Coolpix S6500 is charged. Lens moves in and out, but the screen remains dark You hear it taking pictures, but no images
Hi, Can you view the menu screens OK? If so or even if not take a picture (I realize that you cannot “see” the picture in the LCD screen) and then download it to a computer and see if the image is OK. If the picture is not OK but you can see the menu screen OK you most probably have a faulty CCD sensor. If the picture is OK but you cannot see anything on the LCD screen then most probably the LCD screen is faulty. If the picture is not OK and you cannot see the menu screens either then perhaps the motherboard is faulty Here is a link to the Ifixit guide to repair a Coolpix s6300.
