    Acer S277HK horizontal flickering lines

    Hi,

    I have Acer S277HK 4k 27" display, and the problem is it has flickering horizontal lines. Display panel is M270QAN01.1

    I disassembled monitor and checked every connection and looked for obivious marks of failure. It seems like earlier owner have replaced power unit caps at some point, I will replace those when I get new caps, but they seemed okay.

    Horizontal lines are more clearly visible at top of display.

    Here is photo of mainboard from internet, I can take better photo myself tomorrow


    Does anyone have any ideas what to check first and where to start? What could cause this?

    Here is video for reference

    I have the same issue with the same screen. Were you able to fix the problem? Did you fix the caps? I am hesitant to order a new main board if that isn't the issue.

      Got this screen from an exchange student going home, and hoping to fix and use it.

          I dont know if this is a solve per se.
          I hooked up another power adapter I had lying around and left it there.

          I kept using the monitor even though it looked like shit.

          After 1-3 weeks (honestly dont remember), it went to full brightness and stopped the shimmering.

          I have no idea how this voodoo bs works, but I am just leaving my monitor alone for now and being happy taht it works.

          Did the clean power from my blessed adapter just flush out the toxin buildup from the previous bad connector, and now the monitor is healed? best explanation so far.

              ACER BM320 Monitor - Horizonal Flickering Lines After a While
              by reessi
              Hello,

              The monitor started off showing flickering thin (1 pixel) lines horizontally every say 3mm..

              They are black on the right and gradually fade to nothing on the far left.
              They start either after 5 mins or up to 2 hours after so annoying for testing.
              They flicker continuously very fast! With a slight pause milli-second every second.

              Initially I cleaned the LVDS cable and connected to the T-Con and then it worked fine for 3 weeks but not sure if this was just co-incidence.

              I tested each half by removing the first the left flex from...

              Samsung UE70TU7100 - flickering horizontal lines
              by mrsith
              Hello again good souls.

              Got an UE70TU7100. The TV starts up just fine, but right hand side of the screen is horizontal striped a bit, and there are some flickering horizontal lines on the whole length of the screen. I've seen similar static horizontal lines sometimes, when applying the cut tape method and covering wrong number of pins.

              I've cleaned every connector with ipa, tried cut tape method on main LVDS ribbon as well as small ribbons, connecting the panel boards at the bottom. Tried squeezing the bezel and playing around COFs, but no reaction at all. COFs and...

              Dell U3419W horizontal lines and flickering
              by Guybrush
              After watching too many electronics repair videos (but not monitors) I came across a dell monitor with flickering horizontal lines. I haven't purchased it yet so don't have much info, but from the video and pic do you think there is a chance of repair or is just simple panel damage?

              Seller claims; "but due to sun damage has some grey lines going through it"

              Sony XBR-65X750D Horizontal lines bottom of screen
              by ggil44
              Hi, I have a Sony XBR-65X750D that has horizontal lines at the bottom 6 inches of the screen. These lines appear to be every other line because the picture is still quite visible behind those lines. The lines appear all the time with a few other lines above and below the 6 inch level blinking on and off at about 2 second intervals. I'm not sure if this is a panel issue or power supply/main board problem. I did replace the T-Con board without any change in the problem. Any suggestions you might have would be greatly appreciated. Thanks,
