    LG 47LW5600-UA - Thin Horizontal Lines...

    I have been searching to find similar issues, but none are quite the same as mine. The horizontal lines I'm seeing are less than 1/4" apart, evenly spaced, black, and seem to become less prominent as you move from right to left when viewing. They are difficult to see for the most part, but they're much more obvious on a white background. There is no obvious wear on the ribbon, no oxidation, and every other connect seems tight. Any ideas? I recently drove the TV back from Atlanta to Charlotte to return it to a friend I had borrowed it from. It was secured and protected with cushions and pillows during the drive.

      I tried adjusting the ribbon cables connecting the tcon board to the LCD panel, and the lines went away...briefly. I tried readjusting the cable and it cracked in the middle. I'm going to try replacing the cable before all hope is lost.

        John, I had this exact same issue (single pixel wide horizontal lines evenly spaced and fading from left to right) happen to my LG 55LM8600 today. My extended warranty just expired so I'm looking to fix this myself. Unlike you, the TV hasn't moved since we moved 1.5 years ago, so I don't think the issue is physical damage. I had another computer on the same circuit have its PSU fail a few months ago, so I suspect it's voltage issues. I'm about to order the power board, but I was wondering if you had any luck with your repair?

          i very much doubt that it is your ps, you could try to run the test patterns to rule out main.

          good clear straight on pics of the whole back of the set and of each board will be a great start.
