My screen is glitching out unless I adjust it or apply pressure to it

My screen is glitching out unless I adjust it or apply pressure to it

Hi! I’ve had this computer for about 2 years I believe and over the past few months I’ve started having problems with the screen. The thing that happens is that the picture on the screen will suddenly freeze either displaying a slightly distorted picture or displaying a weird color change that resembles a magnet being held to a television. (No matter what happens with the colors the screen freezes and I have to adjust it forward or backward or squeeze the top of the screen. However, these are only temporary remedies. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

"Hi @zodiac_wanderer ,

Here’s a link to the service manual for your laptop.

Scroll to p.77 to view the part numbers for the components associated with the display assembly, followed by the necessary pre-requisite steps and then the procedure to remove the display panel.

The manual will help you to gain access to the most likely areas of the problem, i.e. the video cable connection to the motherboard, the video cable itself because it passes through the hinge area and may be damaged there, the video cable connection to the display panel and hopefully it is not the problem the display panel itself.

If you need a new part, search online using the appropriate part number only (found on p.77) in the search box of your browser to get results for suppliers of the part.

Hopefully this is of some help."
