Maybe you drop your battery and they have electronic components inside that could be spoiled, if is that the case, try to change the battery, it appeares to me that the ammount of current the battery is sending to the component is very low even thoe it seems to be fully charged that's why the camera is unable to display anything and the "busy" warning is blinking all the time, I hope you find this usefull.

Check your manual...does it say your camera has "live view"?

Try cleaning the contacts on the lens and body where they meet with a cotton swab lightly dampened with rubbing alcohol.
