Yeah this is an easy solution but kind of annoying fix, because you have to use a hot soldering iron and reconnect the bottom ribbon cable wires by running the iron across and getting it hot enough that it doesn't actually melt the ribbon cable.

Try checking the solder connections between the board and the LCD ribbon cable that is under the screen. Likely, something has come loose which makes it not drive the horizontal lines at all.

She's straight fuckered, friend. You likely ripped the back ribbon cable that connects behind the LCD or broke a trace or two on the brown one under the screen.

Hey all!

So I have no idea how I caused this, or what even can cause this because frankly I've seen nothing like it and it boggles my mind that after looking at countless tutorials and making sure I followed every direction down to the letter, the LCD is always the one thing that fucks up.

Here's what it looks like:

Is there any way to fix this. And yes I've tried the soldering iron accross the ribbon cable.

Thanks!
