Hello,
Very recently my laptop screen began going quite fuzzy (to a point of being unusable), however, there was still an image in the background that was visible (such as the windows logo when loading). I opened up the laptop, and noticed by the hinges on the right side of the screen, there was a wire that was being pulled every time the screen was adjusted upward or downward, to a point of being almost completely severed.
Once I put the laptop back together after reattaching the screen fully (I took the entire LCD off the hinges and made sure the connection on the back was secure) the screen was all colors and lines. I noticed that one of the wires by the hinge was (or appeared to be) fully separated. I tried weaving them back together and using electrical tape to hold them together, but still no luck.
My question is: Is the wire the issue with the screen not displaying correctly? Or is the screen itself the issue? And I suppose the main question is, how do I fix this problem?
Pictures of the wires/screen below:

Wires still together by plastic wrap: http/i.imgur.com/n2CAXuJ.jpg
Wires detached: http/i.imgur.com/cjeDHn5.jpg
And an overview of where the wires are located: http/i.imgur.com/XABu2qH.jpg
It is the Black wire closest to the bottom of the two wires. They were originally taped together, I believe one of them is for a microphone?
Any help would be highly appreciated as I can't afford a new laptop haha.

or if someone is positive what that wire is? I suspect it's an antenna maybe? The only thing I can think of causing the issue would be a damaged wire of sorts though... External displays work perfectly fine. And there was an image (very fuzzy and still lines across the screen to an extent) before opening it, now it's just all colors... Does anyone know if it could be a wire causing the issue? I'm totally stumped on this one haha
