Dell latitude D400 LCD display bleed through.

12" LCD display has backlight bleed through (in the middle of the screen)

Conclusion: Bad design from Dell, and the LCD display has plastic pads in the display assembly supporting the LCD display to reduce flex.

The plastic pads are to thick, resulting in excessive pressure on the screen causing the bleed through. Removing the plastic pads doesn't help and the result is a permanent "broken" LCD display, always showing bleed through.

The computer is now (2009) classified as "old" and there is no reason to replace LCD display. Standard Dell LCD connection to Motherboard (same as C400/D410)

pictures coming showing bleed through.
