    Vertical lines and ghosting on Mitsubishi LCD TV

    Hi,

    Wondering if anyone can help me out with my tv. It has 3 vertical lines and ghosting. I have not been using it since August and tried turning it on and doing factory reset but it didnt fix it. Model is LDTV-146 - it is a costco re-branded model and Mitsubishi support doesn't even have any record of that model number. There is a discussion on this forum (http://www.avsforum.com/forum/166-lc...6-ldtv152.html) for the correct model for the unit but I do not think there is a concensus on what it really it.

    This is how it looks like - very horrible ghosting on the TV

    Unfortunately, to me, it looks like the LCD panel in your TV has failed. This can happen spontaneously or due to moisture ingress. This would not be economical to repair as the panel is usually 90% or more of the cost of a new TV.
    Please do not PM me with questions! Questions via PM will not be answered. Post on the forums instead!

        They use a samsung panel, Very common fault with those panels.

          Screen Display Vertical Multicolor Lines
          by Stanley1843
          Hello, I have a screen in where sometimes when I open it pop-up vertical multicolor lines (I would say the most of them are green). If I tun off and turn on the screen the lines dissapear or if I leave open the screen after approximately five minutes the lines gone. I measured the below voltages on the main PCB and on the T-CON board and the voltages are the same when it doesn’t display the vertical lines and when it displays the vertical lines. Also, I cleaned all the connectors very good with IPA. I moved back and forth the connectors and the COF tabs but the vertical lines didn't displayed...

          Colorful LCD Vertical Lines on Samsung ue55es8090
          by Falki
          Hello there, ive recently found an older 55inch Samsung SmartTV.
          Sadly it has vertical lines at the left and one line in the middle-right.

          I have already tested out the connections and have looked at the soldered ribbons of the LCD panel to see if some contacts got loose by pushing them a bit but with no success.
          I have factory resetted the TV as well but also with no luck.

          I am afraid that it is indeed a LCD Panel issue but there are NO scratches or any impact-marks..

          A similar issue has been posted as well but also with no actual response ...

          Sony KDL-40V3000 - Vertical lines
          by gpo23
          Hello,

          i order a t-con because i had bad colors on my SONY KDL-40V3000 :




          With the new t-con the color are good but there are vertical lines on all the screen :




          I've tried the old t-con and it returned to the initial issue (bad colors but no vertical lines)

          Is there a way to fix the vertical lines on the new t-con ?

          Thank you for your help

          1/3rd of screen black with occasional vertical lines - repair attempt for learning! - Kogan KALED58RT9220SVA
          by Firentiosi
          Thanks for offering your assistance with this. I'm an electronics enthusiast with moderate level of competence (have a decent lab with two power supplies, microscope, DSO, hot air, good iron, can competently work at a component level on SMDs, design and solder own PCBs etc). I really enjoying fixing things and learning new stuff so took up a free 58" LED TV and have been googling and watching Youtube videos to see if I can fix this! I am happy to go down to individual component replacement/strip replacement etc - it's all in the name of learning.

          The issues are as follows: the...
