Abstract
A display device has a display section having scanning lines, and first and second scanning drivers having output lines for supplying scanning signals to the two ends of the scanning lines in the display section. When the potential of at least one of the output lines of the first or second scanning driver is fixed or unfixed due to an error in the first or second scanning driver, the output line at the fixed or unfixed potential is disconnected from the corresponding scanning line in the display section.
