Try masking this area with duct tape.

Tested all the caps on the boards for very low ohms and found no reading below 1.1

Maybe try masking a few more lines, see what you get.

I too have the same issue.
Kindly revert me with the total number of lines to be blocked if the horizontal line has to disappear

Here's what you could be dealing with, sometimes it don't work, the short could be on any of them or more than just one as he explains in part 1 or 2, watch them both if you like: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pfrRhw7-ZII

I've just found out what my problem was, one of my LVD cables was damaged, I tried another cable from a TV of the same model and used a piece of paper to mask the clock signals on the faulty side, (as suggested by lotas above, with picture), and now the TV is working perfect. I couldn't find any LVD cables for the TV, so I searched for the number on the cable 30107739, on Ebay and found some for a TOSHIBA 50UL2163DBC 30107739. I fixed the other TV as well, it had a similar problem but the screen was all light blue with no picture and it was the opposite side which had the fault. The TV cost me £20 so I am very happy now. Thanks lotas.

So to clarify, the only problem on both tvs was a damaged lvds cable, correct?

No the first TV had the damaged cable and a screen fault, and the second TV just had a screen fault.
