HP ZBook Fury 17 G7, Maintenance And Service Manual, Page: 159 / 232

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.
Dead pixel
Display panel may show one or more pixels that are not properly lit when displaying a single color over the
screen area. Use HP PC Hardware Diagnostics (UEFI) tool to determine those defective pixels.
There is no solution for dead pixels. See Display issue: pixel anomalies on page 179 for the HP dead pixel policy.
