This sounds like it might be a defective CCD imager. If so, Canon should fix this for you for free, including free shipping both ways. This is regardless of your camera's warranty status. Please check the following two links for more info:

SOURCE: Canon Powershot A430 horizontal lines problem

have opened my camera. (it was useless anyway, right?) GUess what I found: in the lens-assembly there is a ribbon cable that controls the two solenoids, one of the shutter, one of the diafragm (or what it's called). This one is broken, the electric circuits are discontinued and so there is no control. It seems to be a design error since it broke exactly where the ribbon bends at 180 degrees almost with no place for a loop most of the focussing time. Can anyone find out where to find a NEW replacement ribbon cable?

Oh my goodness, don't disassemble and don't go banging your A95's up for this problem. Sorry I missed this post when you first submitted it.

SOURCE: where can i find Canon Powershot G7 LCD

Have you tried: www.camerasandparts.com I know they sell both the new and used lcd screen for the powershots so they may have the instructions. Try emailing them, it would be worth a shot. Best of luck.
