Screens bank for weakness (5,4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

blind spot

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'weakness' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

'screens bank' is the wordplay.
'screens' becomes 'blinds' (blind is a kind of screen).
'bank' becomes 'pot' (I am not sure about this - if you are sure you should believe this answer much more).
'blinds'+'pot'='BLIND SPOT'

'for' is the link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for blind spot that I've seen before include "source of misunderstanding?" , "where one cannot see" , "Area where understanding is lacking or one is unsighted" , "Hazard for driver" , "Unseen area of road" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
