Hello. My LCD backlight stop working after water came into the camera (snow). With a flash light I was able to determine it is the backlight since I was able to detect some menu items on the screen. I bought a replacement LDC unit, my thinking was that the backlight itself was damaged and a new one would do the trick. After replacing the screen, I have the same probleme. So I suppose my problem come from deeper in the camera. The camera itself do not command the backlight to turn on. Is there something I can do? any more troubleshooting?

Thanks!
