Hero5black front display dead. [ New ]

[petert631]

My hero5black has a dead lcd display on the front it seems humid inside, works fine otherwise but I really have to listen to know it is on when I am surfing or when can´t see the back display. It sometimes blink with just a random pattern. It has work great for me until 1 month ago. I have used it almost every day.

Hi @petert631,

If you have some water in that front screen it is going to be best to get in touch with our Support Team directly. You can get in touch by Phone or Chat: https://gopro.com/help/ContactUs

Best,

Ryan

It's awesome that GoPro Support is working with you on resolving this. For the future, you might want to consider signing up for GoPro Plus if you haven't already. For $4.99 a month you not only get the cloud service for storing your photos and videos (which is pretty sweet since the camera auto uploads when charging), but you also are entitled to two, no questions asked, replacement cameras if yours accidentally gets damaged or is out of warranty.
