    I only have pictures of removing the body. If you need them I can email you. Why are you taking apart the screen assembly?

    Hey Outie ,

    It won't power ( battery blink yellow power will flash green once yet nothing more ) .

    I hear a click noise from the lcd area and wanted to check if anything is loose there , even if not I take it as a learning experience .

    With 3 Sonys , have you ever taken the LCD assembly apart ?

    Everything but the LCD...

    That doesn't sound like a LCD problem though. Have you tried a different AC adapter?
