Hi,

my above smart TV (7-8 years old) developed Horizontal lines over half the screen

Googling about it gave no definite clues of how to fix it.

I have it open & the three cards show no visual fault.

Can you help please ........thanx ...........nick







 
Solution
usually the lines are done by the screen itself, not the cards controlling it, so the lcd itself could be bad and needs to be replaced, the cost of the part usually is higher than the cost of a new tv
