    LCD Monitor w/ Vertical Lines

    So I've done some searching online to see if anyone has an idea of what this issue is and for the most part I've seen that it's a "T-Con" board going bad, but yet again, no definite answer... I have 2 LCD monitors that are doing this... First one is a Dell SP2208WFPt and the second is a Soyo Topaz S series...

    Basically what is happening is that I'm getting faded vertical lines all across the monitors like a certain color pixel is stuck on, the Dell has a white color while the Soyo seems to have a red'ish color. (Did a color test and only notice it on certain colors)

    I picked both of these monitors up for free and they were not working at, so I got them to at least turn on... Now it's just the vertical line issue....
    Any thoughts?

    (Pictures to come once I put them back together)

    Usually vertical lines are a sign of a bad panel. Are they grouped, random or follow a set pattern (every X pixels)? A reddish tint could be attributed to a failing CCFL bulb. Also, LCD monitors usually don't have a "T-Con" (Timing Control) board, these are found in LCD TV sets.

      If when you press the upper part of the LCD panel lines respond (usually disappear), then you have a defective display. Repair is not possible.

          The picture suggests the panel is shot, and no repair.I have seen Screens with total whitish fading colouring etc, and they can sometimes be down to Badcaps(particularly with Proview),or a badly fitting connector between Logic and Screen Board.

            I agree with Rtech. The welds between the LCD control board ribbon cable and the LCD panel are starting to fail. No fix for this.

              I had the same problem with a ASUS screen.
              It was a bad connection on the panel. I fixed it with a little plastic to press on the place the connection was not good and now it is working well.

                Check also caps, i think in these cases there's something bad at elettrical level, the connection get damaged.
