    Garbled screen on HDMI, VGA is fine

    I’m unsure if it would cause the issue you have but many of those pins on the flex appear to have very little solder on them. If it was me, I would go over each of those points with a bit more solder or at the very least check for continuity between the chips and the flex points. I suppose...

    All 3.3s to GNDs shorted? No PWR LED and PSU "clicks"

    DCdigital worked fine, then force VGA mode started to duplicate the screen and display it on the tv twice.

    I would reach out to the installer about the issue and have them check the flex cable. It sounds like thermal expansion caused the issue after the console warmed up. It’s likely related to pins 6 and 7 on the flex or the component nearby on the flex.

Everything tested fine and passed my 6 hour stress test, only to arrive with the customer and not be functioning. Specifically, the console turns on...
