Tried to convince the guy at PPP in Terminal 21 to replace my display cable. He wasn't having it. Now I understand why. The display assembly is a sealed unit all glued up. Nobody goes in there to try to replace those cables. Apparently, the replacement display assembly includes the lid. There is no separating the lid from the display without removing and replacing a whole bunch of glue/adhesive.
The good news is that re-seating the display cable (on the motherboard) is doing the job for now. I'm sure it won't last. But at least I know that I have to replace the entire display assembly next time it fails. Still, I did waste USD 30. Anybody with better skills than me can have my extra display cable (Part number: M5397 / 0PPK6X) for free.
