Sanyo DS31650 31" TV On power up the TV screen is split with wide (1/10th screen) horizontal black bar through center of TV. The bottom of the TV video picture appears in the top half and the top of the video picture appears in the bottom half. If I click the menu button half (bottom half)of the menu appears in the upper left corner (approx 1/4 of screen). After about three minutes the TV screen changes to a bright extremely narrow line running horizonatlly through the center of the screen with the rest of the screen black. Audio is normal. Unplugging TV and/or powering on and off occasional brings up a normal screen for about 10 -15 seconds, then the above process repeats. I see no adjustment knobs anywhere on the set.
It sounds as you desribe, the vertical output IC and or the b+ feed capacitor off the Hi voltage transformer feeding the vert. IC its required voltage. Not a really hard job to replace, but not for a handi person to do. This should be left to the professional, as there are no user serviceable parts inside this set and with the HI voltage and the safety issues its best to call somesone to assist you with this repair. Good Luck

My sky box froze and after I rebooted it the picture came on the TV with the picture split. A black line a quarter of the way from the bottom.
the screen shows a black bar at the bottom and picture is just half of the screen
