Tablet Screen Flickering. Help!

Recommended Posts

Hi, 

 

My tablet screen started flickering erratically,  screen will stay on a bit, go black, flicker on/off etc.. Touchscreen still works though. 

 

I factory reset the tablet but it's still the same.  Seems to be okay apart from that, but it's unusable right now.  Screen looks good when not flickering & still works when screen is black (icons can still be pressed although can't see them)

 

It hasn't been dropped, hasn't got wet or anything.  

 

Does anyone know what the problem could be?  Or how it can be fixed?

 

Tablet is a LG Gpad 8.3

 

Thanks

Screen or backlight issue, off chance it could be the screen cable needs re seating.

The backlight is okay, I think.  It stays on when the screen goes off.  Also, when the screen is on it seems fine, as normal.  It's just this flickering business.  When not flickering it's perfect.  But the flickering has made it unusable.

 

If it is the screen cable, do you know how much it would cost to fix?
