Re: Sony KDL-55XBR8 vertical lines

I have attached photos of the Sony KDL-55XBR8 in each of the four picture modes, i.e. cinema, vivid, standard and custom. As you can see, the only mode without vertical lines id the custom mode. Source was a DVD playing a movie via an HDML connection. I had just changed out the AU 1-877-616-11 main board, but no solution. I also used all the other html connection but that didn't help. Thought it might be the TCON board but overlay menus show no sign of the lines but in the background the lines are visible. Have any of you experienced any thing...

Hi, I am not an expert by any means on lcd tv repairs but have done a lot of work building and repairing computers so I am familiar with circuit boards and care that they need. I would like to participate in the forums, if I have anything of value to submit. Thanks for granting me access to this web site.

Re: Sony KDL-55XBR8 vertical lines

I have a Sony KDL-55XBR8 that was showing vertical lines but when I changed the picture mode from standard to custom, the lines disappeared. Going back to standard mode the vertical line reappear. I'm guessing the main AU board has problems, but at least I am able to use in "custom" mode. Any thoughts from other Bravia owners?
