    Be careful when opening because there may be fragile connections, but this video gives you an idea

    You basically need to pry the thing apart.

    After it is apart, post clear focused pictures after reading

          What brand/type of capacitors did you use to replace the bad ones?

          Can you see the display if you shine a flashlight on it?

          Or do you just see a black screen (no display image)?

          When you power off, then power on, does the display work for 2 seconds and then go black?

          Does the power LED stay green?

          Also, it would help if you post clear focused pictures of all your boards (top down, front and back) after reading these instructions ...

              Check for fuses in the power supply which may have failed.

                And there may fuses on the inverter board as well.

                Some fuses are picofuses and can be spotted on boards with the identifier pf. For example, on the PCB it may say pf700.

                A good fuse should read 0.3 ohms on your multimeter. Always measure fuses with power off and unplugged.

                    Glad it works. Those ribbon cables can be tricky if you don't push them all the way in. And some are so fragile, you can't push very hard.

                    I managed to break off one of those snaps by lifting them. It works, but I have to tape down that snap.
