The cable which connect T-Con modul and display panel is not connected or break. The causes can be because the connector cable is dirty or rusty.

The gamma is broken, hence why the color that appear is only black and white.
IC Scan Driver is broken, hence why the vertical lines appear.

If these are the reason, then the only thing you can do is to change the component with the new one.
