 Posted: Sun Jul 02, 2017 12:54 pm Post subject: Horizontal Green Lines - Repair or Replace? |
 |
|
So, I have a Sharp Aquios LCD, a good 8-10 years old. Started showing horizontal green lines awhile back. Weird thing is if I unplugged the power cable and plugged it back in, it fixed the problem. This worked for awhile but now the lines are there 100% of the time. The flicker and fluctuate but I've tried different cords, outlets, etc...and its still there. I'll attach a picture.
But, my main question is if it looks like a problem worth fixing. I'd pay $50 bucks to fix it and don't really have the money to buy a new TV, but my gut is saying to fix this thing will be $200 or more, which at that point I could get a pretty good new 4k TV for $500-$800 bucks.
What do you guys think?

| Whether I go with A-q-u-i-o-s (About 85,600 results) or A-q-u-o-s (About 1,200,000 results), that is a lot of results to have to go through. |

| He's cleverly trying to tell you that we need a model number to help you. No Pro TV repairman is going to fix it for $50, if that is what you are asking. |

Any blinking front panel LEDs?
Anything suspicious noted once back of set is removed (Puffed/Leaky capacitors or smoke damage)? Especially on Power board.
Try carefully unplugging ribbon type cables at tcon and reseating? |

No blinking on the front panel. I'll check for damage and try resetting the ribbon cables. Thats a good idea. |
