When the display test completes, does it say "RAM TEST OK"?
This looks more like a Dot Controller RAM issue to me.

Quoted from Gruntis:

Reseated the cables and fixed the second issue. I'm thinking the original display is on its way out.

Yup. When it did the same thing in a different game, that was evidence that the display itself has failed. I agree that it's odd that only part of a line is missing. Ouch.

Quoted from pacman11:

On my DMD just the bottom line (horzontal line) is out.. Does anyone know if there is an easy fix to it?

If you can get to the conductor that feeds that line, it's hit or miss on being able to use silver solder, conductive pens, etc.
