    Vizio E420i-a0 Vertical Lines

    Hello everyone. Fixed a handfull of tv's with this forums help over the years, hoping to add one more to the pile!

    I have a Vizio E420i-a0 that has vertical lines when you turn it on, and DOES have sound. The vertical lines move and change. TV turns on and off fine otherwise.

    I have a few photos of the issue here, and video on youtube:

    Anything else I can check or is this just a mainboard failure - or is this full on panel failure?

    Thanks for the help!

          it's an LG panel. I can get you more details if you want when I'm back at home. Are you saying keep the backlights for selling them?

              Vizio E70-E3 Two white vertical lines
              by brad2157
              I picked up a Vizio E70-E3 for free that shows Vizio logo and then goes to a black screen. Original owner said he started having wifi issues and then he tried to reset the TV and that's when it wouldn't boot up any longer after his reset attempt. I picked up a replacement main board from eBay that matches the same model # board as the original from the TV.

              Original main board - Shows Vizio logo when TV powers on, then goes to black screen. Doesn't boot up. No screen issues with any lines on start up Vizio logo.

              Replacement main board - Boots up fine, but starting...

              vizio e65 e3 LED tv color vertical lines center tv only
              by viking509
              I recently replaced the led backlights with LB65041 LED Backlight Strips and after putting it back together the backlights work but there are only colored vertical lines only in the center of the tv. I can see the Netflix logo (jumbled) after a minute or less the screen went dark. When I turned it on again the lines were back. Then I replaced the t-con board but the same vertical lines in the picture. My question is what is my next step? Could it be a source tab bond issue? A buffer board issue? Could I have loosened a connection to the panel when replacing the backlights? Should I replace the...

              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
