    Tester Needed! Lilliput White Screen of Death

    Hey Everyone,

    I know here and there some people here have had the problem on the lilliput where you get the white screen of death because the controller on the back of the LCD panel goes bad. Well I think I might have found the part that causes it. But the problem is I don't have any to test right now. So I need someone that has a LCD panel with that problem and can solder. I need them to try soldering a small jumper to see if that fixes the problem.


    Here is the part that needs to be jumped

    I would not recommend jumping that circuit. There was a resistor there, and it appears to be fried. By placing a jumper wire there, you may actually change the resistance in that line, and could create more problems. Of course, it could also work too. Who knows, but I doubt you will correct the problem by using a wire to bypass the original resistor.
    Just my 2.6 cents worth.

    Oh I understand, but the way I see it is that the LCD is roasted already. So why not try.

    When I measured the resistance of that part in mine it reads as 0ohms. So i'm not exactly sure that it's a resistor.

    could be something used to jump a trace
