Have a Sony KDL-52VL150 that had bad ghosting on the left side of the TV. I was able to fix it by finding an area on the top-left tab that gets rid of the ghosting when pressure is applied, but I still have a 1-2 pixel horizontal line that fades out halfway across the screen (picture attached). Also seeing some "noise" in the panel, horizontal rolling lines most noticeable on light backgrounds. I'm pretty sure it goes away too occasionally while the TV is on, just to come back again. I read somewhere this could be an issue with the panel driver. Any input is appreciated. I also suspect that the pixel line is part of my tab bonding issue, and may be unfixable.
I could part this out and still turn a small profit, but I'd hate to trash the panel at this point.
