I pressed down on the lcd ribbon and a column about 1 pixel wide appeared off to the left. The pixel wide column will flicker on and off if I continue pressing.

Does it flicker if you press on the base lcd ribbon?

It might be worth mentioning that the front an back halves are from different gameboys.
