Yellow tinted screen

Hi
I noticed today that my Sat Nav display has developed a yellow tint to it rather than the crisp finish I had previously.

The display isn't clear, blue is now a darkish green and white is like a dirty yellow.

Anyone else had this before?

Bad connection on one of rthe RGB lines.

Remove, clean as required, and reseat the connector on
a) OnBoard Monitor (screen)
b) Video module (if fitted), both white and blue connectors
c) Nav unit, blue connector

If that doesn't solve it, it is a screen fault

Any reason why it went black ?
Try removing fuse for nav so it reboots
