Vizio E601i-A3 - Green vertical line on screen.

[mattpd]

I have a single green vertical line running from top to bottom on a Vizio E601i-A3 TV. The line is only 1 pixel wide.

Before I spend money on a new TCON that I may not need, is there a surefire way to tell if it's the panel that is broken or if it is TCON that is broken?

Hello this sounds like a bad lcd screen that needs a tab bond repair. Could you take pictures please ?

A single pixel line is always a bad panel (sometimes it is a tab failure - but I have never succeeded at repairing single pixel line tab failures)

I have had some success with tab bond repairs but some its hard to preform, my mate Soltys says its as easy as cap repairs it surely isn't easy preforming tab bond repairs and the success rate is little to non.

My success rate is 50% for temporary repair, 25% for permanent repair. I only repair 26" Chimei panels as I've seen them last a while... the rest, I can't trust...

I have around 50% success rate overall, although I hate doing tab bonds as most of the time you have to redo and add more foam or what ever your using to secure the tab even more, basically a nightmare alot of the time.
