    If a screen does this...

    Here are two images of screens and what they are doing. What commonly causes these two types of things? They are both LCDs.

    The one with the white vertical line works fine otherwise.

    I don't own either of these TVs, just doing research on common problems people are reporting.

    Seems to me the one with vertical and horizontal lines is going to be main board, tcon, or panel?

    And the vertical white line will be...?

    Thanks!

    I'm attempting to channel Wizard, but I recall he said the vertical line indicates a dead driver on the panel. These are bonded to the panel ribbon cables, and unreplaceable.

      You mean the vertical white line, right? That's a pity.

          Busted how? Broken panel? Is that what LCDs often do when broken?

              These photos shown here is bad drivers or something hit the LCD panel and damaged it. Unfortunately.

              Cheers, Wizard

                I have several broken lcd tvs( panels ) and none of them look like either of these. I think a little more info here is needed. Internal or external?

                  To fix laptop screen vertical line by working on its EDP cable
                  by almarhum
                  Has one here really gone through fixing laptop screen vertical line(s) by repairing/replacing its Embedded DisplayPort (EDP) cable, so would recount and share the complete steps of the process here now?

                  As most, if not all, believe the laptop screen vertical line(s) caused by defective Embedded DisplayPort (EDP) cable which slipped and passed through either laptop screen hinge but post here is asking help to elaborate definitively the useful, real knowledge of repairing in the most complete, correct way, esp. can decide/determine whether the cable can still be fixed or must be re...

                  Sony 8K XBR-75Z8H White Screen Vertical Bars Tcon Code. Help Needed🙏
                  by Daren87
                  Hello everyone,

                  I've recently been given a Sony 8k Z8H. It's got a white screen with two vertical black bars. At times it's given me the 5 blink Tcon code. Testing voltage on the Tcon I can see some low or missing voltage. I've done a basic visual check of cables and the COF. Not seeing anything obvious. The original Tcon seemed to have good caps until turning it over. On the bottom I found maybe 10 caps with both sides of the caps shorting to ground. I thought ok these caps and likely other components on the Tcon are shorted so let's try a replacement Tcon. I just received the...

                  White screen repairs
                  by harp
                  To ask here... I have few devices with white screen problem, actualy nokia 2220 and some fuji? camera, and try to understand what is common problem to cause that issue.
                  Yes, both devices work everything else probably ok, I mean, I hear intro melody and keypress click sound, DTMF tone, power on off... all ok.
                  On desk is nokia 2220 slide, and I check all screen connectors and components arround it, measure voltage drop, but all looks ok. I suspect on slide flex cable, but it look ok and white screen is not interupt while flexing board, pushing conectors, and sliding up down. In attachment...

                  Screen Display Vertical Multicolor Lines
                  by Stanley1843
                  Hello, I have a screen in where sometimes when I open it pop-up vertical multicolor lines (I would say the most of them are green). If I tun off and turn on the screen the lines dissapear or if I leave open the screen after approximately five minutes the lines gone. I measured the below voltages on the main PCB and on the T-CON board and the voltages are the same when it doesn’t display the vertical lines and when it displays the vertical lines. Also, I cleaned all the connectors very good with IPA. I moved back and forth the connectors and the COF tabs but the vertical lines didn't displayed...

                  Macbook 2017 with touchbar (A1706) won't turn on after removing the screen
                  by Ryan.man
                  Hello everybody! Posting this in hopes somebody has some expertise that leads to a clear path of troubleshooting that saves me a lot of time!

                  My macbook has the flex cable problem, the one that prevents the screen turning on. Ive been dealing with this for the last 3 years. Last year it went dead and I managed to fix it following youtube tutorials. But my fix wasnt the best, the problem returned a month later. This week, it went dead again. I again tried to fix it.

                  This time the original cable broke too close to the screen, it can't be fixed without tearing the screen...
