I am trying to repair an ASUS X407UBR and found that the connection to the screen on the mainboard is sensitive to touch. If pushed, the screen will turn off, as can be seen in this video: https://files.fm/f/hvz297p2u It seems stable enough without the casing, but I am afraid the connection will be lost if I close it back up.Is there something I can do to fix this? I have access to a soldering iron, although not much experience using it. EDIT: As requested, pictures of the two ends of the connection:
The board plug is definitively loose on the left side and that’s also the side that is pressure-sensitive. Funnily enough, connection is lost when I push it back towards the board.
@nrahad either a loose board connector or a bad cable. Remove the cable and take a picture zooming in on the board connector. Then take another one of the cable end. Post those with your QUESTION.That way we can see what this all looks like. Adding images to an existing question If it is the connector it can most likely be resoldered. If it is the cable you would have to replace it. Could be a PITA to do that.
