    Vertical lines in Samsung UE40F7000SL

    Hi there!
    A friend's TV set has started to show some vertical lines .
    Im attaching 2 pictures of it. Sorry they were taking thru the display glass, he has it in his store and couldn't get anything better at that time.
    The photos show horizontal lines but the TV set was sidewise 90º (portrait), so they are actually vertical lines.
    As you can see there's a bunch of lines all together, and them some others farther, scattered...
    My 1st guess is a cold solder in the T-con board
    My second guess is some faulty/loose flex ribbon cables between driver board and LCD.

    Does this issue look familiar to anyone? He just wants to know if this is fixable at a decent budget

    Thanks!

      The FFCs from the T-CON Bd to the Driver/Panel Bds could be defective. Remove them and give them a good cleaning, be careful not to damage the little gold fingers you would be cleaning. Inspect the FFCs to verify they are in good repair. Ensure they are properly seated. The inspect the FPCs that go from the Driver/Panel Bds to the Panel to verify they are in good repair. Press the FPCs where they are glued to the Panel while the TV is on to see if the problem clears. If nothing works they you do have a bad Panel.

          Ok I will check that, he said that after he disassembled the TV to give it a quick visual check, it got worse, so maybe he touched or moved wires around the T-con board / LCD.
          I will keep you posted
          Thanks

                  No, the image is fine, he has the TV in portrait mode and the PPT is designed for portrait mode. He uses it in his store´s display

                      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 ...

                      Screen Display Vertical Multicolor Lines
                      by Stanley1843
                      Hello, I have a screen in where sometimes when I open it pop-up vertical multicolor lines (I would say the most of them are green). If I tun off and turn on the screen the lines dissapear or if I leave open the screen after approximately five minutes the lines gone. I measured the below voltages on the main PCB and on the T-CON board and the voltages are the same when it doesn’t display the vertical lines and when it displays the vertical lines. Also, I cleaned all the connectors very good with IPA. I moved back and forth the connectors and the COF tabs but the vertical lines didn't displayed...

                      Hi guys…I need your help. My cousin ask me to fix her tv. The tv when I went to pick up showed 3 horizontal black line.

                      Samsung UN46C8000XFXZA vertical bars/horizontal lines
                      by x_orange90_x
                      I posted about this previously but didn't get any response, and I have some troubleshooted a bit so I have more info.

                      The screen is full of horizontal "gaps" or lines that distort the picture badly, and after about 10 seconds of powering it on the screen starts to fill with red vertical bars that take on the horizontal pattern. After the screen filled with the red bars, they instantly vanished and then slowly started to reappear. I initially thought it was tab bonding failure, but after getting down to them and pressing each one I find zero change in the picture. I went...

                      Thin stable coloured vertical lines on Samsung UN65NU6900FXZC come and go
                      by polaro
                      Greetings,

                      I've bought a used Samsung UN65NU6900FXZC LED TV. It worked fine for some time and then developed, at first, a single very thin (1 pixel) vertical stable blue line, from top to bottom, close to the left edge of the screen. Now it's 3 lines on the left. When I connect HDMI sources the number of the thin lines grow. After disconnecting and cold discharging I am back to 2 lines. The lines disappear at a rate of 15-20 minutes per line. So it does not look like a damaged LED panel. Any advice? Thanks...
