CANON T90 LED DEAD

    HELLO,

    I dug out my old 35mm SLR Canon T90 - it had been well stored. Replaced batteries. All good except the top plate LED doesn't work. Is there anything I can do about this after all those years without seeking to get it replaced (or another camera)?

    Was there any way I could have prevented or do LEDs just wear ago long-term?

    Thank you.

    I assume you mean the LCD (screen).

    I’ve no personal experience, but this is from the Wikipedia page on the T90:

    ”One issue is with LCD (liquid crystal display) life, a problem not unique to the T90. LCD displays age and wear out at a varying rate dependent on environmental conditions, use and other factors. Commonly quoted lifespans are about five to ten years;[3] thus, many T90s will have displays nearing the end of their lives, even if they have been replaced. The spare part is no longer available and no third-party replacement has emerged.”
