bookie32 Posted May 10, 2014 Share Posted May 10, 2014 Hi guys!Look I had a customer with a new Asus K55VD Windows 8.1 and she shut the lid with a Cable inbetween and cracked the screen. Asus here in Sweden don't have screens to buy but recommend a supplier that sells approved parts to laptops... I ordered the new screen and connected it as some nice instructions showed me online...(don't usually fix screens etc) Anyway, I connected the battery and tested the screen...I briefly had Asus come up on the screen and then it just Went to a light blue vertical lines as shown below... I had explained this problem to the guy from their support and he said it must be a faulty screen...they then wanted to make sure that there was no damage to Cables etc...so I reconnected the old screen to show them that one as well... I assured them that there was no problem with the Cables and was about to ask for a new one when I replaced the new screen again to take a pic when Power was added (Asus logo on screen)...didn't want to risk damaging the computer , so I added the main Power adapter instead of the battery....and it worked?! I have spoken to their support and experts and no one can give me a reason...the only thing I could come up with was maybe the pixels need charging and a batttery can't manage that...? Have we anyone that can give me some info on this...? bookie32 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have we anyone that can give me some info on this...?Nothing to do with "pixels charging". It must have been a bad contact (connector not placed totally inside it's socket) between connector and screen at the back of the LCD, that's all . When you put in the battery all is fine now?

bookie32 Posted May 11, 2014 Author Share Posted May 11, 2014 Hi puntoMX!Well, I hear you and I will accept that as the reason - just that I was so careful connecting it several times and under a magnyfying lamp that it is hard to accept that I had connected it wrongly or not fully.... It could be because I am going senile...LOL. Yes, the computer worked well with just the battery after that. I now know to double check, tripple check and you know the rest....lolThanks for your time! bookie32 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jaclaz Posted May 11, 2014 Share Posted May 11, 2014 And if you want I can even give you a logical explanation for it. (you can use it as an excuse ) Somehow one of the pins (or socket) had a very thin layer of oxidation, just enough to act as insulator.By just disconnecting and reconnecting you "broke" it and everything worked after. jaclaz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
