    4" Static Line down middle of picture

    I have a Westinghouse 40" LCD TV Model VR-4025 (15 months old) and now has a 4" wide line of static down the middle of the picture. See picture attached.

    Called Westinghouse and it is out of warranty so they won't do anything. I researched on the Internet and it seems like it might need a T-Con LCD Timing Control Board. Seems that controls the image to the screen.

    Do you think it is something else?

    I don't know, but I think they should still cover a TV that's 15 months old.

    If not that, I'd suspect a tab bonding issue:

      Samsung UE58TU7100K - no picture, vertical line
      by mrsith
      Hi.

      Got UE58TU7100K with no picture - backlight comes on though. Figured out that's a perfect candidate for cut tape method.

      This model has just one LVDS tape coming off main board - and two panel boards underneath the LCD screen are connected to each other via small tape. Like curved screens. I've tried to disconnect half of the screen (5he side without LVDS connector on it, obviously), no joy.

      Disconnected the tape (main board side). Applied a small piece of tape, covering first ~4-5 pins. Powered the TV on - got picture. In negative, but that's...

      LG 55sk8000 plb ..snow in the middle of screen but can see that picture exists there
      by burbutsalos
      Hello everyone.

      I have this TV set which has this issue. It shows a vertical bar im the middle of the screen.
      The panel has 12 cofs and the problem seems to be on the territory of the first cof on the right side.
      The tv fires up and you can see a good picture exept that vertical part where multicoloured pixels exist.
      The strange thing there is that you can see behind that snow that it shows picture but as if there are these pixels in front so you cannot see clearly.

      The effect is there even on a completely black screen.

      The screen...

      T-con suspect issue. Both ribbon cables no picture. One ribbon cable ok. (58pus8545)
      by Tr0ll
      Hi guys! I realized you have a lot of knowledge here so i am hoping you could point me in right direction with my odd issue.

      The Tv is a Philips 58PUS8545/12, it had no picture but working backlights.

      Original T-con:
      Opened the Tv and tested to unplug one ribbon cable at a time. With this test i could see that i got fine picture on both halves as long as there was only one ribbon cable connected, with two connected picture were gone.

      First replacement T-con:

      I thought it might be t-con and ordered new t-con from china(supposedly tested)...

      SAMSUNG UN55KS9000F picture fades then distorts into vertical lines after 20 seconds
      by JJAAMM
      This was my main TV for the last 6 years. I'm not inclined to throw out a $2600 TV so quickly so I'm trying to investigate the issue.

      Problem
      TV was disconnected from power for 6 months during construction. When I plugged it yesterday picture was fine, after 30 seconds it dimmed then started developing horizontal lines, picture then starts to ghost vertically until it degrades into vertical streaks. TV always displays a perfect picture when cold. I can unplug TV for 5 minutes and plug it back in and picture is restored for 20 seconds. I can also keep it in standby mode...

      by TR103
      Hi, I have a Samsung UE50TU with:
      - sound and backlight, but no picture
      - when it arrived, it had a picture for a few seconds
      - it keeps rebooting
      - without ribbon cable between the two panel boards, it does not reboot but I have no picture
      - without cable between mainboard and lcd panel, it does not reboot (but obviously i have no picture)
      - when i try a tape fix, its keeps rebooting, unless I tape off pin 1 (the innermost pin). In that case it does not reboot but I have no picture.

      - without cable between mainboard and lcd panel and with a jumpered...
