Sony 50" rear projection has horizontal pink/red band issue

It is the (wega?) model that has speaker built into the bottom of tv not the earlier release where they were on the sides(?)

red band located at the very bottom of screen
it is transparent and about 2 inches high, right across the whole length of screen

any ideas about what the problem might be would be greatly appreciated

tv is 3 years old and is used for about 10-20 hours a week max

able to provide serial and / or exact model if required

many thanks!
