How to Fix Cloudy Spots in LCD TV Screens eHow

definitely hardware sounds like yo have a disconnected LCD cable or most likely its a bad lcd screen

Kevin, Kevin, Kevin,.....you should have posted your problem here first.

Primer:
An LCD screen cannot produce light. It needs an additional light source.
A Backlight is the additional light source.

A Backlight can be a CCFL, or a series of LED lights.

In regards to the Acer Aspire 7720 series of Notebook PC's, the Backlight is a CCFL.

Cold Cathode Fluorescent Lamp.
Similar to Fluorescent lighting used in homes, and businesses, but on a MUCH smaller scale.
(Approximately 2mm Wide, by close to the height of the LCD screen, Tall )

A screen Inverter is used to convert the power (Electricity) of the laptop, for the Backlight, and LCD screen.

90 PERCENT OF THE TIME THE FAULT IS THE INVERTER.

The thin plastic frame in front of the LCD screen, (Resembles a picture frame), is the Display Bezel.

The screen Inverter is mounted towards the bottom of the LCD screen, and behind the Display Bezel.

This you already know. Posting for those who read this solution in the future.

I don't have an E-PL2 to look at, but it looks like there is a protective window over the LCD screen on the back of the camera, that is why it is smooth.

If the "cloudy smear" is see-through-cloudy, then it's either a water spot under the glass or dust.

If you can't see anything on the LCD in that spot but big splotch, then the LCD is cracked and needs to be replaced.

Without being able to see it, I can't say 100% sorry.

motherboard has gone out cost is about $700 including labor i just was quoted that price mine is doing the same

That was the first generation, I would invest in another set considering the age and parts availability.

I think camera screen (LCD) is broken thats why you getting image as cloudy.

You have to send it back to company to fix this problem>

i guess its the old magnet problem maybe in fluke u or someone in your house had taken a magnet around your tv try fixing it with a magnet by moving the magnet again around the screen and using the same old technique by moving the magnet slowly on the defected area and then quickly taking it off

If you can remove the front screen, look down into each CRT tube lens, blue, green & red see which ones are cloudy. The cloudy ones need the fluid changed which is a coolant. Shops charge between $75 to $150 a tube to change.
