My Magnavox flat screen LCD TV model 26MF231D has one verticle green line that comes and goes. It will stay on the screen for quite a while. What causes this? How much does this generally cost to repair?

Hi, I have a Samsung LN40A550 LCD TV which I have had for just over a year. ... I was watching TV yesterday and all of a sudden the picture went all. ... started makinga very high pitched buzzing sound with no picuture coming on. We did have a bunch of green vertical lines, but now just a black screen.
This set has major power board issues...it would need replacing but don't expect a new board to last over a couple yrs, might make more sense to buy a TV that isn't made by Funai in China, those sets are very cheaply made and have a short life...Try LG, Samsung or Sony
Most likely you have defective capacitors in the Power Supply. It is not an expensive repair but something that needs to be done by a svc. co., if your not familiar with Switch Mode Power Supplies (SMPS). I hope this helps and Thank You for using FixYa.. Let me know....
it should have a year warranty get it in for warranty repair before the warranty runs out or someone tells you the wrong thing to go and the tv ends up as a big paperweight...
Help! My Plasma by Magnavox is putting black verticle lines on the right side of the screen - comes and goes - and I replaced the entire Direct TV-HD unit - wires, everything - and had TV company repair - and it still came back. The TV repair refuses to take TV back because it does not show up when they come. Although I videotaped it and showed them which has the date and time - they still refused to take it - and tried to get me to sign a paper saying it was working while they were there - which of course I refused to sign - so they left and nastily said they will not be back-find someone else. I still have the lines - and do not know what to do! Can anyone help?
It sounds like u have a damaged lcd panel. When your panel gets like this there is not much u can do to fix it. It will be cheaper to get another TV than to order a replacement panel. If your bought the service protection plan you can get it replace no problem but if you didn't. There is not much you can do for it.
