GBA SP powers up, has backlight but no image.

Hello! My GBA SP AGS-001 powers up and has working backlight (toggeling backlight works as well) but shows no image.

The screen is working on another device. I also tryed different Screens. The Board is a C/AGS-CPU-11 - AGS 001. Since the screens are working on other 001 devices. I am clueless... I also wanted to replace the power switch. But before I do this I wanted to ask you guys if it's a hopeless rescue action.

Answer this question I have this problem too

Is this a good question?

I thought that maybe the socket for the screen has a broken pin or something...or maybe a gpu power issue. But I am not that deep into this. Is there any fuse between the ribbon cable and the gpu?

It could be a broken socket on the motherboard, or a fried GPU.
