Howdy, everyone. I’ve been working on a PowerBook 180c and I’m about to tackle the part I’ve been looking the least forward to: recapping the LCD
Before I get into it, I’d like to get some confirmation is these lines are likely caused by faulty capacitors/damage from cap goo
Anything colour that’s adjacent to a window is coloured darker than its supposed to be, and these bands extend from one edge of the screen to the other, and they only happen where there’s the edge of a window with very light contents.
I had found a post elsewhere with a similar-looking problem, but someone said it looked more like an issue with the display cable.
The capacitors are getting changed regardless, but I’d just like an opinion on whether or not In should start searching for a replacement display cable
