Hi Sam_urai,
Thank you for you query. I will try my best for you.
I understand that when you boot, you get a white screen, but if you press hard on the left side of the keyboard the image comes back. It does sound as if it may be a loose connection or worn cable. Would you please provide your details, so I can assist you further. I will need the exact model you have and what operating system are you running. How Do I Find My Model Number or Product Number?. I await your reply.

Hi stephysanrio,
Thank you for you query, I will do my best to assist you.
I have a few questions before I can answer you. Do you have the same issue as described in the original post. If not would you briefly describe your situation and any errors you may have.
What exact model on HP computer do you have. How Do I Find My Model Number or Product Number?

Hi stephsanrio,
Yes it could be the cable. As the external monitor worked we did narrow it down to the display or cable.
You replaced the display ,so it may very well be, the cable.
I would have provided you a link to the maintenance and service guide for your system, but HP makes numerous models of Pavilion dv 6. Here is a link to a page, where there is another link to click, to have it auto detect your system. HP Troubleshooting.
Go to the main page and you should see a link to the user guide. Click on that and look for the maintenance and service guide.
