So I've had this TV for quite a few years and already done the tab bond shim hack. It worked great for a couple years then the TCON went screwy and I replaced it. Worked great for a couple more years then it started having either dim/dark ghosting on the left side, or strange vertical colored lines across the screen. Leaving it to warm up for about an hour would result in a perfect picture if it was just ghosting. When it would display the colored lines, and I'd leave it on for an hour (still with colored lines), generally turning it off and back on at that point it would work perfectly.
I ordered a new TCON because I believed that was causing the colored lines. I put it in today and immediately had the ghosting for about 20 minutes, and I chocked it up to the tab bonds, but the screen went normal and I left it on for about an hour. After that I turned it off for about 20 minutes and turned it back on and it was once again filled with colored lines.
When it displays the colored lines they do change and move with image source. I don't believe this in itself is a panel issue, but I do believe the ghosting is, which I can deal with until I'm ready to dig deep down again to the tab bond causing it.
So my question is, what is causing the colored lines despite two different TCONS? As I said, I can sometimes turn the TV off and back on and they're gone. I have attached pictures of this anomaly.
