hey all,

got an older Sony Bravia (KDL-46W4100) 46in lcd tv that I need some help with.

it started developing weird lines/glitches in the screen that run both vertical and horizontal. they started off small, but over time its gotten progressively worse. they are constant and there on main screen.(so not an HDMI issue)

I've already have it apart and don't see anything obvious.
any help on where to start (tcon board??) or what the most likely culprit is would be awesome
thanks!

Don't stop at the power board. If those glitches have been developing over time, then I at least can't think of any other cause.
