If you bought it used, it might have been exposed to a environment that
is dirty. Although it could be any number of reasons for the problem,
I had a similar problem with a camcorder and cleaning the ribbon
contacts inside the camera fixed it ( it was dropped in water by the
previous owner). I am not sure if this would be your first step
though. Lets see what the more experienced and knowledgeable people
here have to say first. Plus my cause and effect might be due to
reasons unknown to me and I got lucky.
