Well, what I mean is remove the front panel and disconnect its flat flex from the mainboard. Then plug in the power on the rear side. You may observe that the display is coming back alive. If so, the front panel PCB or the flat flex cable has a fault. Don't worry, running a Boom without the front panel PCB attached is no problem. You can still control it with the IR remote unless it is actually dead. Please also measure the voltages between ground (gold plating at one of the five screw positions on the mainboard) and the leftmost three pins of the display, then also between ground and the rightmost three pins. Each set of three pins is shorted together so they all have the same potential. It should be +5V on the left and between 2.5 and 4V on the right. If you have 5V on the right side, the display power circuitry is broken and everything else is probably still working but you can't see anything. If you like, you can send me the Boom for diagnosis. I cannot promise anything but it might be worth a try. Please send me a PN if you are interested.
