    Vizio VP422 HDTV10A - Vertical Line

    Hello all,

    New to the forum. I have a dumpster find Vizio VP422 HDTV10A Plasma TV that I come across. It has one thin (1 px wide) vertical line. On a black screen, the line is not visible (twinkles a little though), on the the blue no-input screen it appears green and twinkles a bit.

    Examining Caps, everything looks in proper order. I have reseated and cleaned the ribbon cables on the left side of the panel.

    My next thought is to try the lower cables from the bottom buffers (unfortunately they are under everything).

    Reading around makes me think it is probably a bad panel/IC on cable but I am optimistic.

    A couple of pictures are attached for reference.

    Let me know your thoughts.

    Thanks.

      That would be a bad plasma panel unfortunately. Nothing can fix that, on the plus side everything else looks in good order so you could just take it apart for spare parts. The X-main in particular is a common failure so worth a few $.

          Thanks for your response Tom.

          I thought that might be the case. No worries, it was free!

              Not to bump an old thread but I have this issue as well, except it's on the left side of the screen. Thanks for the answer, tom!

                  Vizio E701i-A3 fixed but now has red vertical line
                  by otaku_nut
                  Hi all, I tried searching the site for answers but I'm a bit over my head understanding some of what might apply and what doesn't, so please be patient with me. I used Freakaftr8's fix to remove the left driver board to restore picture to a black screen with sound Vizio E701i-A3. After doing so, I now have a large red vertical stripe down the center of the screen. The fix did require getting another t-con board from online, I ordered it before I knew about the mosfit fix for the old t-con board. I have tried cleaning the cable connections to the t-con board. I swapped the cables going from...

                  Vizio M65Q7-H1 Red Vertical Strips fixed by tape blocking LC1 signal to half of the panel

                  Failure Symptom



                  No picture, just red vertical stripes. Google search shows quite common problem for these recent Vizio M series although red vertical stripe pattern may differ. Some call it "Netflix" boot screen haha.

                  Where is the short?

                  Panel has 4x buffer boards. Quickly found the 1/4 panel buffer board with the problem by selectively disconnecting buffer board flex cables.



                  Having recently fixed another Vizio with similar symptoms that was a shorted ESD diode array ( link ) Probed the ESD diode array but...

                  VIZIO M60-C3 Can the vertical line be fixed?
                  by tmhobadcap
                  I am trying to help my friend to fix his Vizio tv with a vertical line on the screen. The line is on the right side. It is blue/purple on the right side starting from the top. But it only goes to about 3/4 of the screen height (not to the bottom of the screen). It is very obvious when the screen is dark and it is hard to be seen when the screen is bright. Please help....

                  Vizio E60-c3 blue vertical line (dead center)
                  by Gootch46
                  My Father called me he has a Vizio E60-c3 that's probably 3-4-5 years old but it has a thin blue line running down the center of the screen (photo) I tried a couple things but I'm sure one of you all have seen this already. Been a while since I've been here hope all is well. Thank you in advance....

                  Kogan - KALED65XU9220STB - Blue Vertical Line
                  by TrueSword88
                  Hi all.

                  I have a Kogan 65' LCD Panel with a thin blue vertical line (top to bottom) on left hand side of panel.
                  The line just happens to coincide with the end of COF and start of the next COF (attached).

                  The line is permanent no matter what I've tried. I've tried pressure testing the panel (top to bottom) and all over, I didn't notice any difference with the line, either temporary or semi-permanent.

                  Also tried unplugging all flex cables, cleaned with isopropyl then re-inserting to no avail - line remains.


                  Hoping to fix...
