Re: Vizio E470VL - Horizontal Static/Wavy Lines

Tried both ribbons, no change. Half white screen, half picture with lines. Any idea how to narrow it down to the t-con or the main?

Anyone seen this before? I bought this on craigslist as a patio TV and the owner showed me the startup screen as proof the pic was OK. I get it home, start trying inputs and every single one has these static/wavy lines (not just the TV input in the video). Tried different HDMI/Coax/Component/Power cables and well as different power outlets in different rooms. Same thing at each outlet. I opened it up and didn't see anything obvious (no blown caps/loose wires/black spots/broken solder lines/etc).
