Unhappy Navi Screen Lights Up Green!

I have a 2007 TL-S and I recently had my entire navi drive and disk replaced due to the drive scratching the disk and causing a disk read error. Everything has been fine for about a month. There have been some heavy rains and i went out to the car this morning, started it up and the screen is completely lit by a green light! The maps, audio even the back up camera. So I guess it is the light bulbs that light up the screen? If anyone has any help I would really appreciate it. I have had the tv and nav to go installed for about 2 years now, but hardly ever use it.

It is a backlit screen but you should still be able see it

Can you snap a quick pic of it? Is it extremely cold where you are at?

Hmm - Almost seems like a bad connection from the drive in the back; try wiggling the wires a little back there ? It's not wet where the drive is at right ?

Hey redline something is loose on my screen too. Did you end up taking the unit out? Could you tell me which wire was loose?
