Anonymous Posted on Jun 19, 2010

Upon turning tv on after it's been off for a while i get two lines going from top to bottom of the screen. theres a line on the left side about 2 inches in from the left thats red and about 3 mm wide and theres a few on the right about the same distance in but they're thinner and spread apart but yellow in colour. after about 10 minutes these lines go restoring normal viewing. whats causing this and will this get worse as time goes on

I see you ask the questions in my repair guide.
First, this is LCD TV so it does not use the X and Y sustain (some people called them Vertica/Horizontal inverter, which is not the right term) like the PLASMA TV.
The problem can be the T-CON, main board.
I would suggest to clean and reseat the 4 ribbon cables between the panel and the T-CON board first.

Hello,

IF YOU HAVE A SOLID BLACK LINE RUNNING VERTICALLY THEN YOU HAVE A FAULTY MATRIX INVERTER. IF CENTRAL THE MAIN VERTICAL INVERTER NEEDS CHANGED. LEFT = LEFT VERTICAL INVERTER RIGHT=RIGHT.........

ANOTHER WAY TO GET THIS FAULT IS WORN OR DAMAGED RIBBON/PLASTIC GOING FROM THE SCREEN MATRIX TO THE INVERTER

HOPE THIS HELP...

VIZIO P42hd PS42a plasma Picture has two vertical lines (one red/orange, one blue) going down the right-hand side of the screen. Lines are clearly visible

The panel is almost certainly bad. The only fix for this is to replace the whole panel which would cost more than the whole TV.
