Samsung LE40M87BD Picture Issue

[viduka]

Hi
Any ideas.Picture seems to be duplicating itself.
I thought bad T-con but tried a different one and same issue. T-con came from damages screen though so can't be sure its not damaged. Been suggested may be LVDS CABLE.
Any help would be great. Don't want to spend any cash if the panel is bad.
Thanks in advance

im not an a tv tech but it looks like a tab bond issue

I just had the same problem with a different Samsung set and a couple of the tv techs on here helped me find the problem

also try removing the lvds cable, clean it and re-seat it

I had another Samsung set with picture issues and I re-seated the cable and it fixed the problem

Make sure you press on both contact points of the tab bonds with a piece of cardboard

I had trouble finding the faulty tab bond at first
