You need to press the “Disp” button present at the back of the camera. Since your camera is clicking blank pictures, set the camera in any mode except Auto, turn the Flash off. Click a picture. You will notice that a flicker will appear on the lens of the camera. If you cannot see any flicker, the shutter of your camera is stuck.

You can follow the steps given here to repair a stuck shutter: http://camerarepair.blogspot.in/2009/05/simple-fix-for-stuck-shutter.html

Hope this solution helps.
