Replaced hdd with ssd now screen not working correct

I replaced the HDD with an SSD for a customer but now the screen has a big stripe in it..

Is it broken? If i press on different spots on the lcd it doesnt change. I tried refitting the lcd cable but it sits snug.

Could it be a cable or something or should i buy a new display?

Ive been really carefull with it but something went wrong.

Did you follow this guide? iMac Intel 21.5" EMC 2638 Display Replacement

I fear you managed to cut one of the LCD ribbon cables from the T-CON board. That can happen when using too long a tool to cut through the tape. Sadly, it’s time for a new display unit as patching the fine copper traces is not easy!
