- In this video I’ll show you how I fixed the blank white screen on a Sony HANDYCAM DCR-SX15E.
In this case the cause was a fractured screen flex cable and I replaced it with one I purchased on eBay.
For some reason I was only able to buy two flex cables as that’s the way they are sold and they came from China at a cost of £7.80 delivered.
Bit of a fiddle to do but once you have done one I’d say if you needed to do it again it would be much quicker.
Thank you. I have the same problem with a Canon.
Hopefully the video has helped you in some way and many thanks for your comment.
hello!, i have the same problem, but i can touch the screen, but the screen is blank white, did you know why that can happen?
If it's the same model and the same problem then I'd say it's more than likely a broken flex cable as detailed in the video, very common fault. Many thanks.
thank you !
You're most welcome, I hope the video was of help and many thanks.
@@DARTraderMediaProductions unfortunately i’m not as skilled or have as much patience as you but you definitely helped me realize what the problem with my camera is and i’ll make sure to visit the shop soon ! thanks for such an in depth tutorial 🤟🏼🤍
@@jaini9e It may be expensive to have repaired at the shop but they should be able to provide an estimate of the cost. Good luck and hopefully it won't be too bad.
@@DARTraderMediaProductions Hi, what specification of flex cable did you buy? How would I go about buying one for my camera - seems to be the exact same model coincidentally. If you could attach an amazon link that would be very useful as it takes less time to arrive. Thanks!
also, since you got two flex cables would it be possible to send me one, I can pay for it and shipping etc, kind of urgent as I am going on holiday in a week and would ideally like to use the camera. I have looked online for other options however they take a while to come. Royal mail is fairly cheap and I would come before the holiday giving me time to fix it. Thanks
Hey there I recently bought a canon powershot A620 from mercari, that needs repair. I put in batteries and the screen is just white, like in your video. Do you think it’s the same problem and solution? As in your video, because I really wanna fix, but in my location their is no repair shops that fix cameras especially old ones
It could be the flex cable to the screen but I don't know that model and considering it's spec may not be worth spending too much on. Then there's the question of is the cable available ? If you can get the flex cable and it's cheap enough then maybe you could take the camera apart and check for breaks in the cabe before you buy the replacement. Hope this helps and many thanks.
@@DARTraderMediaProductions will open the camera up tmr and see. Thank you and appreciate your reply. Have a great night 🙏🏽
@@lamelalo6444 Take care when opening and note position of screws etc. I usually take a photo using my phone as I disassemble so I know where everything goes.
@@DARTraderMediaProductions it’s to late 😭 I threw it away I couldn’t fix it I have o experience
@@lamelalo6444 That's a shame but that's the way it is sometimes. Many thanks.
Nope its very difficult task for me I cant fix it nice watching. Regards
I must admit it's not the easiest job that's for sure. I always think what's the worse that can happen, it's no good as it is so may as well have a go. I don't think it would be economical to take it to a repair shop so may as well give it a go. Many thanks for your great comment.
