I have a Samsung LN40B530P7N. Set has a 2 vertical (1 inch wide) red lines on the left side of screen . Also tuner does not work. HDMI is OK. I do not know what is happend but I think its after a storm . A voltage is OK.
Somebody knows what should I do?

Everyone in the US blames their electronics issues on storms

In this case you have a common defect, likely it's tab bonds. It can manifest itself in a number of different ways. See these videos (not mine):

It's possible to fix it, but quite difficult. You can break the panel doing it. Personally, my success rate is 50%, but I've only done two TVs with this issue. If you're very careful and slow, and you have a large area to work on, it is possible to fix it.
