Post a photo of the underside of the PCB, showing the flex cable where it enters the connector. 800x600 images usually work best.

Thank you. Those kinds of problems often trace back to a misaligned flex cable, but yours seems to be seated properly.

For the sake of trial and error, remove the cable from the connector and reseat it. If it helps, it's a fast solution. If it doesn't, post back then send a note to [email protected] and the folks there will get you a replacement.
