Game Gear Recapped, but still shows blurry vertical lines. Please kindly help! Ty!

Hi all!

Just wanted to see if anyone can help me. I replaced all the caps on my 2-ASIC Game Gear, caps ordered on eBay. But when I turned it on it have blurry vertical lines. The sound and power works fine, but the blurry screen shows up, even adjusting the contrast wheel. Prior to the recap the system turns on for a bit then shuts off. Do you think it was a because of my mistake on the first try I installed the caps in reverse for C35 with 4.7uf 35v backwards? It was the only cap I accidentally installed backwards. I accidentally put the pos with neg and neg with pos, then I took it apart and rechecked all caps to make sure it is soldered on correctly with pos to pos and neg to neg. Or do you think I had a bad LCD to begin with? Any advice or opinion can help! Thank you all!
