Lost the blue pixels in my LCD NAV screen for a day

Was driving along and thought I had Jaundice as my nav screen looked really yellow. I did some flicking through some screens and worked out that there was no blue. So every pixel decided that it wouldn't show blue. It was like that all day until miraculously it started working again. Is this software/hardware or did I have acute jaundice?

Could have been a loose cable or ribbon cable. This would happen to the VGA computer monitors if pulled out a certain way.

I've been experiencing this on my 04 myself.

Turning off the screen and turning it on again (using the "turn off screen" option on the menu) restores the blue.

Am curious to what causes this myself.

Thanks CNC Mastr, will have to pull it out and see if the connection is loose.
