Hello, to get the most out of these forums, please try to provide detailed information in your posts, and include pictures where possible. A line accross your screen doesnt provide a lot of info. That said, start with the basics:

Does it happen on all inputs or just one?

Did you try a different input cable?

Have you checked for or updated your firmware lately?

Is the line always in the same spot or does it move?

And, this sounds like a cliché, but shut it down (unplug too) and power it back up. I have a TV that sometimes just goes black and I have to reboot it.

Hi ibmudpie,

If it's a vertical, pencil thin, black line, it could be a failing T-Con Board, it could be dirty LVDS cable, or it could be a burnt pin on the T-Con Board.

If it's a horizontal, pencil thin, black line, it's the TV panel. No fix for that except to replace the panel.

If it's a vertical, 1 or 2 inch solid bar, various colors (or a solid black color), it could be the Main board, it could be the T-Con Board, it could be the cables that connect the T-Con to the Main Board or all of the above.

If it's a horizontal, 1 or 2 inch solid bar, various colors (or a solid black color), it could be the T-Con Board, Main Board, or TV panel.

We hope this information will help you make a more informed decision on your home needs.

Very Best,

Tai Truong
