Re: Insignia ns-lcd42hd

EDIT-

I GOT IT FIXED!!!! the problem was one of the brown cables that went from the top chip to the lcd itself, the far left side one to be exact, was extremley sensitive. Whenever it was torqued or touched, the whole left screen would fizzle out with black and static. what i did to prevent the pressure from touching it was got 2 rubber stoppers roughly half a centimeter in depth and put one on each side of that strip connecting to the lcd to prevent any friction or pressure on that sensitve cable. ive put the whole bohemeth back together and...

Alright so i dug alot deeper into the tv, its not the ribbon cables nor is it the tcon board on the top, i took off the metal bezel beneath the black plastic one and found two more rather large, long smaller boards (see picture below) that the ribbon cables from the tcon board connect to. the problem persists when i touch the thin cables that go from the seperate boards to the screen from when i was bending the screeen. check out these pictures. i dont think these will be easily replaceable :/

EDIT- i Got the metal cover off and found...

Im having some issues with my insignia 42 inch LCD flatscreen tv. (apologies, but i am a very new user to this site) My television is having an issue where half of the screen fades into a darker picture than the other half. (Check the pictures i have linked below for more information) This black faded color on the tv does overlap onto the tv menu and on all inputs whether it be hdmi, svideo, pc, etc. After a while, the half of the screen darkness goes away sometimes and it gets white vertical lines across the 2/3 of the screen starting from the left. (note that this is very rare when it happens...
