It might be the ribbon cable but if it were you should still be able to get audio unless of course you couldn't see what source you were on. posted_image

Thanks for the reply. I had audio and video and button controlls. First the button controlss stopped, but i had audio and video, then the video went but had audio, then audio went. Still have power.

Any thoughts?

That is definitely a ribbon cable problem

I will be happy to get you the part number so you can order one but the last 2 guys here that tried to fix theirs broke a switch while taking it apart.
