Samsung UN46C8000XFXZA Horizontal lines

[x_orange90_x]

I just acquired this 3D LED yesterday and it has horizontal lines on a little more than half of the screen. When I first turn it on it has thin black lines going across that makes the image look serrated, and then shortly after patterns of thicker red lines fade in. If I turn it off and right back on it will reset to just the black lines and the red will again fade onto the screen.

I initially thought tab bonds, but flexing the bezel makes no difference, and the fact the image sort of resets after cycling power is different. I haven't opened it up yet to actually test applying pressure to them.

I suppose it's both Vertical bars and Horizontal lines.. but it sort of looks like it's the vertical bars causing the horizontal lines.

Any opinions?
