't see any way of tightening it. You can see from the photo that the previous owner had to tapped to the side of the case.

Any advice, comments appreciated. Cheers,
