There are so few serviceable parts in these devices, that attempting to get them repaired is probably pointless. The card can be reimaged or replaced. The screen can be replaced but is relatively expensive. About the only other thing you can do is inspect the board for any obvious damage.

I would suggest trying another card and making sure all the cables are connected properly. Plus inspect the screen for damage. If the backplane is cracked, the screen won't work. Usually it is obvious, but sometimes it can only be seen from the back.

As to selling for parts, the screen is delicate and easily broken. Unfortunately, this means that there are lots of posts about them. If your screen is good, someone will want it.
