The unit has worked flawlessly until today. I powered it on as usual and the display no longer is back lit and the screen is full of everything that I guess it can possibly display, it won’t change any of the display, The button are Unresponsive. I plan to call the manufacture but was hoping someone would know something about this and give me some insight. Thank you.

I had an ST60 do something like that, turned out to be water inside, after disassembly and drying it worked fine on reboot. The case screws had been overtightened when built cracking the plastic and after 10 years enough had accumulated to short the circuit board.

I think it was rainwater between navpod face and the case, which was cracked in the upper corner, didn't take much inside to reach the bottom of circuit board. I was pretty surprised when it worked after drying.
