Are the lines vertical or horizontal? Are they color or black and white? Right side of screen or left or middle. Intermediate or always there? If you bring up your menu are they in front of the words or behind?

Bad screen if line is tiny ignore it or buy a new TV if out of warranty then repairing any screen bad is very expensive a tech would re-seat all USB cables inside or try shims in the frame ( a dirty hack free of cost if you did it)

Try these two easy possible solutions:
Reset the tv by unplugging its power cord for 1 minute and plugging it back in.
Check the coaxial cable for any damage and screw the cable back.
Good luck.

If you mean a black vertical line from top to bottom, then it means the TV is on its way out. This has happened to me and I lived withit until it got too wide and I had to replace it with a new one.

SOURCE: LG flat panel plasma with red line

I had the same problem and fixed it by replacing the control board. It's a little nerve wracking, but required only simple hand tools. If you'd like to see detailed pictures of the repair check out my blog.

SOURCE: Why do i have red lines on my philips plasma tv?

if the lines are going horizontally across and look like someone took a thin magic marker and marked across the screen, you have one of two problems, either some scan ic's have failed or you have a flex cable coming loose from the panel. Either way it will require repair. If it is the flex cable the cost to repair will be beyond the tv's worth because the whole panel needs to be changed to fix this. If it turns out to be the scan ic's, they can be changed or the board the ic's are on may be changed depending on how the repair is approched by the tech. But the cost would be reasonable around 200 to 250.
Good luck

How do u fix a philips 50' plasma television with line through it?

The only in-home troubleshooting you can try is unplugging the TV for 30 minutes which will reset it. If that doesn't work the TV will need to be repaired. A line through the picture indicates a failed component inside the TV that needs to be replaced.

I hope I've provided you useful assistance and that this information allows you to make an informed decision as to how to proceed from here. Please be sure to vote on my response. I hope I've earned a good rating from you today.

Please post a comment if you need additional assistance so that I can help you further.

Black Horizontal Lines on Philips Cineos 50" Plasma

First you want to determine if the issue affects the tv's menu if it does you are looking at a Light Engine issue which is expensive if it does not interfere with the On Screen Display the issue is with your signal board, also check to see if this happens on multiple inputs with multiple signal sources if it doesn't you just might want to use a different input which is a way cheaper solution

Philips 42pf9946/12

The plasma display screen is made of a matrix of elements connected to cables along the side and top. On your unit, some of these many, tiny connections are making contact intermittantly thus losing the elements in that area. These contacts are held in place with just pressure and if that is disturbed, you lose that line of elements. Try squeezing the cabinet of the TV on the outside at the top in the area of the loss and see if that makes a difference. May have to go inside and see if the contact assembly is disturbed or warped or something.
