As cheap as 40” flat screens are today, it’ll probably be cheaper to buy a new one than to fix yours.

SOURCE: theres a line threw my tv.

It has a problem in the vertical sweep circuit that puts a nonlinearity in its output and you see the glitch in the normally gradual sweep as a line. Since a hit upside the set seems to help, you should just resolder the whole vertical circuit area (doesn't take long) and see if that cures it. If not, start replacing the electrolytic capacitors in that area.
Hope Ya Fix It!

SOURCE: samsung 42" Plasma -Black vertical line when turned on.

It sounds like an Intergrated Circuit (IC) has fried. Even on a good day, this is not something you can attack at home. As a tech (and as an owner of that model samsung), I'd need a map & tools to know what's going on. Your best bet in this situation is to contact Samsung and let them recommend an authorized service center in your area. Sorry I can't be of more help, but this is a rather serious problem.

I can't switch the input on my tv. Any ideas what would cause this?

That is a main board issue. Needs replacement if you resetting the electronics to factory defaults does not cure the issue.

I have a westinghouse tv. Dwm40f1g1. It will not power on. I just bought it in December. Why?

Main power regulator board problem. If the set is under warranty, contact the authorized service center. If you wish to get some details; check the site linked here. Viewing it in "Mosaic" or "Magazine" will make surf easy. Pull up older posts. Surf the site with patience. Do a search by type in the brand name of your device at its search box.
