Screen going white after a couple minutes #14

I’m having a screen issue with my freshly built 2021 circuit sword kit and the standard screen. After a couple minutes of the GB being on the screen starts to progressively become more and more white. If I turn it off and on again the screen will still be white. If I turn it off for 5-10 minutes the screen is a little bit white but immediately progresses to a less opaque white. If i turn it off for a while 30+ minutes the screen looks great but the cycle continues after a couple minutes and starts to turn white.

Occasionally the screen will flicker for a few seconds. When it flickers it looks normal. I tried cleaning the board with a toothbrush and 100% isopropyl but it didn’t help.

The is a quick video showing the screen after letting it sit for a couple minutes and rebooting: Here

I am also having an issue with the “HD” screen. It only worked for a brief time and after rebooting it no longer displays an image. The back light comes on but the screen just stays black.

Kite, I already sent you an email, but wasn't sure if I’m supposed to post issues here first for tracking purposes.
