If there is a camera repair company near you they might sell you a replacement, from a spares camera.Because the Program had user replaceable screens,here in UK you can find secondhand ones at dealers and camera fairs relatively easily.I do not know what the situation is where you are located.You can find some of the more specialised Program screens on eBay sometimes.

The only Program screens I have are two special screens for macro work.Unfortunately they are totally unsuitable for general photography.If you do not get fixed up nearer home contact me and I will send details of repairer in UK who will sell you replacement

Try small camera shops, they generally have a small boatload of AE1's around.

I had the same problem on an AE1-P and a small camera shop in my town, San Marcos Texas, had one.
