Ultrabook White Screen = Bad LCD Cable

RCSnyder — Tue, 21 May 2013 01:49:49 GMT

I picked an S3-951-6646 today on Craigslist with a white screen problem.

I've diagnosed the problem as the LCD connector cable (Part #SM30HS-A016-001) and am looking for a source.

It appears these may be as scarce as are the LCD panels, but for a supplier in the Netherlands who wants $125 (plus $39 shipping).

Certainly there must be a stateside source where these are in stock.

Please advise.

Thanks in advance.

Bob

My acer apire 3 has a similar problem. I have imported the LCD cable from the Netherlands. Will see if it's gonna solve the problem. It seems this problem is a manufacturer's blunder!

Did the NL sourced cable do the trick? Please advise.

I am having the same problem. The LCD cable tears when the ultrabook is opened to its maximum viewing angle (very large angle for the s3-951-6646 ultrabook). Tried oredering from China, but could net get a correct part. The Netherlands supplier seems to be the only supplier for now. I do not know who has tried them. Acer should please come to our recue. The s3-951 is too new to be thrown away because of the Part #SM30HS-A016-001

I've had the same issue and sourced a replacement cable. However for the life of me, I can't work out how to route the cable over/round/ through the hinge, so that it nots pinched by the case of goes over the top of the power button cover.

Does anyone have any clear pictures or instructions their could share?

Thanks

This Acer Aspire S3 ultrabook is a horrible laptop to fix. I'm an experienced tech and worked with thousands of laptops, replaced many screen connection cable but this Acer S3 is one of the worst. The design is just a nightmare and make you want to rip the whole thing off. To get the cable out, you need to remove hard drive, battery, wifi card and motherboard from the computer, then hinge, then you'll have a hard time wrapping the cable around the hinge (why designed it like this from the first place???), this thing is driving me nuts

I find the construction on this notebook is superb for the size, I would spect much more glue, but it is all clean. I am having the same white screen problem, at first was just when I opened the lid to wide angles, now screen is always white. Is the cable broken? or the connector? Should a new cable fix this?
