It can possibly be the video section too and video is integrated on the
system board. M2's wil give good external and replacing the LCD and cable
will not cure it, have done a few hundred of those, a few thousand of
various Toshibas back to 486 era models. It can fool you despite the normal
rule that if you have external it must be the cable or panel. My bet is the
motherboard from experience.
The S174 has integrated video, you can use either p/n P000352510 or
P000363690. Panel is either P000343780 (Toshiba LTM15C425L) or P000347390
(Sharp LQ150X1LH66) or P000343700 (Samsung LT150X3-134) or P000347410
(LG.Philips LP150X04) - all 15.0" XGA color panels. Thereis only one LCD
harness listed, 350330 so any of the panels listed will work in the machine
without worries of specifics like some of the M2 models and others. The
plastics do matter dependant on the letter stamped in the old plastics but
are not dependant on the LCD model.

There is only one thing you haven't done, and it is the thing that will
solve your problem. That is to replace the screen. It is bad.
