Samsung ln46d550 horizontal lines on screen

[wfdbackdraft]

I'm looking for some opinions as to if this tv is fixable. I've had some sucess with tv's in the past, replacing bad caps. But this one, I'm guessing might be a board issue of some sort.
Can it be fixed? And what can I check to help you lead me in repairing it? I even have some thermal image pictures that I can upload tomorrow if it will help.

I have seen the videos of using scotch tape on some of the ribbon cable contacts, but I did not have any sucess with that fix.

clean and reseat those ribbon cables, some use ipa alcohol some use a pencil eraser, be careful they can be delicate, I have also seen these lines with a faulty tcon board.
