Samsung Vertical Lines

[cbearden]

After repairing this TV, from this thread,
https://www.badcaps.net/forum/showthread.php?t=70191
all looked good and worked for about a day after I put it on a wall mount.

Now I get vertical lines on both sides of screen.

Is this TV doomed?

I've swapped both boards, outlined in the red square.
Same result after each swap.

Yes, this TV had an issue where half of it was very dark on some screens.
So, I already cut off the tabs on the left side as a last-resort after trying many other fixes that didn't work. It looked and worked great for about 1 day. And then these vertical lines showed up.

Re: Samsung Vertical Lines

Or, were you talking about the tabs on the bottom of the screen?
The tabs I cut off were on the left side.
