I’ve got my 17” eDp lcd panel to work. ! Tricky part was figuring out what ribbons were necessary and how to operate the connectors... I found ribbons on aliexpress....
Hi, great to know!
Could you please share the part numbers of the ribbon cable you ordered from the AliExpress. The one I ordered from ebay seems to be "the wrong one" I am able to get the picture by holding my finger to tighten the ribbon cable against the LP-connector, but as soon I get my finger off picture disappears from the display. So the display works OK, the cable not ...
In my version of the ribbon it must be inserted 'upside down' so that the clear connectors
are facing the LP board, otherwise there is a nasty sound of power overload as the display is "short circuit'd"

Because of this "upside down" connector only the far end of the ribbon cable is loosely connected against the connector pins of the cable slot causing all my problems - I believe.
Thanks!
