Just had a very weird conversation with someone discussing an open source voice assistant, I asked about its privacy and they blocked me. This isn't very reassuring.

Look at the fuse (F7 label) in the centre of this photo.

It carries 20V DC to the backlight. Replace it and replace the LCD. Let there be light!
