I found a site where there are 6 € + shipping ...

ps:
I found a Nokia 5510 on a famous site for sale and nine for the modest sum of € 350 in new condition ...

Sometimes moving the screen is enough. If it doesn't solve you problem, yes, you have to snap it off to clean the rubber contacts on the back. Don't worry that's easy.

Indeed. If you have to remove the screen, there's four little tabs, push them out with a small screw driver, take the screen off, clean both the screen and the board with rubbing alcohol, and snap the screen back on.
