Samsung LN5265FX/XAA -VERTICAL LINES

[MacAddict]

I have a Samsung 52" TV that has multicolor vertical lines on the right side about 1/2" wide. As the set runs the lines disappear until only 1 green line remains. Occasionally another line will appear but will go away by touching the screen at the tip of the line. Do you have any ideas about the problem or how to fix it?

Tab bond fault.

Screen is scrap.

Will it get worse or is this something I just have to live with?

You can attempt to use thermal pads to press the ribbon connections, 'Sometimes' you may have success but it is a tricky thing to do.

Otherwise there is nothing else that can be done, When a panel dies that is the end of its life, It may or may not get worse

Thanks for the input. It was free and I revived it by replacing the bad caps so - Live and let die.
