    Have a problem, LED Toshiba 50L4300U with Horizontal flickering lines

    Hi all, maybe someone could share some light on this problem...had the Tv for a couple years now, the other day the tv started to show horizontal flickering lines...from the top to about the middle of the screen. I have done some google research but basically haven't found anything on this matter other than firmware problem? Tv is updated to latest firmware, and even I have done factory reset from the installation menu the tv still has the same problem. I had also opened the tv and check capacitors, loose wires and haven't been able to notice anything. Have seen post and youtube videos where the screen turn off, but in my case it just flickers for a second or two, deem the screen...will be fine for another 15sec or so and it will do it again... it's annoying.
    Does anyone have any idea what could be wrong? is it my power board?

            Firmware can't cause single pixel lines in my experience.
            The flickering on and off has been seen to be a thermal-related LCD panel fault (something heats up, connection goes, it cools down, connection re-made, repeat...)

              I see, thank you for the response...so there's no repair for this tv? Sometimes it flicker less when you unplug the tv for a while....but gets worse if lower the backlight

                I hate when somebody ask for photos or videos and you upload them and they dont even bother to comment after all that effort.

                  Was this comment for me? I did comment there's no solution.....basically the flickering is so bad now tv is unwatchable....I'm disappointed at toshiba...and it might not be related but all these problems started after the last firmware upgrade

                      Samsung UE70TU7100 - flickering horizontal lines
                      by mrsith
                      Hello again good souls.

                      Got an UE70TU7100. The TV starts up just fine, but right hand side of the screen is horizontal striped a bit, and there are some flickering horizontal lines on the whole length of the screen. I've seen similar static horizontal lines sometimes, when applying the cut tape method and covering wrong number of pins.

                      I've cleaned every connector with ipa, tried cut tape method on main LVDS ribbon as well as small ribbons, connecting the panel boards at the bottom. Tried squeezing the bezel and playing around COFs, but no reaction at all. COFs and...

                      Dell U3419W horizontal lines and flickering
                      by Guybrush
                      After watching too many electronics repair videos (but not monitors) I came across a dell monitor with flickering horizontal lines. I haven't purchased it yet so don't have much info, but from the video and pic do you think there is a chance of repair or is just simple panel damage?

                      Seller claims; "but due to sun damage has some grey lines going through it"

                      ACER BM320 Monitor - Horizonal Flickering Lines After a While
                      by reessi
                      Hello,

                      The monitor started off showing flickering thin (1 pixel) lines horizontally every say 3mm..

                      They are black on the right and gradually fade to nothing on the far left.
                      They start either after 5 mins or up to 2 hours after so annoying for testing.
                      They flicker continuously very fast! With a slight pause milli-second every second.

                      Initially I cleaned the LVDS cable and connected to the T-Con and then it worked fine for 3 weeks but not sure if this was just co-incidence.

                      I tested each half by removing the first the left flex from...

                      by Ihandyrepair
                      Hi guys

                      I just started fixing 4k TV few months ago. so I am still learning a lot
                      I got this tv from friend complaint is ghosting or horizontal lines on image.

                      never saw the original symptom but I took the tv back home. the funny part is that after bringing to home, the tv worked fine no issue for 3 weeks.
                      then it started to show the ghosting white image.
                      I started using the tape method, but this tv does not have a T con board and it has only 1 ribbon cable from main board to the tv panel.
                      it has 3 thin small boards at the bottom of the...
