Screen flashes intermittent and the display says "initial". Buttons on unit are not working. Any ideas?

I am guessing that the unit is broken and the display screen does not work either.

Is the unit plugged directly into a wall AC plug?

Are you using a power strip?

Have you changed any settings either on the unit itself or on the original remote or are you using a different remote?

Are there any other high voltage units connected to the same wiring?

Do an initialization (factory reset) by holding the HIGHEST WHITE key down and turning on the power. Hold the key for an extended time until display confirms initialization complete. This will restore unit to factory defaults.

14 INITIALIZATION OF THE MICROPROCESSOR
When the indication of the display is not normal or when the operation of the unit does not shows the reasonable result, the initialization of the
microprocessor is required by the following procedure.
1 Switch off the unit and remove the AC cord from the wall
outlet.
2 Hold the following AUTO button and PCM button, and plug
the AC cord into the outlet.
3 Check that the entire display is flashing with an interval of
about 1 second, and release your fingers from the 2 buttons
and the microprocessor will be initialized.
NOTES:
• If step 3 does not work, start over from step 1.
• If the microprocessor has been reset, all the button settings are
reset to the default values (the values set upon shipment from
the factory).
• Calling out preset stations from the main unit‘s panel.

There's a small plunger just beyond the keyboard which switches the screen off when you close the laptop, this could be sticking. Failing that check the screen cables are secure, reseat the screen

1) Do a hard reset = leave unplugged for 12-24 hrs , then
