Hey fellas,

I have a iphone 5S that had water damage. There was some corrosion on the board near the lcd connectors, but I cleaned it. The phone seems to operate just fine expect that the back light from the screen will not power up...although if I look close I can still see the icons and the time and everything else on screen. It's just that the screen is very dim since there is no light behind it.

My question is, how easy would this be to fix? Or how much would it cost to fix?

Other Info: I have already switched the LCD screen with a working one and still got the same result. I looked very close to the board and can see one filter missing and some others around it look slightly damaged.
