iSight Camera not working

I have suddenly lost my iSight camera

In the system report it says that there is no camera present

I have tried the following:-

Reset both the PRAM and the SMC.

Booted from an external drive with a previous version of the OS (El Capitan)

Re seated the Isight camera connector on the I/O board

Entered various Terminal commands suggested elsewhere to reset the camera controller.

The auto brightness function still works OK as does the headphone jack as does the magsafe connector

I have run the AHT which returns no problems found.

Does the AHT test the I/O board? If it doesn't is there a test I can run to check it?

It seems that replacing the camera is not too easy, but the I/O board is simple enough, what is the balance of probability that it is the board rather than the camera?

My MBA is a mid 2012 model, 4Gb Ram, 256Gb SSD running Sierra 10.12.6

Thanks for any advice
