Do you get a video image when using the recorder if you insert a tape, record some video and then play it back on a TV?

I realize that you can't see what you're recording, I'm just trying to establish whether the problem is with the screen or the motherboard or even the lens.

If you can view the recorded video on the tape, when connected to a TV, then the screen or the screen cable connection may be faulty.
