the horizontal line would appear to indicate a problem of the panel as opposed to the tcon. Your "friends" may have "spit" on some of the areas along the panel edge or on the bottom edge boards. Look for any contamination there in... you might get lucky and find some areas that just need a bit of cleaning. As suggested, the "tape cutoff" method of putting a small put of tape on one of the tcon to panel connectors to block some of the signal pins may revive the set.

Thank you, budwich, Don't you remember we had done it together, castrated a Sharp 70" TV?
i did the same thing, castrated a Samsung 55 tv that was a big catastrophe, it did not work.
I still don't know how it works. What is the working principle for all those mickey mouse works ? Something must be wrong. I hope somebody can help me with this.

Perhaps you misunderstand. The suggestion of the "tape cutoff" method is not a "catastrophe" event as it does nothing to the set that can't be reverse... one just needs to take the tape away to start again. IF you are referring to the "tab removal", then that's a different technique and is not reversible. The "tab removal" method has not been suggested for this problem.
The ebook explanation appears to be good but not without hazard as it is dependent on "repair talent" which an individual may not have mastered. I believe the "tape cutoff" method is somewhat less risky. Either way, the ultimate goal is to get a working set. Good luck / success in your operation. Personally, I would try the less intrusive tape cutoff method first to see if one can achieve a noticeable result. If not, then proceed to the "track cutting" method as at that point, there would be little else one could do to save the set.
Indeed, that's why it's not always a good idea to jump to a bad panel snap diagnoses, in some cases it's just very hard to determine if it's tcon or panel, glad it was an easy fix.
i mistype German cockroach to Germany cockroaches.
For example, although it is widely known as the "German cockroach" in English-speaking countries, in Germany in turn, it is known as the Russian roach. ......wiki
