Can you see the display, but it is very (very) dim?  If so, the backlight bulbs have gone.  I had the same problem - Miles, I think, helped me out.  You "just" need to rmove the unit, unscrew (1/4 turn) the 3 bulbs and replace them.  If you check out the previous post under "OBC display" you should get some hints.
