PowerBook g4 15 flashes white lines horizontally in the middle of lcd

I purchased this powerbook not to long ago on ebay listed as for parts I have managed to repair everything except the horizontal white flashing lines that come and go. I don't think its the logic board or GPU because when i connect it to external monitor no lines. I would be very happy if someone helped me out here please. I included a picture so you could see what it is I also replaced the lcd data cable but that didn't fix the issue

You are correct the problem is not on the logic board but within the LCD panel its self. One of these possibilities is the cause:

The LCD driver logic on the back side of the LCD has a bad solder joint
The binding of the kapton flex circuit to the LCD has broken free
The LCD back glass has a crack in it

In any case you'll need a new LCD screen to fix it.

Hello recently I came across a fix on the internet that didn't involve purchasing an LCD I tried it and it solved this issue. None of the problems you listed were mine, what had happen to mine was a ribbon cable that transmits light and image across the whole LCD was loose. These cables aren't soldered but glued and the glue wore off. They were loose, all I did was tape them back tightly and I had a perfectly brand new screen. Thanks for your info and help though.
