I'm fairly baffled at this. It's possible that the LCD is bad, but that's very unlikely. LCD problems (which are rare) typically exhibit other behaviors than just a white screen.
If you get a Freeplay CM3, then you could use the LCD included in that kit to test on your Freeplay Zero. You could use your current LCD to test on the new Freeplay CM3 kit. If you find that the LCD is, in fact, bad, then go to https://www.freeplaytech.com/contact/ and submit a SUPPORT inquiry.
The Freeplay Zero should be using https://github.com/TheFlav/rpi-fbcp/ and it is likely located in /home/pi/Freeplay
The "error" messages that you got about failing to stop a service may be a red herring here. It will try to stop any other fbcp services that may be running, and it'll get that fail message if it can't (which is totally normal when it tries to stop other stuff that shouldn't have been running anyway).
By the way, we do have plenty of Freeplay CM3 circuit boards, now, but we do have a rather limited supply of Raspberry Pi Compute Module 3+ Lite boards. That's the main limiting factor at the moment.
Also, when you said, "I've formatted and reflashed the sd card" are you using Freeplay_Zero_20051301.img.gz or Freeplay_Zero_Test-RetroPie-46-20051302.img.gz
