There probably isn't one :-( On the bright side, the fault sounds like
a dodgy contact somewhere, so it's not inconceivable that a
component-level repair firm *might* (with luck and a following wind) be
able to coax some life out of it.
Of course, it's entirely possible that the open circuit is somewhere
within the structure of the screen, in which case you're most likely
buggered. :-(
