My display started showing vertical lines through it. I read that it was likely a problem with the actual display so I bought another one, plugged it in and I still have the same problem. Does this mean that the ribbon cable is bad? What else could cause this?

I don’t see anything burnt. I tried to get good pics of the board. Do you see something wrong with it?

This is the one I removed. I bought a newer pulled from working one and it does the same thing.

I replaced the cable with a new one from Marco and still have the same issue.

Pins are unbent. Board looks ok. The lines are always there even if I wiggle them.

Thank you so much. I ended up pushing on all of the connectors and socketed chips on the main board and then the problem went away. Freaking awesome you’re just freaking awesome thank you both so much for helping me!
