eDP Video Cable
The eDP cable routes through the laptop hinge, subjecting it to mechanical stress and fatigue with every lid cycle. Micro-fractures in the copper traces or a loose connection at the terminal cause intermittent signal loss, manifesting as flickering or lines. Replacing this cable restores the high-bandwidth connection required for the 144Hz/165Hz displays used in this model.

LCD Panel Assembly
Internal failure of the LCD's gate drivers or the LED backlight strip can lead to rapid flickering that is independent of the hinge angle. This failure is often exacerbated by heat soaking during gaming sessions on the Legion 5. Replacing the full panel assembly is the only reliable way to resolve hardware-level display defects.

System Board (Motherboard)
If flickering persists across external displays and internal testing, the root cause is likely the Dedicated GPU (dGPU) or the power management ICs on the system board. This occurs when the GPU's solder joints or VRAM modules degrade due to thermal cycling, causing artifacts and screen instability that software cannot resolve.
