H/V lines on LCD monitor

Sep 30, 2006 3 Replies

Hi,



I picked up a 15" Proview pro588 LCD PC monitor cheap; has flaws of course. It has a few horizontal and vertical lines running straight across the screen (entire row of pixels are non-functional) but other than that, it displays input from a computer fine.



What would cause this? Someone told the LCD screen itself could be making poor contact with the circuit board; is this true? TIA

Saw that on one that was dropped. I would assume that it's an issue where the ribbon(s) are attatched to the LCD substrate.

Possibly a faulty zebra connector? Could be a SOB to fix.

I have never seen one of those on an LCD monitor. Most likely this is a failure of one of the bonded driver chips on the panel. Not repairable.
