Philips 37PFL9604H T-Con issue?

[Maxmad]

Bellow is a series of photos of a Philips 37PFL9604H.

Seems that is a T-con failure judging from the half screen picture.

However, applying force to the upper left vessel seems that the picture appears but is as bad as the rest half. Red tinting with slow ghost effect.

probably the panel ribbon? or the panel board itself?



ps: please moved to the right section: Troubleshooting TVs and Video Sources

I would say it is in tab bonding areas.

Thank for the info, video seems to provide a solution , however don't think it will be permanent...

But why the rest half of the screen is red ghosting?
In case if defective bonding areas only specific lines will be affective...

can this means a second problem to T-Con?

Grab the top right corner, and bottom left corner of the tv and twist (lightly) and see if the picture clears up. If it does its a panel cable.

the screen changes, but it doesnt clear...
Vertical lines at half screen appeared and disappeared but the other half still is red tinting with ghost effect...
