I have a powershot G12 and I need help troubleshooting my issue. The problem is that somehow the image is not getting displayed on the screen.
When you turn the camera on you see a blank screen with the setting information displayed. Now, for some reason when you press down on the back middle of the camera the display lights up with an image. So clearly the LCD screen isn’t broken. I have managed to take a picture while pressing down and without pressing down. In playback mode the picture I took without pressing down shows up as a completely black image whereas the picture I took while pressing down shows up regularly even if I’m not pressing down on the camera.
I would be really grateful if someone could help me identify the component that is malfunctioning and/or provide any insight on how to fix this problem

Edit: can someone help me identify the type of screw used here. It looks like a mix between a Philips and a Robinson but It doesn’t really looks like either. Using just a Philips heads doesn’t work (I tried).
