I've tried pressing on that chip. No change. I refreshed soldering on resistor and capacitor next to. Still nothing. Next thing I could try is adding 3 ohm resistor in parallel with capacitor there. Sounds very low for any control resistance, so I'm afraid it may do no good there, but I'm running out of options.
Chip designation is D71817A...I'm not even sure what it is.
Following your remark, I've looked now closer at the screen assembly. I did not pay attention to it before, but it's indeed fused with PCB. Zero chance of reusing it on another device or fixing it as is. Whole device is built in a way that does not require low profile bond like this, but yet that's what they did. Planned obsolescence in action...
