Dead Pixel; No Video (Internal); No Video (External) - HP ZBook Power G10 Maintenance And Service Manual

NOTE: The lid close switch is a Hall-effect sensor located in the top cover. When the display is closed,
the sensor acts like a switch is closed. A notebook can force a video output to an external monitor, or
go to hibernation or standby mode through power management. If the display screen does not light up
when the display is open, the lid close switch (Hall-effect sensor) could be faulty.
