Screen shaking every few seconds

[diamonddyn]

Hello, I installed a modchip in my switch lite and also changed the digitizer. At first it was working normally, however after about 30 minutes, the screen started shaking. Does anyone know if this is caused by a bad modchip installation, or did I damage the screen, or what? I will look at all the ribbon cables in a bit, below I attached a video.

with my mod chip disconnected, I still have the issue so I think it is my lcd, does snyone know how I can fix this or do I have to replace my screen? also can I use the screen from the v1 for testing?

Afaik, the screens are not the same.

This looks like a bad connectoin of the ribbon cable or maybe a crack in the ribbon cable.
It could be as simple as the LCD ribbon cable not seated correctly in the connector.
Other things to look for are pins that are slightly bent or maybe some dirt on your ribbon cable.

hey, I cleaned the ribbon cables and reseated them multiple times, but no hope. I dont see any cracks or anything altho ive yet to take out the motherboard. One thing i noticed is I when i booted into hekate, then powered off and took out the sd card and powered it back on again, I have some sort of screen burn. I will attach a video of this below. Does this mean that it is most likely fault of my lcd or could it be something else?

Boot into OFW and tell me how it looks. It's extremely rhythmic.
