Samsung UE32F5000

[Billsy]

Hi all this should be a quick one. I have a 32" Samsung with a pixel width vertical green line on the left hand side. The line fades out towards the bottom. It appears a couple of minutes after startup so not from cold. I've poked around and manipulated ribbons and such, and nothing has any effect on the line.
If I remove the left side tcon ribbon, the left side of the screen is completely white and no green line (to be expected?).

I'm guessing the LCD in a goner? A tcon fault won't create a single line will it?

tcon = 5351TP0055FV

Thanks for your help

Does anyone think it's worth trying another tcon board?

Thanks

NOT T-CON Bd. problem. This is definitely a PANEL problem.
